The document discusses the importance of employee development for organizations and outlines several low-cost initiatives that HR can implement to boost employee development. It notes that while companies claim to value development, often there is a disconnect between what they say and do. As a result, employees take development into their own hands through online courses and social media. The document provides recommendations for HR to strengthen their role in employee development, including setting clear expectations, including development in performance reviews, and implementing no-cost programs like in-house book clubs, workshops, online chats, and blog subscriptions.

Addressing Mental Health in the Workplace
Let’s face it: Work can be stressful. In fact, the Attitudes in the American Workplace VII report found that 80% of workers feel stress on the job, and nearly half say they need help in learning how to manage stress. Although the conversation around mental health is becoming less stigmatized, it’s still a difficult topic to discuss in the workplace. In addition to the red tape and legal concerns, leaders may not feel comfortable advising others because they, themselves, are also grappling with mental health concerns.

The High EQ Leader: How Emotional Intelligence Can Impact Your Organization

Horizontal vs Vertical Career Pathing: How to Make Promotions Work
Receiving a promotion is the epitome of an employee’s growth and success, but many companies are misusing promotions. As high performers reach their peak, they’re being promoted to managers solely based on performance. This type of career pathing is creating a domino effect in companies. The newly promoted managers often do not have the skillset to manage, therefore their employees become disengaged and your bottom line starts suffering more and more. How can we stop this domino effect from happening?
Join Tiffany Kummer from BizLibrary as she explains her strategy for career pathing using two different approaches, vertical and horizontal. Not everyone is meant to manage (or wants to), and that is okay. Tiffany will show you how you can still advance your high performers without putting them and your company in an unfavorable position.

Career Pathing
Career Path by TalentGuard transforms how employee development is managed in the work environment. Employees are looking at careers in new ways. For them, it has become less about ascending methodically from job to job within a single company until the corner office is theirs. Instead of climbing the corporate career ladder — vertical and inflexible — employees are navigating career lattices. Career lattices provide strategic insight into lateral, upward and downward career paths.
Today, employees feel stumped, bored, and frustrated in their current positions, likely because they’re craving change, growth and development. It’s becoming easier and easier for people to change jobs, especially considering the growth of online job boards and company careers pages, which make it less cumbersome to both find opportunities and pursue them.
When this problem is left unresolved, companies will face major turnover and job satisfaction issues, forcing them to look externally for employees that fit their experience and competency requirements. For many companies, a constantly in-flux workforce has become a daily challenge of doing business. This trend is due in part to companies either placing an insufficient emphasis on supporting the professional development of their employees or simply lacking the skills and expertise to do so. Investing more time and energy into recruiting, holding onto, and developing their best employees can be unexpectedly complicated. Yet, it would be highly beneficial for companies to develop their existing employees in order to create a steady source of highly qualified talent from within.
Career pathing resolves these issues through a structured, communicated and holistic development plan to help employees visualize their career growth within the company. In companies that organize themselves this way, employees are better equipped to:
Enhance career progress
Identify and pursue employment opportunities within the company
Excel through aligned learning and development
Receive coaching and mentoring from managerial, HR and business leaders
Without active career planning, employees will be much more likely to see their best opportunities as lying elsewhere and leave for competitors in pursuit of their self-interest. Career planning assistance programs are not reserved for thriving, expanding companies with a wealth of resources to devote to human resource initiatives. Rather, career pathing is for every organization, whether it is flat, single-location or, multinational, whether in the high-tech, government, consumer packaged goods sectors, or any other industry. Keeping employees motivated, positive, and productive during stressful times is not easy, but actively providing career guidance can help maintain morale and reinforce a sense of loyalty when it’s needed most.

