Time management to improve your productivity at studying
Time management is an ancient art, and not everyone has such a skill, as it can be gained in 
practice and only in practice. By the way, the student years is the best period to learn how to organize your time. After all, the organization of students’ time has its own peculiarities. Now that you have entered a university, college or institute, no one will certainly force you to do your homework or learn something after lessons. No one will control this process, and everything will have to be done by yourself. In addition to studying, there are tons of important things that will have to be done as well.
Actually, the question of how to write a diploma in 2 hours, take a walk with friends, meet a girl, have a beer, cook a pizza, and then meet another girl again, lays in this great science. As we can see, time management for students is a vital skill. Below are the tips on how to organize it. Interesting? Read on! Continue reading
Why students need to start working while studying in college
Students can gain from working while studying a lot of various benefits. However, most students feel that having these jobs can distract them from their studies. The truth is, it indeed can get overwhelming. Whether one has a part-time or a full-time student job or online jobs where you offer college essay help, it is possible to do both work and school or college. It will take extra effort to hold down the job and have excellent grades, but it is possible, and many students are doing it. Before you choose to work and take up that job to build your career, you need to evaluate yourself. You must figure out whether you can handle both responsibilities.
It is not only about making money, although, for most students it is, but also about making sure that you build your career and make your life better. Ask yourself, why do we work? It is also easier to balance instead of having to bust your back during your summer when looking for jobs that pay for college. Here are a couple of reasons why you ought to consider working and studying at the same time. Continue reading

Talent Mobility: How to Get Line Managers On Board
In the last few years, it seems like I’ve become the expert on internal talent mobility (the process of moving people inside the organization via promotions, transfers, etc.). I’ve published multiple pieces on the topic, written several white papers (one linked below if you want to check it out), and spoken about it to various audiences as well. Goodness, I even developed some brand new research for a report I just finished with ATD on upskilling and reskilling your workforce (more on that in the coming weeks). I love talking about it and think there’s a ton of value in the approach.
With that in mind, someone recently reached out to ask a nuanced question: how do you get managers on board, since talent mobility is inherently disruptive to their environment?
Talent mobility is obviously a disruption for managers that “lose” an employee that moves internally. This means the manager has to backfill the role just as if the person left the company. However, the good news is that person is still there and still accessible, which means they can offer coaching or support for the new person stepping into the role they left behind.
From the manager’s perspective, this doesn’t create any additional work, though. Research shows people will leave the company if they don’t have advancement opportunities, so the manager will lose the employee anyway. This just gives them a chance to move up internally, keeping their expertise and value within the walls of the company. That’s a win-win.
If managers want to lessen the impact, they should be open with their teams about jobs within the company and also be open to hearing the career aspirations from their staff. By keeping the lines of communication open, managers are less likely to be surprised by a sudden change by someone leaving without notice. When managers try to keep or control their people and their career progression, they end up causing them to leave the company instead of looking for other internal opportunities. Bad move.
If this interests you, I worked with the team at Salary.com to create a guide for HR leaders on how to build a talent mobility culture. A key piece of that is a one-page handout for managers on how to take practical baby steps toward better mobility-friendly practices. It’s here and totally free: check out the report.
We’re Only Human 52: The Top 3 HR Tech Implementation Mistakes
Okay, you’ve selected your HR tech solution. You’ve signed the paperwork. Now it’s time for implementation–are you ready?
Technology implementations, regardless of whether you’re using Oracle, SAP, Workday, or someone else, are challenging. That’s because the average HR leader only gets a chance to do this maybe once or twice in their career. It’s easy to miss the mark, and a bad experience can have career-impacting consequences. That said, a great implementation can make you look like a star to your team and your leaders.
In today’s episode, Ben interviews Caleb Fullhart about the key mistakes HR leaders make when implementing HCM technology, including everything from rushing the testing process to failing to fit the technology to their unique business rules. It’s a fun conversation and Caleb brings a ton of expertise to the table.
