Social Media and Generational Differences
Social media will soon play a critical role
in how people communicate on your projects. What is your initial
reaction to this statement? For some of you, it might be:
1. “Social
media already plays a huge role in both my personal and professional
life. I can see this happening on my projects, too.”
2. “I’m not
so sure about this. Social media is fine in my personal life, but I have
seen it tried at work and it hasn't gone well.”
3. “Social media?
What the heck is that?” ?
Crowdsourcing your
strategy may sound crazy. But a few pioneering companies are starting to do
just that, boosting organizational alignment in the process. Should you join
them?
The best way to describe the possibilities of community-based strategy
approaches is to show them in action. Two examples demonstrate the lengths
to which some companies have already gone in broadening their strategy
processes, as well as the degree to which the executives who participated
are convinced of the benefits.
Best Practices for Rapid Content Development
While eLearning content creation used to be a very expensive and complicated endeavor, new rapid development tools are making the process much simpler and less costly. How? Essentially, these new tools provide easy-to-use templates that empower you to create content without programming skills or a high level of technical knowledge.
If you are tasked with developing eLearning content for your organization, you might find knowledge of these tools useful—whether you are starting from scratch or repurposing existing materials. Through the use of the SIMPLE acronym, this paper offers an introduction to using templates for rapid content development. It also includes best practices and tips for working with subject matter experts (SMEs).

Tips for establishing an analytic center of excellence
As the use of analytics in many sectors of the economy increases, business leaders are developing a greater appreciation for the value and power of analyzing data and making better decisions. Likewise, the advances in many types of analytical technologies have encouraged organizations to make more and better fact-based decisions, validate assumptions and identify root causes of business problems.
However, a large percentage of organizations are still struggling with several aspects of using analytics, including how and where to start, how to take the next step and how to change their internal culture so that analytics becomes integral to the decisions that matter most.

Workforce Solutions Review - Don’t miss the next issue of IHRIM’s Workforce Solutions Review focusing on Leading Practices
June/July 2012 - This issue focuses on Leading Practices and features the Mid-Year Buyer’s Guide. “Leading Practice” or “Best Practice”? Or do you simply prefer “Our Practice”? For years experts, pundits, and practitioners have argued the term. Even here at WSR we’ve used the term interchangeably in our discussions with each editor having a preference. For this issue of the Workforce Solutions Review we decided to call it our “Leading Practice” issue, but as you read through the articles you’ll likely see all the terms used depending on the author. Some of our feature article topics include Building Leading Practices into Your HCM Processes and Technologies, How Leading Practices affect HR Compliance, and Barriers and Drivers in the Evolution of Talent Management into a Decision Science. Our columns include an article about how Adaptive Case Management is used at Fujitsu America, Inc., an article that describes why smartphones are essential in helping to curb costs and improve employees knowledge of health benefits and choices, all from the palm of their hands, plus Nick Garbis gives us a rundown on how he was able to implement and improve workforce planning at GE Energy, and he provides some great advice on how you, too, can do this in your organization and succeed.
