Do not grow weary in doing good.

@windscribecom Yessss!

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@Nisha123 There's a good case and need for both, but a generalist is more likely to be adaptable to ongoing change because their expertise is less deeply engrained than a specialist. This is a great book if you're interested in this topic:

@HR_Hour Managers are often caught in the middle, the influence they have on their employees is both a product of what they bring (whether good or bad) and the culture they are a part of (and also influence). It's cliche, but that influence starts at the top. #HRHour

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@HR_Hour I believe the reason we differentiate between managers and leaders is because the signal to two sets of skills that are important in order to effectively further any cause. I don't believe managers can be effective without leadership skills and vice versa. #HRHour

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@HR_Hour The difference between a manager and leader is whether they use their power to control or empower others. #HRHour

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@SharonGChiara @HR_Hour Me too, Sharon!

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@SharonGChiara @HR_Hour That's true! Ideally, the company's culture and voice already provides the context for those types of questions being asked with good intent, but if not, it's probably better to just leave them out to avoid unnecessary stress and noise. #HRHour

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@JiarDean @HR_Hour Love thing angle! The negatively framed questions can be stressful for candidates, but guiding the candidate towards the insights you're looking to learn can be so helpful and turn it into a really insightful conversation.

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@HR_Hour Aside from being a waste of company time, companies should default to trust and avoid routinely reviewing employee social media accounts. If there's something of concern, it's bound to be reported by someone in which case it can be investigated and addressed. #HRHour

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@HR_Hour A2: In general, checking social media for more info about job candidates doesn't add much value. Unless it's requested from all candidates for a role-relevant purpose, it's likely to add more bias to the process. #HRHour

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@HR_Hour Q1: I don't pay attention to photos when candidates add them to their CV. They don't serve any purpose in the decision-making process and can introduce bias into the hiring process. #HRHour

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

So much of who we are and what we accomplish comes down to the habits we reinforce daily.

Are your habits bringing you closer to who you want to be and the goals you want to accomplish? If not, what's one habit can you remove or add to take a step in the right direction?

[Thrive Global @thrive]

Even the tiniest habits can spark a positive impact in our lives — and inspire those around us to do the same.

@Nisha123 I love the design of this report! It's so cool to get the backstory on it. These designs would make really nice mobile/desktop wallpapers 💡

Looking at career progression as a diverse portfolio, rather than just a singular path is a great reframe as an individual and organization. It opens the opportunity to consider how skills can developed and applied in a variety of contexts. @HarvardBiz

@HR_Hour As an HR profession we can help people with anxiety by:
1. Creating safe spaces for people to share how they feel.
2. Foster psychological safety in the workplace.
3. Providing external resources when there's a need that goes beyond what can be provided internally.

[Andrew Gobran @andrewgobran]

@SharonGChiara @HR_Hour So true! Exhaustion definitely seems to make it easier to fall into spiral into anxious cycles. #HRHour
