Time is more than money. It’s also education, progress, growth, and potential. While you can’t measure these benefits on a time card, they make all the difference in the success of your employees and your organization. Facilitating effective time management is one of HR’s most crucial duties.
Join Erin Boettge of BizLibrary and Cassie Whitlock of BambooHR as we explore time management, both how to teach sound principles to individual employees and how to remove distractions at the organizational level.
Tough Comp Conversations: A Guide For Doing Them RightShelly Myers
Comp can be tricky… after all, few things carry as much emotional weight as comp. And with the increased transparency in the market, combined with our collective propensity to rate ourselves against others, the frequency of these very difficult conversations are increasing. To top it all off, they’re mostly being had by managers who are not ready for them, which is frightening, because getting these conversations wrong can be incredibly costly.
In this webinar will deconstruct some of the psychology around comp. We’ll take an analytic look at comp’s role in the employee experience, and then we’ll get really tactical with guidance on very specific compensation conversations. We’ll also talk about the interplay between comp and culture, and provide insight into how you can pave the path for these conversations to go smoother, even before they ever happen.
We hope you’ll join Payscale and BambooHR in this important discussion.
How Hybrid Work Impacts the Employee ExperienceBambooHR
Join BambooHR and VerifiedFirst for a session on how the hybrid workforce model impacts the employee experience and how your organization can use this time to improve employee satisfaction.
A recent study found that the profit margins of organizations that are more advanced in HR analytics (also known as people analytics) are 56 percent higher than those of less advanced organizations. With the data and analytical systems available today, HR can have a bigger positive impact on critical business issues than ever before. HR analytics can help organizations reap benefits across a number of domains, from hiring the right people to onboarding effectively to reducing attrition of high-value employees.
Yet even though HR departments are generating more data than ever before, they often struggle to turn their data into valuable insights. Recent research from BambooHR found that while 58 percent of HR professionals believe HR analytics are very important, only 16 percent viewed themselves as an expert in using HR data.
In this webinar, HR experts from PayScale and BambooHR will dive into how HR leaders can become proficient in using data to drive change in every area that matters, including recruiting, talent management, productivity, and retention.
Paving the Way: How to Retain and Motivate Your Best EmployeesBambooHR

Navigating the Seven C's of OnboardingShelly Myers
The impressions your new employees make as they join your organization can set the course for their long-term experience. Social psychologist Amy Cuddy of Harvard Business School found that 80 to 90 percent of an overall first impression focuses on two aspects: trustworthiness and competence. An effective onboarding process will leave the right impression, from the small steps that convey warmth to a continuing experience that proves your organization’s effectiveness.

People Are the Pulse of Your Organization: How to Keep a Healthy Heart RateBambooHR
From sustaining the rest of the body to delivering the messages that help us grow and react, the circulatory system is one of the strongest centers of life. A healthy heartbeat is constant, enduring, and stabilizing. When faced with stress, it adapts and takes steps to return to its baseline. Unless you push it beyond its limits, the heartbeat will provide a lifetime of possibility.
Your people are the heartbeat of your organization. Their efforts and collaboration sustain your organization as you work toward your mission and goals. Setting up the right framework can help you keep these employees engaged and productive, in spite of cycles of stress and lag time. This is an important practice: the 2017 Global Benefits Attitudes Survey from Willis Towers Watson found that 57 percent of the employees who claimed to be experiencing high stress levels reported being disengaged.
Just as several factors influence heart health, there are several components to optimize in your engagement efforts. This panel discussion from the Small and Medium Business Alliance will explore how to recognize the cycle of engagement, both individually and on an organizational level, while providing insights and best practices to help you keep your organization healthy.
You will learn:
• Which trends are shaping employee engagement and experience in today’s workplace
• Best practices for re-engaging employees and amplifying the employee experience
• Insights from examples where company culture has influenced employee engagement
• Metrics that help evaluate employee satisfaction
• Frameworks to help you establish a better experience for your employees
Today our organizations have to move faster than ever before. Getting our organizations to move fast, means the systems in our organizations have to function smoothly, without friction. And when it comes to creating value, there’s no more important system than our people systems. Because businesses don’t create value, people do.
But how do you remove friction from our people systems? How do you get our people systems to function more smoothly to produce more value. It all comes down to learning how to optimize around soft skills. If hard skills are like the cogs in the machine, then soft skills are like the oil that makes those cogs work together smoothly. If you have all of one, but none of the other, than the system will break down.
Join us in this practical webinar where we break down the difference between hard skills and soft skills. You’ll walk away with a solid understanding of not just what soft skills are, but why they’re so important today, and what’s more, a practical checklist for how to start making soft-skills optimization a part of your HR processes.

However, for the first time in history, we are dealing with prospective talent from five generations, a situation which could prove incredibly valuable but could also present massive challenges for any growing organization.

