Their Success is Our Success: The Importance of Implementation Strategies

Join us as we participate in BrightTalk's HR Tech Summit! We will be tackling all aspects of positive candidate experiences and how those experiences shape company culture. Does a potential employee’s candidate experience shape company culture? Does it improve team retention? Does your recruitment process directly reflect your company’s mission statement and pillars of values? Join us as the Wisetail team examines how the recruitment process directly reflects company mission statements and pillars of values, which all correlate to positive candidate experiences.

Tech & Hiring: Promoting Culture in Positive Candidate Experiences

Our slogan is “turning companies into communities,” and there’s no better way to show you how to use our LMS and LXP solutions to turn your company into a community than to show you how we do it here at Wisetail. 

We sat down with Emily Wood, Wisetail’s Internal Learning Management Specialist, as she walked us through how she keeps employees engaged and promotes company culture in a remote world using our own LXP, Apex.

How Wisetail Uses Wisetail

We all know that it is unlawful—and bad business—to consider an applicant’s or employee’s gender, race, color, religion, etc. in making a hiring or promotion decision. But sometimes we do so implicitly—that is, without conscious awareness. This may raise legal issues and it most certainly raises business/HR issues. This program focuses on types of implicit bias that may infect hiring and promotional processes. Tests to uncover implicit bias also are explored, as well as the sometimes unconsidered risks of those tests. The program includes a discussion of training options to help bring unconscious bias to conscious awareness without creating discoverable data that can be used against the organization. Because promotions are often tied to evaluations, particular attention will be paid to implicit bias in appraisals. Finally, the webinar concludes with systemic safeguards to mitigate the potential for unconscious bias to rear its ugly head from screening to decision making.

Our objectives will be to recognize the sources that inform our implicit bias and learn how to mitigate against them. We will move beyond just awareness of the existence of bias and obtain techniques and processes to minimize their impact on decision-making. Additionally, we will uncover how micro-aggressions have a deleterious effect on our workplace and the morale of our employees and enhance our tools to combat such attitudes. Lastly, we will discover the business case for diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging and how implicit bias massively prevents DEIB from taking hold in a meaningful way.

Implicit Bias: Awareness is Not Enough – Let’s Take Action!

One of the greatest parts of the Wisetail Well-being at Work webinar series has been meeting incredible human beings. As we roll into Episode 10, we have another one for you, Bitsy Esparza. This powerhouse owns the Black Widow MMA studio, based in Austin, Texas, where she is also Head Coach. As they say on their Black Widow Facebook page, “Our tribe is a vibe” and it is a vibe you want to be a part of. For the first time, we will focus our webinar fully to the physical well-being space. Join us as we start off with Bisty's story about why she is where she is and then move onto reaping those benefits that you already know come with physical activity.  In case you have some pre-conceived notions about Muay Thai – here’s what this hour is NOT going to be: ·      Too hard ·      Too aggressive ·      Too boring ·      A cocktail (that’s Mai Tai and an entirely different vibe)  And here are some of the benefits you can enjoy by participating: ·      A blend of aerobic and anaerobic exercises (you get strength and endurance) ·      Stress relief (endorphins!) ·      Boosts of self-confidence, self-discipline and self-respect (it’s all about you) ·      Self-defence moves (yep, working out just got smarter)

Well-being Ep. 10 - Physical Well-being: The Magic of Muay Thai

We sat down with Samantha Stroupe, Director of Training for Port City Java, and Nick Kyle, Training Manager for Bagel Brands, to discuss best practices in Learning & Development. They also hosted a “show and tell,” and talked about some of the exciting L&D programs they run.

Coffee + Community | November 2021

42% of U.S. women and 35% of U.S. men said they felt burnt out in 2021, according to a recent McKinsey & Co. report. Burnout impacts all levels of an organization, so effectively tackling it requires an holistic and employee-centric approach.

Please join us as we speak with Hannah Austin, CEO and Founder at SheShatters and SHEBURNS Podcast, to learn: 
• Tips on how to protect yourself against burnout, as an individual 
• Organizational wellness strategies 
• Planning for what's next in the future of work

Well-being Ep. 9 - Emotional Well-being: Beating Burnout

The traditional approach to learning, with structured courses and assessments is time-consuming, expensive, and lacks engagement. Employees have limited time available to fit in role coaching. Various learning opportunities like micro-learning, peer-to-peer learning, and training in the flow of work allows for a more holistic approach to achieve organizational goals.

During the era of the great resignation and an employee-centric job market, companies that have built a learning-centric culture are thriving and retaining top talent. Learning is the path to a more robust culture, a greater brand, and vital to building an engaging company community — and engagement is a key component to retention. 

In this webinar, we will sit down with Shannon Chamness, Director of Training & Employee Development, to discuss how a learning culture and people strategies can create better business outcomes in a hyper-competitive job market. 

Shannon is a multi-faceted Training and Human Resources leader with a track record of implementing successful learning programs and communication strategies that drive employee engagement, support retention, and promote a culture of learning and growth. She has held positions with big names such as Sports Authority, Crocs, The Kitchen Restaurant Group, and Caribou Coffee and Einstein Bros. Bagels.

Building a Learning-Centric Culture for Talent Retention

Do you know what employees reported as their biggest concern, according to a recent study by MetLife? Finances. The study found that concern around financial well-being was higher than concern in any other area of well-being (be it physical, mental, or social, all of which were reported at 44%). Everyone wants to feel confident that they can meet their basic needs not just today, but tomorrow as well. That’s why a key aspect of financial well-being is planning for the future. At Wisetail, this got us thinking about how we could help. Investments are a great way to plan for the future, so we reached out to Ida Khajadourian, a Wealth Professional’s Top 50 Advisor (2021) and an expert in investing. Please join us as we speak to Ida about:
- savings and investing strategies
- how to set achievable goals and objectives
- how to navigate risk

Join us for our webinar, “5 Easy Steps to Enhancing Your Communication Skills in the Workplace”. In this webinar we’ll take a look at what some have called the “art” of communication. As humans we are naturally social and interacting with each is literally good for our well-being. But with different personalities, cultures and beliefs, sometimes those interactions can be a little unnatural. 

In this webinar we will discuss:
- shifting from judgment towards assessment
- shifting from failure to feedback
- keeping a mindset of kindness and helpfulness
- effective listening
- the importance of specificity

We will end the webinar with a practical exercise that give us the opportunity to open ourselves up to be helpful and kind.
