Описание:
In an environment where many organizations think of human capital assets as little more than expense items that impact the bottom line, this book will help human resource (HR) professionals initiate a shift toward a new culture in which management views employees as true partners in achieving organizational success.
The Field Guide to Achieving HR Excellence through Six Sigma provides detailed guidance on how to utilize the Six Sigma methodology and the TLS Continuum to achieve the business model that is required to thrive in today's business environment. The book demonstrates a clear path to continuous improvement that is based on the practice of spreading quality throughout the organization so that it becomes everyone's responsibility. This book is the sequel to Achieving HR Excellence through Six Sigma. In this book, Daniel Bloom provides a road map on how to implement the concepts found in the first book. The book begins by explaining how to create an HR Center of Excellence and then provides an understanding of the define-measure-analyze-improve-control (DMAIC) process and its implementation for HR. This road map will help you determine where your organization is failing to meet the voice of the customer. The book presents proven Six Sigma solutions for initiating and sustaining organizational change as well as strategies that allow leadership to make adjustments to processes if your organization falls short of meeting the need of the customer. It includes case studies of organizations that have successfully utilized the Six Sigma methodology to improve workflow and correct HR issues including the actual project documents used to implement the methodology. A word of caution: If the reason you are looking to improve work flow is to find ways to reduce headcount, then this is not the book for you. Instead, if you are looking for a guide that can help you become a strategic partner, administrative expert, employee champion, and change agent, then fasten your seat belts and begin this worthwhile journey.

Описание:
When it comes to mentoring, peer coaching is an undervalued workhorse. It's effective, inexpensive, widely applicable, and relatively easy to implement. Many coaches consider it to be the next wave in professional development. Peer Coaching at Work draws on research and practice to deliver a hands-on guide to this powerful relational learning technique.
The authors—all leaders in the field—present a rigorously tested three-part model for facilitating peer coaching relationships in one-on-one settings and in larger groups. With lively case studies, they define peer coaching as a focused relationship between equals who supportively learn from, actively listen to, and judiciously question each other, which leads to breakthroughs that may otherwise lie dormant in one's career. A fundamental guide for anyone with an interest in mentoring and transformational learning, this book is a must-have for the talent management bookshelf.

Описание:
An extraordinary confluence of powerful forces is transforming both the world of work and the ways we educate current and future employees to contribute productively to the workplace. Automation and digital technologies are profoundly transforming how business is done at every level.
The Future of Work: Optimizing the Talent Pipeline starts with the premise that the exploding scope and pace of technological innovation in the digital age is fast transforming the fundamental nature of work. Due to these developments, and their rapid pace, the skills and preparation that employers need from their talent pool are shifting. The accelerated pace of evolution and disruption in the competitive business landscape demands that workers not only be technically proficient, but also exceptionally agile in their capacity to think and act creatively and quickly learn new skills. Employee capabilities in leadership, teamwork, and communications are also paramount.
In addition to technological disruption, demographic forces are also impacting the workplace, compelling higher education to respond in turn. The increased longevity of human beings means that many careers will span 60 years and more, creating a sustained need for continual "reskilling" so that workers remain productive with relevant skills. Meanwhile, evolving demographic trends are shattering the relative homogeneity that once defined the workforce by opening the pipeline to employment for a more diverse employee population. Given these trends, higher education has a vital role to play in ably preparing learners to meet the immediate requirements of the workplace, as well as the uncertain demands of the future. This work explores how these transformative forces are--or should be--driving innovations in how colleges and universities prepare students for their careers. Focused on the impact of this confluence of forces at the nexus of work and higher education, the book's authors--an illustrious group of leading educators, prominent employers, and other thought leaders--answer several profound questions about how business and higher education can best collaborate in support of the twenty-first century workforce.
This chapter will develop the common thread across the five main sub-headings and how they jointly contribute to the multidimensional and multifunctional views advocated in the book. Thereafter, the chapter will give an overview of all the 14 chapters in the book.
2. Work-Life Integration: Overview and Trends
The chapter will begin by stating the meaning of the concepts: work-life conflict, life-work conflict and work-life integration and will present some research on their negative effects on individual and organizational productivity. It will trace the research journey on WLI bringing out the movement from scarcity model that leads to conflicts, to the positive psychology model which identifies mutual beneficial effects of involvement in multiple roles. It will present work-life integration as a way to ameliorate the negative effects of involvement in multiple roles and highlight sources of the integration. The chapter will also contribute to the debate of any difference and similarity between work-life balance and work-life integration which has never been resolved (Alton, 2018; Dresdale, 2016; Harrington & Ladge, 2009). It will review the research on WLI with the view to identifying the gap which the current book is to fill. It will justify the multidimensional approach to achieving WLI advocated in the book and show that past books and studies have neglected this.
B. Organizational Perspectives
3. Organizational Production Process and Work-Life Integration
Structural and production process issues have not been given much attention in the analysis of WLI in the past (Lambert et al., 2002). Hence, in this chapter, discussions will focus on the concept of productivity process as an integral aspect of work-life integration; what constitutes the elements of productivity at individual and organizational levels. Inter alia, the relationship that subsists between productivity process and work-life integration will be explored as a basis for a creative and integrated process flow both for individuals and organizations as units for building a healthy society. Discussions will also include the role of productivity procedure, elements of inputs and optimal output flow. The components of an ideal and practical productivity procedure and productivity quotient at individual and organizational levels will be explored, as well as identification of value-add component of work-life integration and its relationship with productivity.
Thus, major issues that will be addressed in this chapter include:
q Concept of productivity vis-а-vis work-life integration and the relationship that is inherently subsumed between work-life integration (WLI) and productivity at both the individual and organizational levels. Thus, the contents of this chapter will include the operational definition of WLI, productivity, factors affecting WLI and productivity value stream flow.
q Process flow perspective of productivity, work-life integration and factors impacting on work-life integration.
q What determines an optimal productivity procedure
q What are the critical inputs for an optimal productivity flow within an ideal work-life integration continuum
q Which outputs constitute value-add at individual and organizational levels vis-а-vis an ideal work-life integration.
q Prioritization: importance of prioritization hinged on work-life integration towards eliciting optimal productivity
q Time management and discipline as integral factors for productivity: Time wasters impacting on work-life integration and productivity at individual and organizationa
