For those of us that work in the area of HR, the two basic commodities that we deal in are jobs and people—our basic mission is fitting the right person to the right job and ensuring that we maximize their experience in the organization. The more successful we are at doing this, the more engag...
I have been reflecting about compensation practices in the West and how they have evolved. A very long time ago, people paid for output: bartering in kind or services. For example, a farmer used his crop as “currency” and might exchange a bushel of grain for some service he wished perfor...
If we look back into the past, historically, we as human beings farmed or hunted or traded with our parents—we toiled alongside them in the fields, went hunting with them and carried home the game together, or helped them load up the boat with goods to go to the trading post downriver. In the ...

Decision making in organizations tends to be somewhat amorphous. Great organizations have a system and culture of decision making that most people are aware of, even though they probably will not be able to articulate it clearly...
Most of us are aware of the news over the last few days about the spurt in growth of the U.S. economy. This has created a sense of optimism that we are finally emerging from the recession, which is now being referred to as The Great Recession...
One of the things that I have noticed is that most leaders tend to be optimists. As I stop to reflect about this, it occurs to me that there’s a fairly simple reason for this—not many people would like to follow a negative person. So, if you aspire toward leadership, you are better off b...
While the second quarter of 2009 showed a global economy rebounding strongly, the third quarter of 2009 Employee Confidence scores indicate that recovery is not going to be a straight line of positively improving results...
I don’t know about you but I am getting tired of listening to sales pitches or promises that are just substantially not true, contain misdirection or are purposely vague. For instance a certain cable company has been calling me two sometimes three times per week trying to get me to sign up for...
At over 100,000 readers the popularity of this blog is well beyond my expectations. (And I am assuming you all can’t be relatives). Once a year, I review the most popular postings, try to wrap a bit of a theme around them and turn them into a short book of essays on organizational and individu...
This is a reprint of an article I wrote on the 5th year anniversary of 911. Five years is a long time, yet it seems like only yesterday… Many of us remember in exacting detail what we did as those tragic events unfolded on September 11th, 2001. I was pulling into a parking s...
Among the activities we undertook as part of our summer vacation in the Adirondacks was to hike up Azure Mountain...
Clearly, the macroeconomic conditions have begun to improve. Most economists are talking about global growth definitely becoming a part of the 4th quarter of this year, if not the 3rd quarter...
“Taxes are the price we pay for a civilized society.” Oliver Wendell Homes Jr. – 1904 Above the door at 1111 Constitution Ave., Washington DC IRS Headquarters It has been raining for what seems like most of the summer. I don’t know how much rain in total we have h...
The unemployment rate continues to climb. Now approaching 10% in the US, it is also increasing across Asia-Pacific and Europe. Numerous training programs have been set up in the US to help job-seeking people re-equip themselves for a new line of work after being laid off. Based on what I’ve se...
