Join us each week as experts help us explore issues shaping world of work! #TChat Radio show is back live Wednesday, October 30, 2013, 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT). Immediately after, our community will continue the conversation on #TChat Twitter from 7-8 pm ET.   Last week we talked about fun and games in team-building and employee engagement activities, and this week we’re going to have fun searching and applying for jobs on our smart phones. Really, we are.   A recent Recruiting Trends survey finds more than 40% of recruiters have received an application using a mobile or tablet device. Also, LinkedIn and Prudential recently told Bersin by Deloitte that more than 50% of candidates find jobs through their mobile devices.   These recruiting times they are a-changin’ by rockin’ the mobile.   Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we discuss the subject with our good friends this wk: Jessica Miller-Merrell, SPHR, Founder and Chief Blogger of Blogging4Jobs, and Rayanne Thorn, VP of Product Marketing and Strategy for Technomedia, a global talent management solutions provider. This will be another important #TChat show about how mobile continues to change recruiting and job search!

Join us each week as experts help us explore issues shaping the world of work! #TChat Radio show is back live on Wednesday, October 23, 2013, at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT). Immediately after, our entire community will continue the conversation on #TChat Twitter from 7-8 pm ET.  Recently at this year's HR Technology Conference & Exposition, we had an amazing panel discussion about engagement - more specifically - employee energy, drive and focus, which has become the holy grail of HR and business leaders. This is true through every aspect of the talent lifecycle. By why? Most internal initiatives designed to improve the status quo haven’t moved the needle much, if at all.   Now throw in "fun and games" into the engagement equation. Does creating fun team-building challenges and continuous recognition activities improve overall well-being, productivity and retention? Does it help create culture where there was none before?   Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we look to our new friends from the Great White North for answers: Mario Coculuzzi, Eastern Region Director for Microsoft Canada, and Dan Benoni, Co-Founder & Product Director of Officevibe, a social employee engagement platform.

Join us each week as experts help us explore issues shaping the world of work! #TChat Radio show is back live on Wednesday, October 16, 2013, at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT). Immediately after, our entire community will continue the conversation on #TChat Twitter from 7-8 pm ET.   Last week, the TalentCulture community discussed age discrimination in the workplace. This week, we look at age in the workplace from another perspective -- specifically through the lens of Generation X.   Why Gen X? Many say that Boomers and Millennials capture most of the attention -- leaving little on the table for those in the middle. But does evidence really support that perception? Is Gen X suffering in silence somehow? If so, what are the consequences for business, as Boomers retire from the workforce, and organizations require new leaders, experts and innovators?   This week, we're giving Gen X the attention it deserves.   Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we welcome expert guest, Mark Babbitt, CEO of YouTern and COO of SwitchandShift.   This is a topic that affects us all -- regardless of our age or profession. So be sure to tune in and join the conversation!

#TChat Radio is all new and live Wednesday, October 2, 2013, at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT), with the #TChat Twitter chat right after from 7-8 pm ET.   Last week we talked about the rub of transparency and privacy in the workplace between employer and employee, and this week we're talking about engaging the dark side of workplace effectiveness.   Yes, the dark side. Contemporary organizations focus on trying to maintain upbeat hyper-positive work ecologies. Anger has to be managed; depression requires medication; shame becomes a disciplinary tool; guilt is the subtext of the employee manual; grief is allotted three days; family crises are never lunchroom conversations.    What if the key to maximum effectiveness was the celebration of these dark emotions and moods? What if we recognized that each of the darker, unacceptable emotions were treasure troves of insight and results? What if organizational adaptability depended on employing the full person not just the razor thin, Prozac enhanced person?   What if indeed. Let's discuss.   Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we welcome our special guests: John Sumser, the founder and editor-in-chief of the HRExaminer Online Magazine and the principal of Two Color Hat; and William Tincup, the CEO of HR consultancy Tincup & Co. and a leading thinker on social media application for HR and an expert on adoption of HR technology.   This will be another important #TChat show about engaging the world of work's dark side, so join us!
