Some of you may not know this, but I've been writing this blog for over 10 years now, which of course, means that you end up covering a lot of different topics and ideas around leadership. But what it also means is that after a point, you get the urge to shake things up and try something new. It's with this in mind that I'm pleased to share this latest episode of my leadership podcast, “Leadership Biz Cafe” where I inaugurate this brand new feature, Leadership Espresso Shot.

When does the “ performance management ” of a new hire begin? Most leaders will tell you it takes place during those first days or weeks of a new hire’s arrival, when manager and employee sit down and establish goals. Progressive managers may add that the performance management process is an ongoing activity, with frequent check-ins and periodic overall reviews as the employee moves forward in their career trajectory.

2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up. Thought diversity - the fuel for new ideas, fresh perspectives, and disruptive innovation - is more than a buzzword. It's a survival strategy. And if you’re not building it into your workplace culture right now , you’re heading for trouble.

Great things in business are never done by one person. They’re done by a team of people.– Steve Jobs. Do you really want to build a team that not only helps your organization grow but also keeps an attitude to overcome any obstacles? Every organization wants its team to work collaboratively and persistently towards its goals and vision. Not many succeed in building a team and often employees fail to give their best irrespective of their talents.

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. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

There is a harsh truth that employers and head HR of a company doesn’t like to acknowledge. A simple survey shows that employees hardly care about the employee benefits the company offers. Be it life insurance, medical benefits or disability benefits. On top of that, all these benefits are double-edged swords. You won’t actually use them unless you had to.
