With the decline of third-party cookies and the rise of privacy regulations like GDPR and iOS updates, understanding what truly drives conversions is more challenging than ever. So, how can marketers prove ROI when many traditional tracking tools no longer apply?

Workplace culture isn't an HR project, it's a leadership priority. One of the biggest challenges companies face is when CEOs don't see culture as their responsibility. But without top-down commitment, even the best HR efforts fall flat. Real change starts at the top. What doesn't work? Band-aid perks like free lunches or ping-pong tables. As Nia Pommerenke, my guest from “ Better HR Business Podcast puts it: “No one will stick around for the coffee if the culture is bad.” What does work? Clarity, consistent action, and embedding culture into every part of the organization, from hiring to performance reviews to how managers lead every day. I recently spoke with Nia Pommerenke, Founder and Culture Transformation Consultant from of SeaBright Culture Solutions, about the real challenges organizations face when trying to build strong, engaging cultures, and why leadership commitment is key to meaningful change. Nia has dedicated over twenty-five years to the human resources field, with a particular passion for shaping how people experience work through culture, engagement, and leadership. In a wide-ranging discussion, Nia and I talked about: ✅ Why CEO leadership is essential for setting culture and leading by example. ✅ How quick fixes often fail to address deeper cultural issues. ✅ What truly drives engagement—purpose, psychological safety, growth, and trust. ✅ Why HR can't do it alone—culture change requires shared ownership. ✅ How adaptability demands investment in upskilling, clarity, and resilience. ✅ Tips for starting smart in HR consulting: focus on visibility, marketing, and clear value ✅ And much more.

In this episode, the boys dive into the great European vacation boycott of the U.S.—turns out, Trump's tariff tantrums and border shenanigans have Europeans swapping the Grand Canyon for grandma's couch in Lisbon. They cackle over the diplomatic dumpster fire sparked by recent political stunts, then pivot to Spain's Job&Talent, the staffing hotshot that's raking in cash like it's a piñata party. The platform's plotting a global takeover with AI so smart it could probably match you with your dream job and your soulmate. The crew geeks out over how Job&Talent's pampering workers with benefits while turbocharging operations with tech wizardry, making old-school staffing agencies look like they're using carrier pigeons.

Employment lawsuits in the U.S. remain a problem. A recent survey found that 37% of small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) had faced an employee lawsuit in the past year. While large corporations have legal teams at the ready, small businesses often depend on a single, dedicated HR professional juggling everything. That's why Adam Daines, Founder and CEO of ADDA, didn't just observe the AI revolution in HR - he and his team created MyHRAlly: a secure, closed AI platform built specifically to empower HR teams in small and mid-sized businesses. AI isn't here to replace people. It's here to relieve HR teams from the flood of administrative tasks, so they can focus on what truly matters: fostering trust, driving innovation, and enabling growth within their organizations. In a wide-ranging discussion, Adam and I talked about: ✅ The challenge of pricing HR consulting, especially with unpredictable employee relations. ✅ How employees today are more aware of their rights, thanks to online resources and legal advertising. ✅ The complexity of delivering HR services across multiple states with different employment laws. ✅ MyHRAlly, the AI-driven HR platform Adam and his team developed. ✅ Why AI in HR should support - not replace - the human element. ✅The role of strategic partnerships in scaling MyHRAlly. ✅ And much more.

Upwage co-founder and CEO Diana Tsai, along with Head of AI Evonne Johnson and co-founder & COO Greg Call, PHD have released a new book titled “AI For Good: How People Leaders Can Use AI For Good”.

The trio outline a vision for the future of AI in the workplace and provides guidance to business leaders on how to prepare. It will walk you through the Three Waves—from quick AI wins you can implement this year, to building an AI “Talent Manager,” and ultimately creating a workplace safety net for your people.

Today's workforce has grown up with digital education - they expect modern, relevant training to help them succeed, not as a perk, but as a given. Data shows that companies with strong learning programs see higher employee satisfaction, better retention, and improved customer outcomes. However, for companies with 50 to 500 employees, especially those growing fast or expanding product lines, building a full-scale L&D department isn't always feasible. The challenge of providing effective training is real - and ignoring it is no longer an option. I talked with Luis Garcia, President and Co-Founder of PETE, about how personalized, scalable training solutions - covering everything from onboarding to compliance and technical upskilling - are not just helpful, but essential for long-term success. PETE Learning is an Orlando-based HR tech startup helping businesses streamline and optimize their learning initiatives, through its AI-led training platform. In a wide-ranging discussion, Luis and I talked about: ✅ The limitations of traditional training methods — and how AI is changing the game. ✅ How PETE's AI algorithms deliver dynamic, scalable learning experiences. ✅ Why effective onboarding and continuous development are key to employee retention. ✅ Growth strategies through digital marketing and sales. ✅ The role of strategic acquisitions in expanding PETE's offerings and strengthening its platform. ✅ How PETE leverages local networks and digital channels to scale its reach. ✅ And much more!

