Student Loan Repayment Programs & Other Education Benefits w/ Crystal Frey, SHRM-SCP May 28, 2019

Show notes

Listen to this episode because Comp and Ben has its place in HR.
You can't have a one-size fits all approach to benefits in multi-generational workplaces. Research supports that a large percentage of Americans would look favorably at an organization that provides a student loan repayment program. But what does that look like? And how does it align overall with what organizations are offering in terms of outside and professional development?
This is an episode you're going to want to share!

Key episode takeaway: "Benefits are a culture-building tool that affects turnover. They have to be viewed holistically."

Strategic Planning For HR Teams feat. Katie Powers, SHRM-SCP Apr 30, 2019

Show notes

Listen to this episode to get your strategic mindset on.
Strategic planning should be on your radar as an HR professional; if your organization is known for strategic planning, so should your HR department. You’ll also learn if there is a secret sauce to setting realistic timelines for HR initiatives.

Key episode takeaway: “It all goes back to the culture of the organization we work in. If we don't have support from the top down, it's hard for HR to see how strategic planning and HR are connected.” Interdepartmental relationship management is crucial—keeping up-to-date on other departments and their timelines is essential. No matter how large or small your department is, you can accomplish this without running out of time.

Transformation Over Transaction: Using Lean and Six Sigma in HR feat. Robin Chapekis, SHRM-SCP Apr 17, 2019

Show notes

This is the episode to listen to if you want to get the attention of leadership. Using these methodologies HR professionals can show up with numbers and facts and avoid the "I feel like" trap to describe what's happening in the workplace.
Robin describes Lean as reducing known "waste," Six Sigma addresses the unknown causes to reduce variation in processes, etc.
Key episode takeaway: "HR is relying on the excuse that we understand human behavior. We give ourselves the free pass to ignore the data." Can we really say anyone truly understands human behavior?
