SHRM's recent study reveals a startling truth: incivility is all too common in our daily lives and workplaces. With a Civility Index score of just 42.3 out of 100, it's clear that we need to take action to foster more respectful and empathetic environments. Let's be catalysts for change and join SHRM in starting 1 million civil conversations in the workplace and beyond. By embracing civility, we can create spaces where individuals and businesses thrive. #CivilityAtWork

Iron sharpens iron, and this is true for HR professionals! Had the opportunity and privilege to attend this year’s SHRM conference for the first time in nearly a decade. It was great to gain new insights while also affirming existing practices and strategies. #HumanResources #HR #education #lifelonglearning

HR friends, you did an awesome job this week. Even if what you did seems invisible, I see you! We in HR need to continue being there for each other. Continuing to congratulate the innovation we see. Highlighting the work done behind the scenes to bring our field forward. It may feel like a small step, but trust me, it is this series of smalls steps that is completely transforming HR. Thanks for contributing to a space that continues to become more and more interesting to work in. #hr #peership #growth

I have been busier than ever in my HR Search world, with interviews taking place in five different states this week! During one interview round in Florida, a VP of HR candidate met with the ELT in a group setting. The conversation focused heavily on employee engagement. My candidate asked the leadership team two critical questions: - Who do you want to be? - What do you want your employees to say about you? These are powerful questions when discussing the actual culture of your business. In my opinion, culture becomes real when the ELT embodies the answers to these questions and employees genuinely feel it. Culture isn't just a top-down directive—it's seen, felt, echoed, and believed. So, is culture a “touchy-feely” HR word, or is it a critical driver of overall business success? My two cents: 💡 Culture affects employee engagement = which impacts productivity = high productivity leads to better performance and higher output. 💡 Culture affects talent retention = good culture reduces turnover rates = leading to lower costs associated with hiring and training new staff. 💡 Culture affects financial performance = engaged employees contribute to increased performance and profitability. 💡 Culture affects reputation = investors, customers, and other stakeholders are more likely to trust and support a company with a strong cultural foundation. #culture #employeeengagement #humanresources
