Beware the office xmas party !

Beware the office xmas party !

Could you please remove your tongue from my ear ? This is not what you want to hear at your Xmas celebration this year, but there will be many such comments made and actions done that could land your organisation in hot water. Its better to spend the few dollars on a cab and send the wayward employee home for a rest, rather than endure the consequences of this sort of behaviour at your officex mas party and end up in court.

Ever said that about a place you worked at. I know I have over the years. But what is interesting is that I never told management how much I hated working there and even worse, they never asked. Much can be learnt from the opinions of employees AFTER they leave the building, but when done in-house, you rarely, if ever get an accurate responce. This is an area where you really should use a consultant. At Parting Company, we have a range of programs that will gather your information and work with you to improve or understand an employees responces. Dont leave it another year, talk to us today about 2014

Another wake up call for the babyboomers

Posted by Deirdre Albrighton on 28 October 2013
As another great baby boomer, Lou Reed dies, I am reminded again of the fragility of our generation. I am fortunate to be on the cusp of boomer and gen x but as a management issue, the on going challenge for business is to creat adaptive workplaces that can give us the opportunity to work longer into our years, as many of us will now need to, but  be flexible and adaptive to changing health needs. I have a personal and professional  interest in this issue,  so please contact me to dicuss further if you do also.

The only good meeting is a short meeting, right ?

The only good meeting is a short meeting, right ?
Not necessarily. The only good meeting is one with outcomes and an action list to go with it. If these escape the meetings you attend, you can change that by learning how to do it differently than the rest. Go on, step up above the pack. Click here to register now.
