Manager training plays a vital role in the performance and profitability of a company. It helps support the company's growth strategy, expand the skill set of its managers, drive employee engagement and retention, and improve overall productivity.

Despite the significant impact manager ...

Managing Human Capital: Global Trends and Challenges - Thomas ...
Globalization takes place through a foundation of human capital. Yet in many ways, the human capital needed for globalization is lacking. Progress is required in important areas such as elevating more women to leadership positions and having talent strategies that incorporate diversity. Taking a longer-term view, early childhood interventions are needed to ensure development of tomorrow's workforce. For companies that are global today, it is not effective to manage workers the same in all countries. Managers need to understand cultural differences and adjust their styles, communications, and rewards to fit within each culture.

I talk a lot of junk about SHRM - and there are plenty of reasons to make jokes (if you care to, revisit some of the reasons by going here , and here , and here ). But this isn't about poking at the SHRM beast with my little dagger. Let's stop and have a quiet moment of reflection. What do you get from SHRM? And you can't answer "it's to be a member of a tribe" - the tribe has 250,000+ members. Really, what do you actually use SHRM for? And if you were to stop your membership, how would you do without? Would you miss your monthly HR Magazine? I've been membershipless for about three years ...

SURVEY RESULTS FOR
THE HR LEADERSHIP COUNCIL
When considering human capital investment levels, it is necessary to determine the specific measures to monitor the HR effectiveness. These measures provide insight into the status and health of the human capital function. They signal when additional investment is needed and they serve as the baseline for measuring the progress and payoff of investing in a specific program or project. The first step to determine the measures needed is to examine those currently in use. Some of the HR effectiveness measures evolved from the beginnings of personnel administration to what is today known as human resources or human capital ...

The anti-incumbent mood supposedly sweeping the country this year will be tested later this month in Florida’s 6th congressional district, where conservative activist and self-described “political outsider” Don Browning is challenging eleven-term U.S. Rep. Cliff Stearns in the August 24 Republican primary. Voters in Clay and Duval counties — well, at least a portion of Duval County — will have a say in this contest, a race described by the feisty challenger as a classic “David vs. Goliath” struggle. “And you know how that turned out,” joked Browning in a recent interview with the Jacksonville Observer.

Good question. I think it exposes some of the inconsistency of this model, it is hard to imagine somebody toting "Finance as a business partner" as the new hot concept.
