Competition for employee attention is intense. Chances are a lot of your messages aren’t reaching your employees these days, according to GuideSpark CEO Keith Kitani.

Remember Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz? You might be wishing you were her right now. With a click of your heels, you could return to your pre-COVID19 life. Going back is impossible. No matter how much you hope and want it, you can’t go back. So as business resumes, everyone wonders what the new normal will be and when we’ll get there? That’s the topic of this episode of the G3 Show. Ira Wolfe and co-host Keith Campagna talk about jobs, technology, future of work, and re-opening your business.

Good news! Your business will be able to reopen soon. Bad news.The road back will be anything but usual. There is no post-pandemic recovery playbook. Most of us will be just faking it as we make it. Fortunately, there are great resources available to us and there’s no better source for the kind of advice that matters than Gallup. (Yep, that Gallup, the highly respected global analytics and advisory firm.) We’re grateful that Gallup’s Mike Clarke joined us to help jump start your business reboot.

We are weeks away from the apex of the Covid-19 crisis. Fortunately the pandemic will pass. To the disappointment of many, we won’t go back to the way it was. Many employees will return to work disoriented, stressed, and fearful. A few may be grieving and traumatized. Every company will need to re-board workers and re-glue the culture. There is no playbook for this. Emergency preparedness expert Bo Mitchell and educational/cognitive psychologist Jason Cochran share tips how to get started.

life get back to normal?” Overnight the lines between science fiction and reality blurred. Standing between each of us and the future are both unknowns and opportunities. What must leaders and individuals do to adapt to this new normal? How can you bring clarity toy what’s next? That is topic of this week’s Geeks, Geezers, and Googlization podcast, The New Normal Survival Kit, Shift Your Mindset. We were fortunate enough to have Michael Smith, Founder and CEO of Hiring Stage, as our guest.

There’s nothing like a pandemic to abruptly change the way companies hire workers. With millions of people forced to shelter place and many business on lock-down, the traditional job interview is impractical and nearly impossible. Video interviews have suddenly become the new normal? What are best practices? Should you just use Are Zoom, Skype, and Google Hangouts? To answer these questions, Phil Strazzulla from Select Software Reviews, an HR technology research company, joined the show.

Let’s start with the obvious. It’s understandable why people are frightened and even panicked. Covid-19 is scary. The uncertainty is scary. For many, fear is spiraling out of control. That’s why we’re so fortunate that Joe Burton, CEO of Whil, joined us for this episode. (Whil was founded to fight the global stress epidemic.) As author of Creating Mindful Leaders and mindfulness advocate, Joe’s practical and timely advice is exactly what the doctor ordered: how to power down, up, and forward.

How do you take a crisis like the Covid-19 and shape and protect your company reputation going forward? What do employees expect from employers and what are you doing to meet their needs and expectations? Our guest today, crisis communication expert Bill Coletti, says “Plan now like your company’s reputation depends on it because it does.” What you say and do (or don’t do ) to calm employee fears and ease customer concerns will have long-term implications.

A job candidate should walk away from the recruitment experience feeling good, even if rejected. Unfortunately for many companies, the results are horrifying. Candidate resentment has increased 40% since 2016. Candidates exit the process not just disappointed but resentful. That's not just bad for HR but bad for the brand, the business, and the bottom line. To understand how some companies are responding, we spoke with two leaders from The Talent Board, Kevin Grossman and Gerry Crispin.

The urge to “follow your gut” is one that we develop at a very young age. But as our guest Arupa Tesolin explains, there is a sharp distinction between intuition what many of us describe as our gut instinct, and Arupa has the neuroscience research to back her up. For anyone on a journey of self-improvement or struggling to fit in to our new world of work, Arupa shares tips for improving your surprising power of intuition and its ability to transform your personal performance and innovation.

The business world invests millions in developing better leaders and growing employees. And yet employee disengagement, dissatisfaction, and work-related stress persists. In this Valentine’s Week episode, we literally get to the heart of the struggle: how our heart shapes our character. Heartstyles co-founders & authors of Above The Line Mara and Stephen Klemich reveal 4 universal principles that drive effective and ineffective behaviors, then share how to become better versions of ourselves.

You wouldn’t expect that lessons learned on the battlefield of Gettysburg would have anything to do with cybersecurity. But ensuring confidential information doesn’t fall into enemy hands was as much a concern 160 years ago as it is today. That’s why we reached out to cyber-security specialist and Civil War enthusiast Clinton Eppleman, from Morefield Communications, to explain how employee practices and even the job description can make your company more vulnerable to phishing and cyber attacks.

Disruption. Innovation. Opportunity. Clayton Christensen set a pretty high bar. Unfortunately he passed away last week. Christensen was known as the father of “disruptive innovation” and author of what The Economist calls one of the most important business books of all time, The Innovator’s Dilemma. To better understand the man and the impact he had, we interviewed two people whose lives were massively impacted by “Clay”: Carlos Castelan, The Navio Group and Chris Howard, Callahan & Associates.

Pronouncements that proclaim “people are our most important asset” has become a punchline. It's time to walk the talk.

There’s a long-overdue mindset shift taking place right now. Many companies are living in “talent poverty.” To grow, they must transform how they recruit, hire, and retain workers. Craig Fisher, Head of Recruiting Innovation at Allegis Global Solutions (just as his title suggests), is leading this transformation into he calls “total talent” mindset.” In a fascinating conversation, we talked about how recruiters will work and how companies will acquire the skills they need when they need it.Geeks Geezers Googlization Radio Show is broadcast live at Wednesday's at 1PM ET on W4CY Radio (www.w4cy.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (www.talk4radio.com) on the Talk 4 Media Network (www.talk4media.com).

A typical resume contains 400 to 800 words. The average interview lasts 45 minutes. Unfortunately, the reliability of both is about as good as flipping a coin.

Imagine this. While employers equate recruiting top talent to finding a needle in a haystack, 93% of highly qualified women, who just happen to be moms on a career break, are sitting on the sidelines - willing, ready and able to return to their careers.

12 million U.S. employers spend $5 Trillion on HR technology, $250 Billion of it on recruitment and hiring. So why does the candidate experience still suck and why is employee engagement still floundering at around 35%? Will more and better HR technology fix the candidate experience?

Rhonda Taylor loves hockey. She learned to play as a kid and that passion continued throughout much of her adult life. But she readily admits that her toughest competition wasn’t the other skaters, but societal norms. Girls just don't play hockey! Then she saw the same gender inequality in the workplace.
