As usual, Jeanne C. Meister, an expert on workplace trends, was on the mark 3.5 years ago. Her article published in the Harvard Business Review about using VR to develop soft skills in the workplace is spot on. 🎉 "VR-powered education is poised to help the next generation of workers cultivate the essential soft skills they’ll need to be valuable — and employable — in any organization." If your organization isn't already using - or at least experimenting with - immersive tech for learning purposes, you are already behind. Ping me here to find out how to get started.

⚡The Impact of Technology on HR⚡ With the HR tech market set to reach $30 billion by 2025, growing at an annual rate of 11% from 2019, the evolving impacts of this type of technology have been evident more so than ever before! Take a look at some of the key benefits of adopting tech related products into your HR team: User-friendly analytics: UFA enhance data accessibility and decision making when it comes to assessing what’s working and what’s not. For the first time, HR staff have direct access to insights, right at their fingertips. These analytics come up automatically, usually with the help of AI tools. HR workflow tools: Allow for streamlining HR processes which enables a HR team to spend less time and money on admin and everyday tasks, helping them to adopt a more strategic focus. Freeing up time allows staffers to tackle the biggest problems that they face.

What makes a good interview process in engineering leadership? Ben Watts was on a call earlier this week with a Series B company that listed their interview process from start to end. How many rounds? 12. 12 rounds of interviews! Moving jobs is a big change, for both the potential employee and it's a big hire to get wrong (this was a VP position) for the employer. But there becomes a moment where the diminishing returns that each extra interview gets you in terms of reducing the risk of that hire, becomes FAR outweighed by the number of candidates that will take other offers, or just become disengaged with your company. In this case, he agreed that they could cut it short and move a few others into conversations during onboarding, and they were left with 5 rounds. Around the right level for a very senior leadership hire. What is the biggest takeaway if you're running an interview process? Adding another interview round will always increase your confidence in your decision as the employer, but there comes a point where further rounds are doing far more harm than good.
