Have you ever wondered what it takes to catapult your company into the future of work? That's exactly what we're unpacking with Dan Michelson, a visionary leader who's redefining the role of HR in the modern workplace. In his transformative new book "Holy Shift," Dan unveils the game-changing strategies that propelled his high-growth company to the top echelons of Glassdoor amid the turbulence of COVID-19 and the great resignation. Through the lens of his extensive experience, we dissect the CORE elements crucial to employee engagement – Community, Opportunity, Relationships, and Experiences – and how these play a pivotal role in shaping a company's culture and workforce productivity.

Picture a workplace where every employee feels an indelible sense of belonging and opportunity for growth. I had a profound conversation with Dan about the strategic importance of these elements, not just for HR professionals but for every manager and CEO committed to nurturing a vibrant company culture. We reflected on the transformative power of genuine relationships and the daily experiences that can be the deciding factor between an employee's loyalty or departure. Dan's insights elevate the conversation from theory to practice, offering a practical toolkit that any listener can apply to foster a workplace that thrives on the collective success of its people.

And for a light-hearted finish, Dan and I riff on a musical note, sharing a chuckle over my son's drum set and the whimsical idea of a family band collaboration. This episode is more than a guide; it's an inspiration for HR leaders and managers alike to embrace the evolution of their roles and to become the conductors of change, orchestrating a workplace symphony that's harmonious with the future of work. So tune in and let's harmonize your company's culture with the rhythm of innovation and engagement.

Holy Shift! Moving Your Company Forward to the Future of Work with Dan Michelson

Imagine stepping into a job interview where the vibe isn't about ticking boxes or rattling off achievements, but instead about genuine human connection. This episode of Rebel HR is precisely that breath of fresh air, as we welcome Lori Wallace from Career Ecology to the stage. Lori shares her vision of recruitment as a deeply personal journey, celebrating radical kindness and a Sherpa-like support system for those navigating the precarious paths of career transitions. It's a conversation that will leave you rethinking the way we approach the delicate dance of hiring and getting hired.

Ever walked into an office that boasted a 'family-like atmosphere' and found yourself in a cutthroat corporate Hunger Games instead? We've all seen companies where the gap between their polished values and the daily grind is wider than the Grand Canyon. In this session, I recount a tale of a wolf in sheep's clothing—a company that talked a big game about mindfulness but dropped the ball when it mattered most. Contrast that with the Cleveland Clinic's approach, where servant leadership isn't just a buzzword but the golden thread woven into their culture, and the difference is staggering. It's a deep dive into the essence of organizational integrity and how staying true to one's values can be a magnet for lasting talent.

To close, we focus on revolutionizing the job interview, transforming it from a stage of high stakes to a space of heartfelt service. Lori walks us through mindful interviewing, offering solace to those who've felt the sting of rejection and practical mantras to shift perspectives from ego-driven to heart-led. We wrap up pondering HR's potential to not just fill positions but to fulfill human potential, urging a move away from seeing people as capital and towards recognizing them as the beating heart of every organization. So, if you're ready to see HR in a whole new light, this is one conversation you won't want to miss.

Transforming Human Tactics for the Modern Workforce with Adam Gordon

Unlock the secrets to navigating the complexities of employee relations with Deb Muller, the trailblazing founder and CEO of HR Acuity, who joins us with her wealth of experience in marrying HR expertise and technology. Deb takes us through the maze of 'yellow light' issues, those subtle yet critical early warnings in the workplace that can spiral into crises if ignored. She enlightens us on the instrumental role managers play in identifying and mitigating these issues, and emphasizes the importance of fostering an open culture where employees feel safe to voice concerns. By leaning into these conversations, we learn how to preemptively smooth out the wrinkles before they become tears in the fabric of our organizations.

This episode isn't just about avoiding disaster; it's about redefining the very soul of HR. With Deb's insights, we uncover how trust and support are the cornerstones of a transformed HR identity, one that's aligned with the heartbeat of an organization—its people. We examine the ripple effect of positive HR interactions and how they can catapult an organization's reputation from dreaded necessity to trusted confidant. Deb also reveals how simple yet powerful tools, like ENPS surveys following HR interventions, can provide a pulse check on employee sentiment, turning feedback into a catalyst for growth and improvement.

Finally, we navigate the tightrope of transparency within HR, discussing how this trend is reshaping expectations in the modern workplace. From open discussions about salary to the ethics of confidentiality agreements, we dissect the implications of an open-door policy. HR's role as the moral compass of a company comes to the forefront, especially in the wake of misconduct, and we explore the importance of not just hearing but truly listening to employees. All this and more await in this episode of the Rebel HR Podcast, where Deb and I stir the pot on traditional HR practices and offer a fresh perspective on the challenges and victories of those committed to shaping the future of work.Support the showRebel HR is a podcast for HR professionals and leaders of people who are ready to make some disruption in the world of work.
