We're expanding, and It's amazing to see how many people are ready to give back ♻️ Yesterday we welcomed to our pool of teachers Danielle from eBay, and a few weeks ago David from TikTok and Adriana from Lego. Alessandro and Tommaso started Wibo from 2 questions: 1. What if the brightest minds are willing to give back and share their skills to others? 2. What happens to organizations if everybody can have access to those skills? Well, we’re starting to see the impact of those questions in action! 🚀 Having top leaders like Danielle, David, and Adriana and many others on board means that our community of managers is learning directly from the bests in the industry. This isn't just about leadership theory—it's about real-world insights that are driving companies like eBay, TikTok, and Lego to new heights. Imagine what happens when this knowledge is shared, not just within a select few, but across entire teams and organizations. The potential for growth, innovation, and positive change is limitless, creating a new cycle of great managers 🌱

This week, I attended a Recruiter's Roundtable by Robert E. Willis and gained valuable insights on DEI strategies for Talent Acquisition. Here are some key takeaways businesses can implement to attract more diverse candidates into their pipeline:   📌 Referral Bonus Programs: A great way to enhance engagement and diversify talent. 📌 Career Pathways: Providing clear growth opportunities for employees is crucial. 📌 Pay Transparency: Builds trust and equity within teams. 📌 Cognitive Assessments: Exploring tools like DISC and Gallup Strengths Finder to empower managers.   Other impactful ideas shared included prayer spaces, flexible PTO, sign-on bonuses, webinars to boost employer branding, and recognition boards.   I’m also excited about the upcoming Workforce Development Symposium on October 9th at Minneapolis College, which will cover topics like skills-based hiring, job quality, and inclusive hiring practices. Looking forward to attending this in-person event!   Let’s continue striving for inclusive and empowering workplaces! 💡   #DEI #DiversityAndInclusion #WorkplaceCulture #TalentDevelopment #EmployeeEngagement #Leadership #HiringInnovation #HR

Today is #InternationalHRDay   And whether you call our profession HR, or People, or Talent, or some other iteration -   Your impact to the organization is that you are creating business value through the lens of its people -   You are shaping business strategy and business operations through the experience of your employees.   And so -   You matter - to the individuals whose advancing careers have been furthered by your job architectures, your career ladders and your development programs.   You matter - to candidates who felt heard and valued for their strengths and were able to thank you for that new job offer.   You matter - to the person with a complication who felt heard because you answered their questions and treated them like a person instead of a resource.   You matter - to those who felt like they at one time didn't belong but now do because of your push to include them and value them as people.   You matter - to the people who have felt rewarded by your compensation plans and benefits programs and engagement strategies.   You matter - to those who gained a new skill because of your training programs or support for tuition.   You matter - to the person who was able to take time to care for their ailing relative or newborn child or attend to a personal need because you championed time off and benefits that they were able to lean into.   You matter - to the leaders who have learned to coach their teams to be better performers and have learned to make decisions from a people first lens.   You matter - to organizations who are now more sustainable and future-focused because you have driven culture strategy, values statements, engagement plans, succession plans, workforce development.   HR - YOU are seen, and whether you always feel it or not, you are appreciated.   Give yourself a round of applause.   YOU MATTER. ❤️   #HRTogether

It really says a lot about a company when their employees are engaged enough to: 📝 1. Complete a survey. 😂 (Seriously. How many times have you sent a survey to the circular file?) Nearly half of our employee-owners actually responded! AND 👍2. Provide honest feedback about their company and the results are overwhelmingly POSITIVE. 🎉 (Our overall Workplace Experience Score beat our industry benchmark by 6% and was up 2% from the previous year!) 🥳 What's our secret sauce? Employee-ownership! 💥Employee-ownership is the foundation of our culture and the driving force behind our success.

Diving into "HR from the Heart" by Libby Sartain and Martha I. Finney with some of my professional friends. Came across this segment and I thought to share with my dear HR colleagues: How does your role add value to your company’s business? How does your role support and nurture the careers of the people who work for your company? What can you do to create a workplace community that allows business to be done, and in which the individuals who work at your company can invest their talents, skills, and passion daily and, in turn, feel inspired and engaged by the opportunities your company offers?" Certainly, something to ponder on.. Here's to a year filled with inspired contributions and meaningful engagements.

Attracting and retaining great talent is no easy feat these days. While salary and benefits still matter, they’re no longer the only things candidates care about when looking for a job. Company culture—the values, beliefs, and ways of working that make up the heart of an organisation—has become a major factor in what attracts and keeps employees. In our latest blog, we take a look at why company culture is so important and how businesses can use it to stand out when trying to attract talent. Read more here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eVaGzV25

Employees stay when they feel: 1. Appreciated: Regularly say “thank you” and offer competitive salaries. 2. Safe: Foster a supportive and secure work environment. 3. Valued: Recognize their contributions and achievements. 4. Trusted: Empower them with responsibility and trust. 5. Included: Involve them in decision-making and key discussions. 6. Heard: Actively listen to their ideas and feedback. 7. Supported: Provide necessary resources and training. 8. Recognized: Celebrate their successes and milestones. 9. Challenged: Offer opportunities for growth and new responsibilities. 10. Fair: Ensure equity in promotions, raises, and opportunities. Creating a culture where employees feel these things will naturally lead to higher loyalty. And it's not just about keeping employees; it's about building a thriving workplace where people want to grow.
