If you ask a job candidate about his or her biggest flaw, chances are good they’ll say that they tend to work too hard. This isn’t just a convenient way to elude a difficult question; it’s probably the absolute truth. Furthermore, even though it might seem like this excessive diligence will contribute to your company’s productivity, the truth is that such excess work habits are harmful to employee happiness and to your company culture as well.

Every once in a while, I run across an article that talks about why organizations shouldn’t calculate cost per hire. Personally, I’m a big fan of the cost per hire metric.

Groupthink is what happens when the desire to have harmony and consensus discourages healthy dissent during the decision-making process. In other words, when individuals fear rocking the boat, they don’t voice their disagreement – even if they know they should. The results can be disastrous. Consider the failure to anticipate Pearl Harbor, the escalation of the Vietnam War and the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster.

You could probably pinpoint the top traits of a rotten boss at the drop of a hat, right? Everyone’s had one of those. The arrogant show-off who takes credit for your hard work. The obsessive perfectionist who has to re-do everything you just did, twice. And then the one who’s just plain mean. You can’t change how they manage. But you can make sure you don’t repeat their mistakes when you’re in charge.

Email has been around since 1972. It’s an essential part of communication today. Which is why it’s so frustrating that, after all these years, there’s not some definitive list of email protocols. And I’m not just talking about “typing in all caps means you’re shouting”. I’m referring to when is it okay to send an email. According to a report from McKinsey Global Institute, workers spend on average 28 percent of their time each week reading and answering email.
