How effectively is government coordinating efforts to get more people into work through healthcare reform?

Measuring HR for business success

For some top execs there is the misconception that Human Resources (HR) is ‘just’ another administrative function – reviews need to be carried out and training needs to be completed just to tick the box.

Engaged Cities – Connecting Citizens to Government Services

Once small and cohesive, today’s cities, including those in the UK, have become large and complex entities. In fact, London, despite being the smallest region in terms of area, occupying 1,600 square kilometres (sq km), less than 1% of the total area of the UK, has a population of over 8 million. This is a larger population today than all but the top four countries at the turn of the last century. So, with this being the case, how can governments maintain meaningful engagement with citizens, businesses, employees and other agencies?

Getting the right measure of HR

In today’s chaotic business world, organisations are continually trying to determine what they need to measure in order to effectively manage their business. There can be a misconception that Human Resources (HR) is ‘just’ another administrative function of a business that needs to be done and doesn’t warrant its own metrics  – training needs to be completed and reviews carried out to tick a box.

Power from the people

Traditionally communications infrastructures have been developed with the sole purpose of serving the corporate user. Individuals have had to adapt and adjust to technology in order to do their jobs.

One secret to salvaging awful training? Tell a Story

Is there anything more boredom inducing (and ineffectual) than PowerPoint training programs filled with endless bullet points? They're dull, impersonal and, chances are, don't make much of an impact on employees. Sound like your company's training programs? That's too bad because training is the foundation of any successful business, and a company's best shot to teach employees, at all levels, the skills they need to succeed. Avoid the missed opportunity and get creative with your training — tell a story.

Spotlight on Technology: Let employees voice their feedback

Employers often gauge how employees feel about the company — its culture, benefits and employee programmes — by sending out surveys. Too often these surveys don't let employees express how they truly feel in their own words...their own voice. More companies are encouraging employees to communicate with coworkers about the employer brand through social collaboration tools and by harnessing new feedback technologies to give employers fresh communication channels.
