It goes without saying that the role of data in the HR function has grown substantially in the last decade, and will continue to do so for decades to come. In an ideal world, an HR professional should be able to access data that are: Fresh (recently updated) Clean (consistent application of definitions) Explorable (able to be filtered and pivoted to the specific use case).

Even if you’re not an Elton John fan, no doubt you’ve heard many of his songs. In fact, I dare you to listen to the song “Bennie and the Jets” and not sing every word to the chorus. An impossible task, indeed. But did you know that Elton John doesn’t write those famous lyrics (and that Daniel isn’t Elton’s brother?). For more than half a century, the legendary singer has relied on poet and lyricist, Bernie Taupin to write his words.

Equality is not Pie. Equal rights for others doesn’t mean fewer rights for you. Imagine going to a beautiful store but you’re not allowed to enter because you have blue hair. You won’t like it, would you? Equality is a necessity that every individual must enjoy. Being treated unfavourably every day owing to who they are, where they’re from, or what they look like is unfair and shouldn’t exist at all.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, ‘threads’ were a programming novelty rarely used and seldom trusted. In that environment, the first PostgreSQL developers decided forking a process for each connection to the database is the safest choice. It would be a shame if your database crashed, after all. Since then, a lot of water has flown under that bridge, but the PostgreSQL community has stuck by their original decision.

But we have seen that managers don’t really have any effective conflict management strategies or in some cases no strategies in the first place. Most managers have a tendency to avoid conflicts.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance.
