During this year’s Association for Talent Development (ATD) International Conference and Expo , I had the opportunity to attend a pre-conference workshop on improving human performance. One of the big takeaways from the workshop was the difference between goals, objectives, and outcomes. I know how easy it is to use these terms interchangeably. And at first glance, there might not be anything wrong with using the words as synonyms.

As our workforce evolves, so must the way we support it. With more employees choosing to work beyond age 65, HR leaders are increasingly being called upon to guide aging employees through one of the most complex transitions in their professional lives - from employer sponsored plans to Group Medicare.

Part One of my interview with Tony Vigorito focused on the social dynamics of organizational culture. One theme that emerged (and one that might ideally prevent a toxic work culture from forming) is the concept of community in the workplace. Vigorito discussed the increasingly common strategy to build a corporate culture patterned after community, as in a family, and he highlighted the inherent risk of employees perceiving that communal culture as insincere: “People are not stupid.

Quite often, the majority of a company’s business practices fall into place out of necessity organically – not necessarily by design.
