Recorded Wednesday March 2, 2016

Hosts: Steve Boese, Trish McFarlane

Guests: Laurie Ruettimann

Listen to the show HERE

This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, Steve and Trish talked with Laurie Ruettimann.  Laurie is a former Human Resources leader turned influential speaker, writer and strategist. She owns a human resources consultancy that offers a wide array of HR services to human resources leaders and executives.  You can follow her blog at http://laurieruettimann.com.

Since Laurie and Trish each went on retreats recently, Steve talked to them about the things that made a retreat valuable and rewarding that are easily replicable for a weekend/day/a few hours away.  We also tied the discussion to ways that leads to a more human approach to work.  Finally, we wrapped up the show by discussing Globoforce's WorkHuman event.  WorkHuman is happening in Orlando from May 9-11 and is a place to learn about how to create a more human workplace.

Guests: Lisa Sterling, Jayson Saba, John Sumser

Listen to the show HERE

This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, Steve and Trish recorded LIVE from the Ceridian Analyst Day in Hollywood, California. Our guests are Lisa Sterling and Jayson Saba from Ceridian and John Sumser from HR Examiner.  They are some of the most interesting, influential, and engaging leaders in the HR Technology industry. 

On the show, we talked about designing HR technologies that incorporate culture and practice into them.  Lisa explained how Ceridian believes it's important to really demonstrate the best practices internally and live them so that when they design software, it flows into the product too.  Jayson and John shared their insights on how the industry is changing and what HR leaders need and want.  We did all of this while enjoying the band at the W Hotel entertaining in the background.  Trish also talks about her brush with her favorite event..... THE OSCARS!  While there were no celebrity spottings during the show, we still had fun and a few drinks.

PODCAST: #HRHappyHour 233 - Knowing Your HR Potential

HR Happy Hour 233 - Knowing Your HR Potential

Recorded Thursday February 4, 2016

Hosts: Steve Boese, Trish McFarlane

This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, Steve Boese and Trish McFarlane recorded a podcast of a rehearsal on the day before a webinar that actually happened last Friday. I know that might be a little confusing, but just think of the show as the audio track for a webinar for the Cleveland SMA called 'Know Your Potential', (slides have been loaded up to Slideshare and are embedded below), that Steve and Trish delivered last week.

The webinar (and this podcast), covered a range of topics, trends, and tips for HR, recruiting, and talent professionals - all aimed towards getting the most out of your potential for excellence in 2016.  So on the show we talk about some of the important trends for 2016, why they matter for HR and Talent pros, and how to leverage these trends in your professional life. Additionally, we shared some advice and tips on maximizing the value from online, social, and professional networks - an always interesting and rapidly changing space. Finally, while the webinar, (and attached sldes), covered some emerging HR and recruiting technologies, we cut the podcast short before this topic, as we will revisit it on its own show soon.

You can listen to the show on the show page HERE, or using the widget player below (email and RSS subscribers will need to click through).

The slides we used for the webinar and podcast can be found on Slideshare here, as well as embedded below.
