A Booster Shot from HRBOOST® (July 2019): Celebrating Strengths and a NEW Book Launch!

What a beautiful summer day to greet you!

I often have some of my most interesting conversations when I sit down with prospective clients. The best question I got from a CEO this month was, " What is HR anyway?" I loved it. I think it will inspire the next 6 months of content you see from HRBOOST®.

I am thrilled to see a number of our clients rolling out enterprise wide BestWork™ DATA and Celebrating Strengths.

I was elated to receive good feedback from a new Small Business Bundle Client and this fuels me to put more effort into letting businesses know they deserve Strategic HR, Day ONE - Employee ONE. This note came in recently from Jay Sims at Elegant Event Lighting, "I needed HRBOOST® to jump in to the deep end on Day 1 and they have not disappointed. The attention to detail and calmness has been a huge benefit. HRBOOST® quickly became a tremendous partner for our company!"

On a personal note, it will soon be August and I am excited to share that I launch a new book, No Fear Negotiation for Womenwhich is now available for presale. I am humbled to present with my co-author, John Tinghitella, at the PWN International Conference in Kentucky on August 3rd. Then, I have been called to Mason City, IA to present a Keynote on The Talent Emergency fueled by The Power of Joy and Purpose.

Tune into WBBM and 670AM the Score where you may soon hear my voice. We are letting everyone know HRBOOST is the PEO ALTERNATIVE.

We are doing our best to provide resources and tools to the smallest of businesses. Enjoy the final weeks of summer ahead and should something HR be on your mind, give us a call, we love it!

Graciously,
Nicole

5 Ways to Improve Your Benefits Program—Without Changing It

Written by: Lisa Hughes Daniel, Guest Blogger

It’s a competitive hiring environment, and employee engagement and retention are more important than ever. Losing employees because they’re searching for greener pastures isn’t good for your company’s bottom line or its overall health. But when workers don’t feel a strong connection to an employer, jobs become interchangeable. So, what can your company do to combat this trend and hang onto its people?

*** IN THE MEDIA ***

We are pleased to announce Insight Success has named Nicole Martin one of the “Most Promising CEO’s of 2019.”

From Insight’s article: Through valuable experiences, a leader can learn and implement new innovations for enriching the organization. Such experience is very well absorbed by the Founder and CEO of HRBOOST®, Nicole Martin. With over 20 years of experience in the arena of human resource from small start-ups to big league organizations, she stepped in to initiate her own company envisioning to offer a dedicated resource and best advisements that many internal HR departments lack.

In this Webinar, we discuss the following questions:

  • What does the current mix of generations in the workplace today mean for you?
  • Office is a Verb, so how do we come together to get work done?
  • What is the real opportunity to retain your Boomer, Gen X, and Millennial talent?
  • How does the variety of ways we communicate affect the transfer of knowledge?
  • When it comes to incentivizing and motivating, how does each generation see it?
  • What are the five things every generation has in common?

Attendees asked me to create a simple chart outlining each generation. Download the infographic and tell me what you think!
