- Mirror, Mirror On The Wall, Why Do My Employees Come To Work At All?
By: Ann Andrews | - Never before has it been so vital to deal with less than fabulous performance in our employees. Every organisation has to do more with less, every single day, as competition grows and customers are faced with endless choices.
Having even one employee coming to work unmotivated and only marginally productive will have an effect on the bottom line.
But before we as Managers, Owners and/or Team Leaders rush into cracking the whip or looking for replacements for the ... Tags: People, workplace, employee, unmotivated, manager, owner, leader, team, business, growth, human resources
- Do You Need Business Training?
By: Simon Johnnson | - A lot of individuals are looking to start their own business instead of continuing with the monotonous 9 to 5 jobs.

The freedom of having your own thing is more than what one can hope for in any corporate service.

By: Ann Andrews | - I work with teams and have done for the past 20+ years, and over those years, I have developed my two most favourite questions:
Of managers, Would you like to be free of having to deal with fire-fighting/ crisis managing, and employees asking stupid questions for one whole day every week? And I see the look of absolute desire on their faces.
Of employees 'How many of you get up on a cold wet, winter morning; think of work and leap out of bed shouting 'yes? And eve ... Tags: Team, leader, manager, human resources, motivation, career development, workers, staff, mentor

- Fill Up Your Knowledge Gap With Distance Education
By: Acee | - Heaven be praised for distance education. How else would many of us get the learning we need?
Distance education, like much else, began as far back as in the early 18th century US. No surprises there, given the long distances between people and places of learning. In Australia, another land of huge spaces and scattered populations, the University of Queensland took up distance education via mail-delivered correspondence courses in 1911. And Queensland, as we shall see, has kept its ... Tags: rsa training, management traineeship, Human resources management
- Learn Human Resources Management Online
By: Acee | - The one resource no organization can do without is the human. Yet it has probably taken more time for employees to be dignified with some description less demeaning than "labor" and "personnel". The term "human resource" first recognized the employee as something other than a cost head, instead as a resource to be valued as an asset. From then on, companies have become mindful of the need for human resources management in nurturing, rewarding and retaining talent.

- Demographic Analysis And Human Resources Staffing
By: Art Gib | - A key function of human resources management is to be able to analyze the demographics of a company. From a purely statistic keeping perspective there's not much use for analyzing demographics in terms of making profit, unless there are awards or bonuses available for diversity. While this may be true in the education sector, government hand outs to private businesses solely due to diversity may not be a solid hope to rely on. So why analyze demographics?

By: Virginia Konrad | - From an executive coaching perspective, dealing with both negative and positive feedback is truly a significant, complex and personally difficult task to take on - whether it's being received or delivered.

- Paying For Performance And Reward Management
By: Robert II Smith | - Paying for performance is a prominent issue in modern Human Resources Management (HRM). Organizations have long conceived that production and productivity improve when pay is linked to performance and have evolved payment-by-results (PBR) systems and incentive schemes to endorse this belief (Milkovich & Newman 2004). Expectancy theory informs that if people want more pay and believes that working harder will get it for them; they will work harder and perform better (Bassett 1993). But how to mak ...
