Join Michael and Robin as we chat with Mark D'Agostino about fractional HR services and employee experience.

Mark D’Agostino founded ConnectedHR in 2014 and currently serves as its President. Under his leadership, ConnectedHR has become one of the fastest-growing Human Resources consulting companies in NE Ohio.

In 2022, the company launched ConnectedTALENT and ConnectedENTERPRISE – two new business verticals to focus on recruiting support and services. ConnectedHR also opened their newest office in Austin, TX.

Michael and Robin speak with Jesse Meschuk, global career and HR expert, and Senior Advisor with Exequity, on how companies can navigate the pay transparency movement.  Jesse share tips on responding to the new legislation and thoughts on where we are going in days to come.

California recently passed a new bill that requires companies to disclose salary ranges in job postings as of January 1, 2023. This follows similar laws that have been passed in Colorado, Washington, and New York City. The California Bill also adds the requirement to provide salary ranges to current employees upon request and for employers with more than 100 employees, to provide a pay equity report annually showing average wages by job category comparing gender and ethnicity, which is a first for any state but is in line with many countries (most in the EU) which have a pay equity disclosure requirement. The first-of-its-kind annual pay equity reporting poses a series of questions and decisions for employers across the country, as many have a significant presence in California.

Take yourself over to Google (and google Leadership Skills) and you’ll be served up a smorgasbord of content. Leaders, we are told, must be adept at relationship building, decision-making, conflict-management, etc. etc. etc. Necessary and needed? Absolutely.

 

But our guest on today’s show however strongly believes that necessary items in a leader’s toolkit are two things we don’t often talk about:

· the ability to craft and write job posts

· the ability to craft and write a resume

 

Join us as we have a chat with long-time friend of the show Kat Kibben from Three Ears Media.
