Are you hesitant to put Millennials in managerial roles because of their youth and lack of experience? This hesitancy is certainly understandable. As an experienced professional manager, you’re well aware that years in the industry provide insights that no newcomer can automatically acquire. However, it turns out that your company can still benefit from the unique skills younger staff members can bring to leadership roles.

PARIS My second city's tribute to my hometown To paraphrase Oscar Wilde, for a global city to be hit by a terror attack once a year can be considered a misfortune; to be hit twice smacks of gross negligence. Add to that that my neighborhood is the only one with the dubious honor of having been targeted twice makes me wonder if time hasn't come for me to move permanently to my second home, Rio de Janeiro.

They do need to create the environment for well-being to thrive, then let employees embrace it. That being said, there are a few specific things organizations should consider when it comes to supporting employee well-being.

You’ve come to a decision and you’re sure you’ve made the right choice. That employee who always delivers her results on time, above expectations, with a fresh perspective – you’re going to make her team manager because you know she will be a “leader.” A month goes by and she’s struggling. Projects are stagnating, there’s confusion among her direct reports and her usually upbeat attitude has now dissolved into a state of constant frustration.

One thing workaholics tend to share: The belief that their extra hours are necessary, productive and harming no one. Nothing could be further from the truth. Since Henry Ford first studied what constituted the most productive work-week, studies have shown that anything more than 40 hours, worked consistently, isn’t productive at all. Still not sold?

I recently read a remark that individuals who work at fast food restaurants or deliver newspapers do not have careers. The author of the remark said they have jobs. It made me wonder exactly what the difference is between a job and a career. So I looked up the words in the dictionary. Job : a paid position of regular employment. Career : an occupation undertaken for a significant period of a person’s life and with opportunities for progress.

One of the most common terms around recruiting these days is candidate experience. If you’re late to the game, it’s basically a look at how candidates are treated as they enter your recruiting funnel all the way to getting an offer, if they move that far. It’s comparable to the customer experience: how they are treated, how they feel about the organization, etc.

Recruiters and hiring managers generally spend just a few seconds on an initial scan of a resume. The vetting process is very similar to what most of us do when we visit a website looking for a product or service. We don’t read the entire website; we scan it quickly and if we don’t find what we need within the first few seconds, we usually move on to the next site.
