The countdown to the launch of Aaron Delgaty, PhD's book, Working Relationships: Crisis and Resilience at the Heart of Employee Experience, continues! We're sharing a little topic teaser each day until launch day (April 15th!). Take a look at today topic below and tell us what you think. Countdown: 5 days until launch 🚀 Today's topic: Gift-giving Have you ever gotten a shitty gift? Like a really itchy sweater instead of a Gameboy, or a pizza party instead of a raise? Bad gifts happen. It’s part of life. But when they happen at work, and happen consistently, the fallout can be expensive. The circulation of gifts between employees and employers makes the world of work go ‘round. Without gifts, there would be no deadlines met or key performance indicators achieved (at least not consistently). Not sure what to get that special someone - or someones - at work? Check out this year’s hottest guide to professional gift-giving #WorkingRelationships. So what do employers want? What do employees want? Tell us what you think, and read Aaron’s take on the subject through the lens of Reciprocity (chapter 4) next week when this beauty can be all yours! https://lnkd.in/geZMZREU #workingrelationships #giftgiving Bret Starr, Kevin Mangum, Steve S., Ashley Bernard, Lance Haun, Nancy (Pummill) Crabb, Erin Swan, CDE®, JJ La Pata, Jonathan Goodman, Joanna Castle, Erin Magee

Asking questions is a sign of strength and a willingness to learn. 🧠 Don't let fear hold you back from exploring your options. One of our team members faced financial challenges from decisions made without asking what was available to them. I only wish they had reached out to me sooner. Seize the opportunity to empower yourself by asking about your options. 💪 Pro tip: Review the handbook first, bring your question about the broad topic (e.g. qualifying events for benefits) to your HR representative and ask, "Can you tell me what qualifying events are for benefits enrollment?" And then ask broad follow up questions until you understand what is available to you and then, if you wish, share only the facts about your situation. ⚠ Warning: avoid sharing too much information; it may hurt you depending on company culture. #Empowerment #AskAboutYourOptions #ProfessionalDevelopment #HRInsights