DeVry University Career Advisory Board: What the Most Successful Job Seekers ...DeVry University
In the interest of providing actionable advice to job seekers, the Career Advisory Board set out to discover what candidates who are perceived as the “complete package” are doing in order to secure a desirable job offer. In our Successful Job Seekers research, we surveyed over 550 professionals of varying ages and in different roles and industries. Our respondents had one thing in common: they were either recruited by a desirable company and received an offer without having to search for a new job at all (referred to as passive job seekers), or they received an interview for a job they ultimately accepted less than six months after starting a search (referred to as active job seekers).
The following report summary highlights the results of the research, including that the most effective candidates target, customize, and are organized and realistic about their opportunities. Now that we’ve learned from the best, we aim to educate the general job seeking population on improving job search efficiency and outcomes.

Crawl, Walk, Run: Scaling Candidate Engagement for Every OrganizationShelly Myers
As more and more organizations realize the benefits of an engaged workforce, they are turning their attention to fostering that engagement before a new employee even walks in the door on day one—what we call candidate engagement.
And for good reason. According to LinkedIn’s Talent Trends Report, 83 percent of candidates say a negative interview experience can change their mind about a role or company they once liked. On the other hand, 87 percent of candidates say a positive interview experience can change their mind about a role or company they once doubted.
The benefits of candidate engagement and excellent candidate experience are clear. However, with so many tips, hacks, and strategies out there, it can be hard to pinpoint where you should invest your time, money, and effort to get the greatest results. You need to know which ideas will work for your unique organization.
Join JD Conway of BambooHR and Chad Roudebush of Jobvite as they break down scalable candidate engagement strategies you can use in your organization whether you’re a team of five or one hundred.
The Recruiting Sweet Spot - Aligning Candidate and Employer ExpectationsShelly Myers
What does it take to match a candidate with a job position? Ask this question, and you’ll get a different answer from everyone involved in the recruiting process. Some will prioritize skills and education, while others insist that finding a good culture fit is most important. Some recruiters just hope they can find a candidate that matches long list of qualifications they received from their hiring manager. And when employers finally find a candidate that clears these hurdles, it can still be difficult to know whether they’ve made a good hire or if the candidate will job hop in the first six months.
What is the key to hiring employees who will stay? A Gallup poll found that while 54 percent of disengaged employees would leave their organizations for a raise of 20 percent or less, only 37 percent of engaged employees would. To earn loyalty that’s stronger than the lure of a greater salary, organizations need to engage their new hires—and that process starts during recruiting.
Join BambooHR and SkillSurvey to explore how to optimize your interviews to find a long-term match for the position. When you can clarify what your organization needs and verify who your candidates are, you can make accurate decisions on who aligns best with your mission, vision, values, and objectives.
How to Ignite Your Engagement Strategy with Goals and RecognitionShelly Myers
The majority of organizations out there recognize that employee engagement is important. Yet only 12 percent of responding companies in one recent survey reported they are happy with their organization’s current levels of engagement. It’s clear there’s room for many firms to improve their engagement strategy.
A smart employee engagement strategy could include many different pieces, from fair compensation to career development opportunities. But two of the most important components are goal setting and recognition. Without these two elements working in sync, your organization won’t be able to move full speed ahead toward engagement.

How to Roll Candidate Experience into Employee EngagementShelly Myers
By now, you’ve probably heard how important a positive candidate experience can be to your hiring efforts. It can help your organization hire faster and attract better candidates. A great candidate experience can also help you secure new hires when it comes to decision time, as 87% of candidates say a positive interview experience can change their minds about a role or company they once doubted.
The connection between candidate experience and hiring success is undeniable. When you create a positive candidate experience, you create candidate engagement, which you can roll into into employee engagement through smart onboarding and other strategies. With strong engagement, you can retain the talent you’ve worked so hard to recruit. Join experts from BambooHR and Lever as they explain how to use candidate experience to boost employee engagement and retention in your organization.

Getting Smart About Compensation: How to Know If You’re Doing It RightShelly Myers
Compensation is a core component of the employee experience, which itself is core to all of the stuff that really matters… like engagement, satisfaction, retention, and performance. These are the things that an organization relies on to succeed, because businesses don’t create value, people do. Our approach to comp is critical to our organization's success, yet all too often we're not really all that disciplined about it. And all too often we fail to recognize just how important it is. It's time to change all that.
In this webinar we'll arm you with solid economic evidence of the organizational impact of compensation, giving you crucial ammunition you can use to go advocate for a more disciplined approach. We'll also go into the practical steps you can take to step up your own approach to comp by building a comp strategy, implementing a market-based pay structure, building pay ranges, training managers, and so much more.

Conversations about pay are often perceived as scary, demoralizing, or just boring. However, done right, pay talk can be quite motivating.

A life without stress can sometimes be a life without significance.
But how you interpret the body’s response makes all the
difference. A lot of new research shows that it’s possible to
develop your self-awareness to the extent that you can approach
something in a positive way, that for another person would be
negatively stressful. Another person might feel flooded or
overwhelmed, but you can develop a way to approach the data in
a constructive manner.