Seven competencies of a program managers’ personal development
How to align your own goals and metrics to your company’s goals for improved results

Performance Reviews - How to Really Make Them About Performance | Webinar 12....
In the field of employee relations and labor/management conflicts, sometimes we have to work hard to find things about which both sides (employee and management) agree. One such area is performance reviews or appraisals. It’s just about universally true that nobody likes performance appraisals. But, the effective, accurate and objective evaluation of each employee’s performance holds the key to improving the overall performance of your entire organization. In this webinar we'll discuss:
The role of performance management
Why we do performance reviews

Career Pathing
Career Path by TalentGuard transforms how employee development is managed in the work environment. Employees are looking at careers in new ways. For them, it has become less about ascending methodically from job to job within a single company until the corner office is theirs. Instead of climbing the corporate career ladder — vertical and inflexible — employees are navigating career lattices. Career lattices provide strategic insight into lateral, upward and downward career paths.
Today, employees feel stumped, bored, and frustrated in their current positions, likely because they’re craving change, growth and development. It’s becoming easier and easier for people to change jobs, especially considering the growth of online job boards and company careers pages, which make it less cumbersome to both find opportunities and pursue them.
When this problem is left unresolved, companies will face major turnover and job satisfaction issues, forcing them to look externally for employees that fit their experience and competency requirements. For many companies, a constantly in-flux workforce has become a daily challenge of doing business. This trend is due in part to companies either placing an insufficient emphasis on supporting the professional development of their employees or simply lacking the skills and expertise to do so. Investing more time and energy into recruiting, holding onto, and developing their best employees can be unexpectedly complicated. Yet, it would be highly beneficial for companies to develop their existing employees in order to create a steady source of highly qualified talent from within.
Career pathing resolves these issues through a structured, communicated and holistic development plan to help employees visualize their career growth within the company. In companies that organize themselves this way, employees are better equipped to:
Enhance career progress
Identify and pursue employment opportunities within the company
Excel through aligned learning and development
Receive coaching and mentoring from managerial, HR and business leaders
Without active career planning, employees will be much more likely to see their best opportunities as lying elsewhere and leave for competitors in pursuit of their self-interest. Career planning assistance programs are not reserved for thriving, expanding companies with a wealth of resources to devote to human resource initiatives. Rather, career pathing is for every organization, whether it is flat, single-location or, multinational, whether in the high-tech, government, consumer packaged goods sectors, or any other industry. Keeping employees motivated, positive, and productive during stressful times is not easy, but actively providing career guidance can help maintain morale and reinforce a sense of loyalty when it’s needed most.

5 reasons training can be a bust!
Is your training paying dividends: employee development, behavioral change, and or better leadership? Smart CEOs realize that organizational success really begins and ends with the employees’ development that supports day-to-day actions that sustain organizational success. Today, due to the Internet and the ability to conduct evaluations, online surveys, multi-rater 360˚ feedback, webinar training, and live streaming, programed learning modules create formats for on-going talent and training development. So many opportunities, so little behavioral change! Why isn’t training working?

Learning Objective: Examine techniques that help evaluate employee value
The job is going great, and you really enjoy the work you are doing. The next step is the performance review and salary increase. You don’t want to ask for something unreasonable, yet you want to be awarded what is practical and fair for the job. Negotiating is a routine part of daily life and leadership, and approaching it with confidence and skill continually signals that you know your worth. This session will help you to understand your value to your company and to develop a plan to justify the value that you bring to your company. Join us to discuss strategies and techniques that can help you determine your worth and justify your assessment of your value to your company.
At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:
a. Quantify their bottom-line contribution to their organization.
b. Develop techniques that will ensure optimal performance that justifies a salary review.
c. Identify methods for facilitating a discussion on fair compensation for both the employee and company.
d. Outline a plan to negotiate a salary increase.
Talent management for SMB
Small businesses have been at a competitive disadvantage compared with larger companies when it comes to access to affordable and effective tools and resources. Thanks to improvements in HR technology and the resulting lower costs, as well as social media, small businesses now have access to peers as well as cost effective high functioning talent management systems.
Small business owners and HR leaders often recognize that employees are the most valuable asset but taking the first step towards identifying and executing an effective talent management strategy that can lead to engaged employees and small business success is often not top priority.
Systems and strategies are equally important when attempting to ensure results in small companies as they are in large organizations. Statics show that organizations that implement effective talent management solutions outperform like companies by in excess of 22%.
