HRMA of Central MA

A mentor doesn’t have to be a CEO. Or a former valedictorian. Or even someone in your field. A real mentor is someone willing to: 🧑🏽🏫 Give you their time 🧑🏽🏫 Introduce new skills and ideas 🧑🏽🏫 Encourage positive choices & high self-esteem 🧑🏽🏫 Help you learn from their past mistakes   So here’s my call to recent graduates, young professionals, or anyone making a career change: Don’t choose a mentor based solely on their resume. Choose a mentor willing to establish a relationship with you … and guide you toward a fulfilling career path. What qualities do you value most in a mentor? #SHRM #HR #Mentorship #Mentors

I wanted to share this with my network. This is a great group...and they are growing.

In today's remote work environment, employees are finding it increasingly difficult to disconnect during their PTO. A staggering statistic reveals that 68% of workers admitted to working during vacations, and an eye-opening 45% say they feel guilty for taking time off. This constant connectivity can lead to burnout, stress, and even higher turnover rates. HR leaders, it's time to prioritize true work/life balance. Encourage employees to fully unplug and create a culture that values mental well-being. By fostering an environment that respects personal time, we can help our teams recharge and return more motivated and productive. What strategies have you found effective in preventing PTO burnout?

It's here! I’m thrilled to announce the release of my first book, "Becoming a Human Resources Professional"! After years of writing (and re-writing), receiving the first shipment of books feels unreal. This book is a heartfelt account of one woman's journey in the HR field, filled with valuable lessons and insights gathered over the years. It's designed to be a guide and inspiration for those starting their careers in human resources or looking to grow in the field. I want to extend my deepest gratitude to everyone who has supported me along the way. This wouldn’t have been possible without lots of love and encouragement.
