From Red Flags to Retention: A Proactive Guide to Employee Engagement

By Lin Grensing-Pophal Disengagement doesn’t always announce itself. More often, it hides in plain sight—behind polite smiles, quiet compliance, or a sudden dip in collaboration. For HR leaders and business executives, the ability to recognize these early signals can mean the difference between retaining top talent and watching them quietly disengage, then leave. “As a recruiter, I often hear employers complain that their people seem happy until—suddenly—they aren’t,” says Sarah Williams, founder and principal at Recruit Healthcare. “But this kind of turnaround is rarely the case. You don’t need a crystal ball to see the signs of disengagement. You just need…

Selling Isn’t Easy, So Why Do We Keep Hitting The Easy Button?

BY DAVE BROCK We all know that selling is hard. It’s not just that buyers are overwhelmed, it’s not just the disruption/change everyone faces, it’s not the unpredictability we and our customers face. Just doing it right takes effort. Focus, discipline, mastery, relentless execution. Knowing this, why do we keep looking for the shortcuts? Why do we look for the hacks, so we don’t have to put in the effort? Why do we look for AI and other tools to do this work for us? Why do we chase speed, volume, velocity over skill? Why do we prize templates, scripts, playbooks…

Productivity at the core: How COOs deliver strategy

By Daniel Swan, Darryl Piasecki, and Tony Gambell For the COO’s productivity mandate, the time to act is always. Six best practices can help. Every chief operating officer (COO) knows this simple truth: Delivering the company’s strategy isn’t just part of the job—it is the job. While there are many paths to achieving that goal, none can succeed for long without increased productivity, the foundation for financial performance and economic growth. Since the 2008 global financial crisis, global productivity growth has largely declined around the world. Even before the crisis, advanced economies’ productivity growth receded from 2.2 percent annually between 1997 and 2002 to 1.6 percent between 2002…

There has been a fundamental shift in employee demands and expectations, and HR teams must adapt. For example, flexible work arrangements and benefits are having a significant impact on how employees blend work and…

I tested 5 AI cold email generators, here’s what I found

Written by: Rachael Nicholson Before starting my career in marketing, I was a business development admin for a relatively large local college. Part of my role was to generate sign-ups for apprenticeships and short courses from local businesses across different sectors. I did this by cold calling (oh, the humanity!), good ol’-fashioned mailouts, face-to-face visits, and email outreach. Download Now: The State of AI in Sales Like 23% of sales pros, I found cold emailing the best way to reach out to prospects. Seriously, it was my preferred lead-gen activity by a country mile. Not only was it less invasive and nerve-wracking for…

Federal Report Shows Remote Work Trumps RTO 

By Dr. Gleb Tsipursky In 2025, a growing number of major employers are mandating full-time returns to the office. Amazon, JPMorgan Chase, Dell, and Goldman Sachs have all implemented five-day-a-week office mandates. Similarly, the federal government has followed suit; by early 2024, over 400,000 federal employees were required to be in the office at least two to three days per week, with some agencies enforcing full-time attendance.  Despite this trend, a comprehensive May 2025 report from the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office (GAO), titled “Telework: Private Sector Stakeholder and Expert Views,” presents compelling evidence that these return-to-office (RTO) mandates may be misguided. The GAO’s findings…

We’re all techies now: Digital skill building for the future

Business leaders have come to a stark revelation: The gap between their companies’ tech workers and their nontech colleagues must shrink. The emergence of digital technologies, especially the rapid rise of AI over the past two years, comes with immense promise to unleash growth and productivity. But companies will not see those benefits if their employees are not up to speed. Achieving the full benefits of digital and AI technologies at scale is critical, as the gap between tech leaders and laggards is widening. McKinsey research shows that companies with leading digital and AI capabilities outperform lagging competitors by two to six times in…
