RIO DE JANEIRO Entering the global HRIS fray In August 2015 I wrote a post predicting that Cornerstone would have no choice but enter the global HRIS space with a core HR (or HR Admin) offering which I called Cornerstone HR.

Motivating employees can be a tricky subject. In the past, many companies have used “blanket management,” which treats all employees the same way. But today’s low employee engagement rates are proving the one-size-fits-all motivational tactics are just not working. That’s because blanket motivation makes assumptions about why employees are demotivated—and usually that assumption is that employees are lazy.

Business owners can’t just sit back and wait for new leaders to arrive, fully developed.

Leaving talent development to chance isn’t a good option for any organization, but it’s critically important for business owners who are thinking of retiring or who have an aging workforce.

My message is to not rest on academic laurels and to not assume that academic achievement alone will enable anyone to get the position they want. I encourage people to separate themselves from “the graduate herd” ; to use education as the foundation on which to get a job and build a successful career.
