También introduce el Robot Educator, una serie de tutoriales que muestran cómo programar un robot de dos motores utilizando las funciones principales del software.
The document discusses introducing solar panels to power the operations of Global Steel Industries in Dubai. It outlines the company's pipe manufacturing process and analyzes factors to consider for the solar panel project such as weather suitability, electricity requirements, costs, and impacts on productivity and the environment. Implementing solar power would provide a renewable energy source and reduce costs in the long run, but requires high upfront investment and could temporarily disrupt production during installation.

When it comes to investing in diversity, 71% of talent professionals
report that achieving gender parity* at their company is a
top priority.1 And while there is a long way to go to get there, a
thoughtful, data-driven recruiting strategy can help you make
meaningful gains toward that goal.
To understand how gender impacts the candidate journey, we
analyzed LinkedIn data on billions of interactions between
companies and candidates from job applications to recruiter
outreach and hires. The results show that while women and men
explore opportunities similarly, there’s a clear gap in how they apply
to jobs — and in how companies recruit them.
The good news is that this data is actionable. This report will help
you improve every step of the job seeker journey on LinkedIn, from
how you position your employer brand and interact with candidates,
to benchmarking your gender diversity hiring goals against your
industry. Your push for #BalanceForBetter can start today.

The Rules Do Apply: Navigating HR ComplianceAggregage
https://www.humanresourcestoday.com/frs/26903483/the-rules-do-apply--navigating-hr-compliance
HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.
This is a particular pain point for small HR departments, or HR departments of 1, that lack compliance teams and in-house labor attorneys. So, what do you do?
The goal of this webinar is to make you smarter in knowing what you should be focused on and the questions you should be asking. It will also provide you with resources for making compliance more manageable.
Objectives:
• Understand the regulatory landscape, including labor laws at the local, state, and federal levels
• Best practices for developing, implementing, and maintaining effective compliance programs
• Resources and strategies for staying informed about changes to labor laws, regulations, and compliance requirements

5 Simple Metrics to Measure
Talent Brand Success
Because we’re going to refer back to this a lot throughout the presentation, we wanted to take a step back and make sure everyone understands exactly what Talent Brand means.
And guess what, it means that what you share from a company perspective needs to match what others are promoting. And guess what, no matter how hard you try to totally control what they’re promoting, you can’t. But what you can do is shape what they’re saying by providing direction and making sure you’re on the same page with your employees.
How do you do that? By being authentic and providing a transparent view on what it’s really like to work at your company.
The case for talent brand has continually grown stronger, particularly in the past few years. At this point, we know it’s important and we have data to back it up.
Over ¾ of talent leaders believe that talent brand has a significant impact on ability to hire
50% average reduction in cost per hire
28% lower turnover
56% of talent professionals are actually making talent brand a top priority for their organization in 2015
I hope that you all agree that investing and prioritizing Talent Brand is no longer optional.
And not only are industry sources, like LinkedIn, telling you that talent brand is important, but so are candidates. LinkedIn ran a survey last year with over 18k professionals in 26 countries around the world – and found that the most important factor in considering a new job is whether that prospective company is perceived as a great place to work. In other words, companies with a strong, influential, and authentic talent brand.
With a quick Google search of “having fun at work” these were the top image results…. Look how much fun they’re having! Who here has a company office and culture like this?
Has anyone had a chair race in their workplace? Threw a basketball across your desks with another “buddy”… or even hoola-hooped?
Actually though, raise of hands if you have, cause I will would work at your company in a second!
Lets all say it together….What people see is WHAT PEOPLE EXPECT. When developing or promoting your Talent Brand, just remember, Transparency is key. If your brand is promoting “hoola-hooping” in the office and I join your company, and I am NOT allowed to do it… guess what?
I’m out.
Add more small companies
Xactly career page – show real employees
Be Real: What you say about yourcompany must be true foryour employees. If not, they’llsee through you and so willthe marketplace. Divideyour desired messages intothree buckets: what you candefinitely back up, what’s truein some circumstances, andwhat you’d like to say butcan’t just yet.
Be Personal: Go back to the individualstories gathered duringthe research phase. Storiesare more easily rememberedand are motivational foremployees. Those you featurewill be proud to participate.
Be Brave: Admit some negatives –people will believe youmore. If you want to claima message that you just can’tsay yet, identify a related onethat’s still enticing but can bedelivered without eye-rolling.Brainstorm options with yourmarketing team.
Be Consistent: Think about how to alignthis messaging with yourcompany’s overall brand.There should be strongconsistency between the two.
The Xactly Careers Page is another example of transparency. By visiting the Careers Page you get an idea of the culture right away.
