TalentCulture #WorkTrends

The TalentCulture #TChat Show is back live on Wednesday, May 28, 2014, from 6:30-7:00 pm ET for radio, 7:00-8:00 pm ET for the Twitter chat. Last week we talked about the inspire or retire leadership theorem, and this week we're talking about how to visualize real-time talent alignment. Employee turnover is a common challenge for organizations of all shapes and size and industries. It's an overgrown and thorny path that leaders and HR teams walk bare foot daily, with no compass to guide them. This wild "talent cycle" can create poor climates and cultures where your people are forced to scramble and hire reactively each time an employee makes a move toward the door. Focused on the people not the processes combined real-time talent alignment technology allow leaders to better visualize their human capital investment, while simultaneously engaging employees and driving performance. Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we learn more about visualizing real-time talent alignment with this week's guests: Andre Lavoie, CEO and co-founder of ClearCompany; and Matt Norman, a Dale Carnegie Training franchise president. Thank you to our sponsors and partners: RIVS, GreatRated of Great Place to Work, TalentWise, GloboForce, SAP/SuccessFactors, PeopleFluent, Red Branch Media and HRmarketer Insight.

The TalentCulture #TChat Show is back live on Wednesday, May 21, 2014, from 6:30-7:00 pm ET for radio, 7:00-8:00 pm ET for the Twitter chat. Last week we talked about talent-centric recruiting experience, and this week we're talking about the inspire or retire leadership theorem. Yes, that's what we said. The first part of this theorem is a reminder that from the junior employee to senior management, leadership is everyone's business. When organizations are in a VUCA environment (volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity), they are usually flatter and everyone must lead. You'll learn more about the theorem soon, but until then, inspirational leaders encourage their team by example and allow their people to take the lead in accomplishing the organizational vision. The most significant contribution we can make as leaders today is to leave a legacy of inspired leaders behind to take care of tomorrow. We can leverage our skills, talents, and experiences to transform our people into leaders. Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we learn more about the inspire or retire leadership theorem with this week's guest: Thomas S. Narofsky, Founder and Chief Inspirational Officer for the Narofsky Consulting Group, a leadership development, team effectiveness, and executive coaching consultancy.

Last week we talked about employee assistance programs (EAP), and this week we're talking about how to build a culture advantage. Leaders need to connect the right set of improvements to get over the "culture tipping point" where momentum, results and buy-in grows. Culture will be widely accepted as the ultimate differentiator in organizations within the next 25 years. The focus will over-shadow strategy, talent, technology and all other areas.

The TalentCulture #TChat Show is back live on Wednesday, April 2, 2014. #TChat Radio starts at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT) and the convo continues on #TChat Twitter chat from 7-8 pm ET. Last week we talked about authentic leadership, and this week we're going to talk about how to drive high levels of employee engagement. Yes, we continually hear this mantra, but engagement is something we can lead, right now, if we understand our own motivational triggers. According to surveys of over 10 million workers in 150 countries, it's quite clear that growth, recognition, trust and communication are the top four drivers of engagement. In fact, it's critical that we're mindful of our individual engagement triggers, those of your company and as well as your boss (even if he stinks as a boss) to create a great workplace culture. Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we learn more about employee engagement with this week's guest: Kevin Kruse, serial entrepreneur and bestselling author. A special thank you to our sponsors: RIVS, Dice, TalentWise and Globoforce.
