Effective Interviewing
Interviewing costs time and money. But if not done well, it will incur even higher costs for not placing the right candidate. Especially small companies often suffer high staff turnover due to lack of a thorough interview process by trained personnel and/or ad-hoc recruitment decisions. Interviewers tend not to be prepared and fail to ask questions which help collecting the right evidence that determines whether the candidate can successfully perform the job.
Unconscious Bias
We all have unconscious bias. However, often we are not aware of it which can lead to misunderstanding and negatively impact our decision making. Raising awareness of mental shortcuts that lead to snap judgments—often based on race and gender—about people’s talents or character, will make recruitment and promotion fairer and improve interactions with customers and among colleagues.
How to give constructive feedback and gain buy-in
Have you ever received feedback about something you have done well and something where you may have changed the way you do things? Most of us find it difficult to give feedback , however we all desire to get recognition or guidance when things do not work so well.
Onboarding with success
The more welcome new employees feel, the more motivated they are. A great experience when starting a new job, will help to settle employees more comfortable into their role. Effective onboarding helps to make better connections with others, encourage short lines of communication and to understand the company culture.

Transparency is key for these statements, which are an essential tool for communication with external stakeholders.