Rippling's latest lawsuit reads less like a legal filing and more like the plot of a corporate espionage thriller, complete with secret crypto payments, an alleged mole, and a fake Slack channel trap. This week, the HR tech startup publicly named the employee at the center of its case against its rival Deel, claiming the company paid him thousands to spy from the inside. Deel, however, is not staying quiet. The company is denying the claims, calling it a dramatic distraction from Rippling's own legal troubles. Today, on TechCrunch's Equity podcast, hosts Max Zeff and Anthony Ha are catching us up on the week's headlines, including a breakdown of how this saga between two HR tech giants escalated from business rivalry to accusations of racketeering, and why, according to Max, smashing the phone you use for corporate espionage with an ax at your mother-in-law's house is “the oldest trick in the book.” Listen to the full episode to hear about: The startup that's gamifying the tax filing process, and the copyright questions that continue to rise Circle's IPO and what the move could signal for others in the crypto space. The latest in the AI race — from OpenAI's record-breaking raise and GPU meltdowns to Anthropic's  AI chatbot plan for colleges and Google's Gemini leadership shakeup.

Finding your niche can be the key to unlocking new opportunities - whether it's launching a side hustle, growing a business, or balancing passion with a full-time career. I had an inspiring conversation with Cecilia Clark, founder of Aphrodite HR, about how she carved out a unique space in HR while maintaining work-life balance. Her company specializes in supporting independent fertility practices, helping them navigate industry challenges and build sustainable teams. One of the standout aspects of Aphrodite HR is its specialized approach to the unique demands of fertility practices. Unlike other medical fields, fertility services operate on irregular schedules, dictated by the unpredictable nature of patient cycles. This creates distinct challenges in ensuring work-life balance for staff - something Cecilia and her team are dedicated to solving. In a wide-ranging discussion, Cecilia and I talked about: ✅ How and why she started an HR side business in such a specialized market. ✅ Strategies to prevent burnout and stay productive while managing a demanding career and business. ✅ Forming meaningful connections within the industry to unlock new opportunities and foster long-term partnerships. ✅ Using technology and automation tools to streamline daily tasks, improve efficiency, and scale operations effectively. ✅ Adapting services to meet client needs by understanding key challenges and delivering tailored solutions. ✅ How she markets and grows her business. ✅ And much more.

In our recent LinkedIn Live session my esteemed colleague, Neil Morelli, founder of Workplace Labs, and I present a philosophical but practical approach to the adoption of HR Tech tools.Check out the full video of the presentation attached to this post and our accompanying slides (found at the bottom of the post).Here is a quick overview of the ideas that form the foundation of the presentation.“The highest-level goal of the talent acquisition (TA) function is to ensure that an organization has the right people, in the right roles, at the right time, to drive business success.”-Chat GPT 4o & your hosts' combined 50 years of experienceTalent leaders are feeling the pressure to executeModern hiring problems such as resource constraints, candidate scarcity and overload, the move to skills based hiring, and avoiding bias have talent leaders feeling the pressure to find fast solutions!Relieving these pressures often create a temptation to put tools before strategy. AI is a great example of this.The stakes are high, and AI offers a compelling solution- or does it? AI is complex and making decisions about it requires a strong foundation of knowledge and careful planning.In this presentation we discuss 4 common mistakes in the adoption of HR tech, with a focus on AI tools (are there any other types these days?).We discuss how a tools first mentality is often the root cause of these four common mistakes and offer guidance on how to avoid them. 1. Missing AI's ‘creeping normality': As technology becomes more entrenched in your processes and vendors add new functionalities that are accessible, adoption often occurs with little oversight or consideration. When it comes to solving problems related to talent supply or overload, AI recruitment platforms are increasingly embedding “talent matching” functionalities that create risk without any substantial rewards. 2. Chasing Skills Without Definition or Direction: We can all agree that skills based hiring has merit. But it requires alignment on what a skill means to your organization and a holistic view of where they matter and why. Merely removing resumes from the evaluation process or adopting tools, AI or otherwise, that claim to support skills based hiring without a holistic strategy is a dead end street.3. Failing to evaluate your firm's culture and climate for adopting AI based tools: There is a maturity required for the successful adoption of AI based tools. Understanding your firm's readiness for AI based tools, and ensuring that you are ready to go all in is essential. Education on, and knowledge of, AI across the entire organization is a big part of successful adoption. 4. Letting vendors dictate strategy and adoption: Most vendors do offer products that can have an impact, and their messages make it tempting to jump right in. Before biting on a shiny new object, adoption of any AI based tool should be pre-empted by a house made strategy. Vendors must be held to a standard evaluated by domain experts using a framework built on the principles of ethical and effective use of AI.At the end of the presentation we provide a case study that probably feels pretty relatable to any talent acquisition professional. Here we tell a story of how mistakes are made and provide insights to help create the awareness needed to avoid them.No one is perfect - but AI alone will not create perfection. Keeping things in perspective and a thoughtful and methodical process that is not driven by fear is essential to the successful adoption of AI technologies.Download our slides here This is a public episode.