I also wanted to call them out for putting badges on their banner highlighting making “great places to work” lists.
Today there is so much noise out there, that, on average, you only 5-10 seconds to grab someone’s attentions and only milliseconds before someone forms an opinion about you.
You have so little time, that you have to get it right the first time. And if you don’t, someone else probably well. So often you see generic content, but generic content often fails to attract.
Who here knows the website/company Amazon?
When you arrive at the homepage, you'll find not only special offers and featured products, but if you've been to Amazon.com before, you'll also find some recommendations just for you (Netflix also does this). Amazon knows you by name and tries to be your personal shopper. The embedded marketing techniques that Amazon employs to personalize your experience are probably the best example of the company's overall approach to relevancy: Know your customer very, very well.
As a consumer, people have come to expect it. Google does this with their search engine. They’ll make recommendations on what you’re searching for, BEFORE you’ve even finished typing in the search. How annoying is it when they don’t recommend what you’re looking for. Like you have to take 2 extra seconds and FINISH TYPING IT OUT.
This has come to be expected in the consumer world, so why shouldn’t we expect it in the Recruitment world?
Every year we survey all different types of professionals to understand what motivates them to look or be interested in a new company or job. We call it “Employee Value Proposition” or EVP data. So when we talk about “relevancy” we actually have the data to prove it. As we say at LinkedIn, if you can’t measure it, it didn’t happen.
At a high-level, here’s what motivates Women when considering a job vs. Men. At first glance, it looks like they have similar interests. But once we move past the first three attribute, we see HUGE shifts.
Here’s an example from BP. They know they have seconds to grab your attention, so they’ve tailored content specifcilly to who they’re looking to attract.
Who are they looking to attract?
Not everyone needs to know who you are, just the people you care about
IBM
Talent owns the market – why should they choose you?
Social Media isn’t free
Just posting content and letting it sit is the jobs equivalent of posting and praying
Personalization, targeted messaging is really important in consumer marketing.
Pick your highest priority talent pools and build your storyline around those personas
So who here knows what “OpenStack” is? Oh good – cause neither do we.
But do you know who does? Engineers. And apparently they really care about it. So when Walmart developed their eCommerce team and needed to compete with the likes of Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. for Engineers, they tailored and promoted their content to what drives and motivated Engineers - and apparently OpenStack is one of those things.
And it worked. Now, obviously Walmart was able to leverage their consumer brand, but, they also respected that what drives and motivates an Engineer is different to what the rest of us. And so they spoke to that audience.
So who wins this round? Big Companies.
Why?
Well we’re here to “beat a dead horse” so they say and we want to reiterate, that if you want to reach a specific audience, speak to them.
We have the lowest unemployement rate in 8 years. It’s a job seekers market. The only way to get their attention and stand out amongst a sea of other companies, is to tailor your content.
Every year we survey all different types of professionals to understand what motivates them to look or be interested in a new company or job. We call it “Employee Value Proposition” or EVP data. Feel free to reach out to your relationship manager and they can share with you about what resonates with your target audience.

According to the 2015 Edelman Trust Barometer, people are 3x more likely to trust information coming from employees on your culture. Use this to your advantage! Find those “talent magnets” within your company that love what they do and enjoy sharing that with others and feature them. You don’t even need a blog or video on your career site to do this – use the LinkedIn publishing platform
amazon
Having a talent brand hashtag is not only a great way to market your efforts, but it helps you create a social media stream reflecting your company culture from different points of view. For example, your own talent brand team can post photos and updates and use your company hashtag. But also your employees can use the same hashtag to share their work experiences, making your company more relevant and discoverable to potential candidates.
Start with the end in mind. What are you trying to accomplish – that will tell you what to measure
The quest to quantify is, and always will be part science and part art. The two are interconnected and both needed for an appropriate evaluation of any type of strategy. Talent leaders today are more empowered than ever to investigate, test, and quantify the connection between talent branding and talent acquisition success. If you want to continue gaining support (and let’s be honest, budget) for the art of talent branding, you need the science of ROI measurement to back you up.
So this all sounds great, but how do specifically prove the value of YOUR talent brand?
But how do you prove your talent brand initiatives are moving the needle?
When we think about the quest to quantify our success, with so many moving parts that aren’t interconnected, the key challenges we face are below:
Different systems (platforms, ATS, different campaigns with different levels of engagement)
Marketing/TA success is different
What does success look like, lack of benchmarks
No established performance indicators
What are the success metrics of those that are viewing/judging our performance. It’s going to differ from department to department
In order to track trends, we have to have quantifier. Within your Talent Acquisition goals, we’ve found four simple metrics that we can focus on to tell your success story.
