  • Better than SHRM materials

    I discovered Good Morning, HR when looking for free ways to get my SHRM recertification. By now I’ve listed to about 60 episodes, and I can’t emphasize enough just how educational and engaging Coffey’s podcast is; even though I often disagree with the guests, they get me thinking. Of course the supreme irony is that this podcast is about 236,4353% more impactful than anything I ever got from SHRM’s actual materials, which are expensive and generally vacuous or absolutely useless.

Q: What are you seeing with your clients as far as their use of AI? And what kind of concerns do you have about how we're rolling this out?

HR News: The Great Flattening and the AI Future of Middle Management with Blair Doran
Q: So what's your take on this trend? What do you think is really causing it?
Blair suggests AI-driven costsCut strategies can backfire by eroding culture and increasing the need for higher-level involvement, while AI's speed may tempt organizations to trim middle management without considering long-term organizational health.
Is Your Workplace Toxic? Here’s How to Fix It. with Teri Chilcoat
Q: What makes a workplace toxic beyond a single toxic manager?
Toxicity emerges from the interaction of a toxic manager, followers who enable or tolerate bad behavior, and a culture that doesn't hold people accountable, so all three elements must be addressed.
Rethinking Onboarding to Increase Engagement and Reduce Turnover with Anthony Sork
Q: How long is the critical window to influence attachment, and what happens after 120 days?
The critical window is 120 days; after that, the bond becomes more fixed, making it harder to change, which is why timely, targeted actions during the period are crucial.
Rethinking Onboarding to Increase Engagement and Reduce Turnover with Anthony Sork
Q: What is the day-one skill set a frontline leader needs to effectively onboard a new employee?
Leaders must be able to connect with individuals, understand their unique circumstances, and tailor their approach so onboarding is person-centric rather than a rigid checklist.
