15Five Imagine a friend told you they really went the extra mile for their partner. They cooked dinner, picked up a bouquet of flowers, and spent all day cleaning their home until it sparkled.  But when their husband or wife came home, they didn’t even seem to notice — let alone say thank you! You’d probably be worried about your friend, and tell them they deserve to feel valued and appreciated.  So why should it be any different when we’re talking about paid, professional labor? Our work environments, in person or virtual, are just networks of interconnected relationships.  Employee recognition is about nurturing those relationships, and showing people their contributions are meaningful, valued, and important.  In this post, we share an employee recognition definition, and discuss why employee recognition is important. We also cover benefits of employee recognition, and offer some tips on how to realize them.  What is employee recognition?  Employee recognition is any act of intentionally acknowledging, praising, or thanking an employee for their work.  If you think that sounds incredibly broad, you’re right. There are so many different ways to recognize employees and show gratitude for their brilliance, creativity, and dedication. Employee recognition includes actions like:  Your manager saying ‘thanks’ on Slack, Formal recognition programs to recognize employees’ years of service Recognizing team members during meetings Staff holiday partiesAnnual bonuses for top performersEmployees may be recognized in public or privately, with words or actions, by their managers or by their peers.  Businesses might recognize employees’ output, or the key results and goals they’ve achieved through their work. But they might also recognize inputs — that is, employees’ behaviors and actions, like exceptional customer service or a ten-year employment milestone.  What matters is that recognition feels sincere, personal, and meaningful.  How does employee recognition boost performance?  When it’s done right, employee...

15Five Nugget is a kids furniture company with a mission of making furniture for growing imaginations. Their team is made up of more than 100 people in 40 different roles, and two locations. From product designers to production coordinators, each team member contributes to a larger-than-life goal that’s about as playful and fun as it gets: bringing imagination and wonder into daily life, for kids, parents, and even ourselves. Nugget was named  America’s No. 1 Fastest-Growing Manufacturing Company by Inc 500 in 2020 and 2021. As Nugget began to reach this critical moment in their growth, leaders wanted to keep the momentum going by investing in manager development, which led them to 15Five.  We spoke to Caroline DeConto, Director of Talent and Culture at Nugget, about the decision to choose 15Five. What was the primary reason for choosing 15Five?  At Nugget, we put a lot of time and thought into our decision-making process when determining what software tools, training, or resources we invest in! We did a lot of research and explored several other options before deciding on 15Five, but in the end, it was a fairly easy decision for us. There were a lot of reasons that we decided to go with 15Five, but the one that stands out the most is that our team felt super aligned with 15Five’s Best Self Philosophy and science-based, data-driven approach to employee development and performance. We are really passionate about creating an environment at Nugget where our team members can grow and thrive — both personally and professionally! I’m personally not a big fan of the term “work-life balance”, because it implies that the two can be separated, which couldn’t be more untrue (if you’re not convinced – go binge Severance on Apple TV+). 15Five’s approach to helping managers facilitate ongoing, meaningful...

Everyone's Blog Posts - RecruitingBlogs Think about two companies that differ vastly in terms of their work culture. Perhaps, you have an affinity towards one of them and want to emulate their ways of working. What makes this favored company more desirable? The answer, as delineated in this article by Forbes, is myriads of factors that can range from transparency to diversity. As a human resources professional, you might have an itch to unearth these factors so that you too can create a great work culture for your team. That’s where HR models come in.  Simply put, an HR model is an abstract representation of how an HR department works. Because it would be an arduous task to think about HR functions from scratch while starting a new company or even revamping an existing one, HR models are used to map out the workings of human resource management departments.  This list of top 10 HRM models is made for HR professionals of all kinds, and includes both rudimentary HR models formulated by the ilk of university professors and contemporary models put together by industry leaders. Consider adding it to your arsenal of HRM resources. 1. The Harvard Framework of HRM   Developed in 1984, the Harvard Frameworkof HRM is a holistic HR operating model that focuses on overcoming problems associated with historical people management. It’s based on the belief that when HR leaders formulate an HR strategy that enables the growth and well-being of their employees, only then can personnel problems be solved  and outputs increased. This HRM model directs HR teams to develop HRM policies by factoring in stakeholder interests and situational factors which leads to better HR outcomes and long-term consequences. Why is it useful today: Although this is an archaic model, present-day HR practices find their roots in it. Read...

Everyone's Blog Posts - RecruitingBlogs Human resources is one of those rare professions that draws from multiple disciplines, which is why so many employers insist on a bachelor’s in HR. To reach the top of the profession, employers look for a master’s in human resources. In a survey of more than 1,000 HR practitioners of all levels, 81% held an undergraduate degree; 42% had a postgraduate degree, with a master’s degree the most common (38%). Among those in the most senior HR job – Chief Human Resources Officer – 56% have at least a master’s degree; 14% have a law degree. In the analysis of CHRO trends, The Talent Strategy Group found advanced degrees becoming more common among the top HR professionals. Is a Master’s in Human Resources a Competitive Advantage? A master’s degree is a competitive advantage, and that shouldn’t be a surprise.  As talent management and employee relations have become more complex and employment law now affecting so much of labor relations, the need for more highly skilled HR professions has grown. On-the-job training and development can only do so much to improve HR competencies. The kind of training found in the coursework of graduate degree programs can’t be matched purely through work experience. Not long ago, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) surveyed employers about their requirements for an entry-level HR position. Most wanted a four-year degree. But 16% preferred a Master of Science in Human Resources. About the same percentage would accept a master’s degree in business with an HR concentration. For anyone considering a career in the human resources field and wondering if a master’s degree in HR would help, the statistics and studies tell us the answer is yes.  Also, consider that the median pay for an HR manager is $121,000 a year, according to the US Bureau of...