So once you’ve set out to build and maintain your talent brand, you need a way to measure it. We’re going to look at four key metrics today (plus a bonus one!) and discuss how to specifically tie these metrics to your talent brand success.
Engagement with key talent pools (social media follower quality)
Talent response rate
Time to hire
Who are your Followers across all channels?
Are they marketing/TA/mixed?
Word cloud: Are they software engineers? Do they work in your industry?
If you really look at who your followers are, you’ll get a better picture of what this base of people is facilitating within your business. Who are you communicating with in your channels? Are they separate?
Odds are, your Follower base across social channels is going to be a mix of both talent brand and consumer brand interest. Not all followers are created equal, and you want to build a targeted following of people that fit the criteria you’re looking for – but with the merge between TB and CB, you have to also understand where their value sits. Instead of just knowing how many followers you have, what you really want to know is who exactly your followers are. On LinkedIn, you’re able to see your follower demographics by function, seniority, industry, and company size. You can also see how many of your followers are current employees.
Once you know your follower audience breakdown, you can adjust your messaging for those varying audience segments.
This begins the path to setting benchmarks for success.
The next metric we’re going to look at is your talent response rate. If you’ve done a good job building awareness, you should expect a higher response rate. And think about starting your outreach with your followers. We’ve found that company page followers are 81% more likely to respond to an inMail!
Speak to quality of hire, and cultural fit when engaged audiences start before the hiring process
If you’re actively promoting the type of culture that your company is, people can start to self select, and it’s not really applicant quality to cultural fit. We @ LinkedIn we are big on hiring cultural fit, but if you’re not a cultural fit, then we overlook you because that is the #1 determining factor if you’re going to succeed here.
Once you have people responding, you need to measure whether or not they are the quality people you are looking for.
Quality is generally a subjective measure, but I’m going to show you how you can turn it into something that’s quantifiable. First though, you need to define what quality means for your company. What makes someone a good fit for your company and a good fit for a role? Once you’ve established these characteristics, you can begin to easily classify candidates as either quality or non-quality.
There are number of ways you can start to track this. You might label them in your ATS, track them with tags in Recruiter, or some other method that works for you!
The fourth metric we’ll look at today is time to hire. Time to hire isn’t specific to talent branding, it’s used across the board, but you can tie changes in it to talent brand. If you’re building a strong talent brand and filling your pipeline with qualified candidates, your time to hire should be faster. We actually found that companies with a strong talent brand on LinkedIn report a 20% faster rate of hire!
Talk about: investing in your talent brand creates an engaged community ready to be reached out to: build your pipeline of high quality talent (ideally). The conversation begins way before the open position is approved. What elements of this conversation have you impacted? How much easier is your recruiters job when your total potential candidates already know about your values, your culture, and your team? There’s less conversations that are necesssary to describe what it’s like to work for you, and saving time is saving money.
already started the conversation before the on rec opens up. The conversation has included: information ab
This is a simplified approach. So when looking at this, we’d like to get you and your hiring managers thinking about this topic. Outside of Sales, what is the revenue associated with each role and team? If we can quantify that, we can frame the question in a different light. This creates urgency around your initiatives.
Change the conversation with your hiring managers and create urgency around your initiatives.
[NOTE: I would maybe recommend going through a live example of one of these on a whiteboard or just talking through it.]
On a related note, before we dive into the metrics you can use to measure your Talent Brand success, it’s important to know what cost is to your business of having roles sit open. Knowing that cost can help strengthen your ROI story later on and show that the cost you invested in building your Talent Brand saved the company costs it would have incurred if roles had sat open for a longer period of time.
Does anyone have any questions about these?
So who wins this round? Big Companies.
Why?
Well we’re hear to “beat a dead horse” so they say and we want to reiterate, that if you want to reach a specific audience, speak to them.
We have the lowest unemployement rate in 8 years. It’s a job seekers market. The only way to get their attention and stand out amongst a sea of other companies, is to tailor your content.
Every year we survey all different types of professionals to understand what motivates them to look or be interested in a new company or job. We call it “Employee Value Proposition” or EVP data. Feel free to reach out to your relationship manager and they can share with you about what resonates with your target audience.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither is your talent brand.
Company reputations are built slowly, over time, influenced
by a variety of factors. When your boss demands data
next week, gently mention that talent branding is about
continually growing brand relevance and nurturing ongoing
relationships with target talent pools over time.
Here is an example of how to visualize your success. This graph shows both the growth of total followers and the growth of a specific segment of followers, in this case, tech followers. This allows you to track the growth rates of individual segments against the whole. If you’re focused on messaging to certain segments, you should see a faster growth rate for those segments vs. the overall growth.
