Today is International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia (IDAHOT)! Let's unite to end discrimination and celebrate diversity in all its forms. This day reminds us to raise awareness about the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals worldwide and to strive for a more inclusive and accepting society. Let’s use our voices to support marginalized communities, promote love and acceptance, and challenge discrimination wherever it exists. Remember, it’s not just about tolerance; it’s about embracing and celebrating the unique identities and experiences of every individual. Join the conversation, educate yourself and others, and take action to create a more just and equitable world for all. Together, we can make a difference. #IDAHOT2024 #EndLGBTQdiscrimination #DiversityMatters

#HRCommunity - We're only 17 days away from the 2024 SHRM Annual Conference and Expo in Chicago! If you're still waffling, here are 5 reasons to attend: 1) Professional Development - YOU are in the driver's seat of your career. You don't have to wait for your employer to support your goals. Take charge. 4 days, 12 professional tracks, over 375 sessions, and over 400 speakers = 28 PDCs. 2) Continuous Learning - The line up of speakers this year is really incredible. A lot of new (and familiar) faces, with a broad set of topics that apply to all HR pros - regardless of how new or seasoned you are, and regardless of your level/title. There is something for everyone! 3) Networking with your peers - 25,000 of your #HRPeers will be in attendance. What an amazing opportunity to mingle, get to know those who are in similar roles and similar industries. Iron sharpens iron! 4) Chicago - This is one of my favorite cities. There is so much to do and see, and the conference venue (McCormick Place) is very nicely laid out and easy to navigate. Take advantage of your evening time to do some sightseeing, try out the famous Chicago-style pizza (so freakin' yummy) and/or all of the other Chicago-style culinary experiences. (Tip: DO NOT put ketchup on a Chicago Dog. Just don't.) 5) Acquaintances turned life-long friends - One of my most favorite aspects of the annual conference is getting to see people that sometimes I don't get to see but once a year. Virtual connections are great. But those in-person connections are even better. Some of my closest friends have come from the relationships built right here. Hope to see you there!

Happy Freedom Day! Today, we reflect on and celebrate African American freedom and culture. However, this day is also a reminder that there is still much progress to be made in addressing the injustices of racism. In the words of Angela Davis: "You have to act as if it were possible to radically transform the world. And you have to do it all the time." #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #Juneteenth2024

It often starts innocuously: first, you have a payroll system. Then, you add an HRIS, followed by an applicant tracking system, a benefits enrollment program, a wellbeing platform, and a compensation management tool. Before you know it, you've fallen victim to HR software sprawl. Welcome to #HRThursday! To minimize this issue, our SHRM leaders offer a few pieces of advice. First and foremost, start with governance. Before rolling out any new HR software, look across the organization and ask: do we already have an existing system that can meet this need? At a previous employer, our HRIS vendor tried to sell us project management software, but upon further inquiry, I discovered that IT was already using a similar tool. It made perfect sense to connect the project managers with IT and leverage their existing platform, reducing the number of systems to log into and ensuring easy access. (other takeaway - make IT your best friends) A recent Gartner study of 500 HR leaders found that 83% regretted a recent HR technology-buying decision. Before making a purchase, ask killer questions, request multiple demos, interview current customers, post inquiries in online forums, and tap into your local SHRM network - like HRP - to gather insights from nearby users. Moreover, take the time to map out your 3-5 year vision for your HR software ecosystem. Resist the temptation to be an early adopter solely for a discount; I've learned the hard way that buying into new software before the bugs are worked out can lead to deployment challenges. Technology is evolving rapidly, and the plug-and-play model is becoming increasingly prevalent. Early in my career, it was easier to simply turn on all the modules within a single HR system. However, today, there are multiple vendors that can integrate seamlessly. Determine your "hub" – likely your payroll system (remember the first rule of HR: Don't Mess Up Payroll), and then map out which systems can plug into it. When signing contracts with new vendors, ensure they can seamlessly integrate with your hub. As you build out the "spokes" of your technology wheel, identify opportunities for systems to share information and consider developing APIs to facilitate data exchange and reduce manual uploads. Finally, if you have a dedicated purchasing team, leverage their expertise! Vendors are becoming increasingly savvy, so partner with your procurement professionals to ensure they scrutinize the fine print in contracts. They can also assist in identifying potential overlaps with other systems already in use across the organization. (reminder - make IT your best friends!) By following these small planning steps, you can help reduce technology debt and ensure a streamlined, integrated HR software ecosystem. https://lnkd.in/e6xRT9rc
