What’s old is new again

When I first started content marketing, I was a news-jacking pro. After all, I came from the news industry, and I knew how to take a piece of news, interview a couple experts, and layer over a point-of-view relevant to the brand I was working at. In fact, this is what had Verizon once send me a cease-and-desist. But news-jacking fell out of favor in content marketing years ago, in favor of longer-form content that could drive organic search traffic.
What’s my level again?

I hate to state the obvious but if employees don’t currently know where they stand in the grand scheme of growth, then how could they possibly understand where to go next? It’s like taking a road trip without a map, or well, without GPS now. Something that can be a gamechanger? Having a leveling framework in place. A leveling framework is a structure that defines job roles within a company by outlining certain factors like skills, experience, responsibilities and authority.

SEO has changed. You all know that. And my team has shifted, starting in Q4, from long-form pillar pieces to more snackable assets built for specific audience segments at specific points in their journey. But don’t take my word for it. Bernard Huang detailed this strategy here––and named it!. Two notes on this: That’s it…
Why is growth at work so confusing?

^^live footage of employees trying to figure out growth, promotions, compensation and all the struggles that come with growing a career in corporate America. Have you worked somewhere that you constantly questioned: how am I ever going to advance my career here??? And when you asked questions about growth opportunities you left with more questions rather than answers? I sure have! I’ve also worked places where growth was entirely subjective and depended entirely on how much your manager liked you.

βπ½ How soon is too soon to leave? Context: I’m a new HR professional struggling with the culture and lack of support from my direct managers and upper management. I entered this role with an eager attitude but my manager is an extreme pessimist and I’m having a hard time seeing a path to success. Our HR team is only myself and my manager supporting a company of 600+ employees and we have no plans of hiring more HR staff.
Your employees just aren’t that into you…

Ever seen that movie He’s Just Not That Into You? It was one of the first major ensemble movies and featured some BIG stars and some memorable lines. I saw it in movie theaters. I may or may not have uttered the phrase “you’re not the exception, you’re the rule” a dozen times while giving (really bad) dating advice. You may be wondering why I’m referencing this somewhat terrible rom com from 2009? Well, it’s because I have some news for you… Your employees just aren’t that into you.

βπ½ I’m new to HR and I feel like there’s constant fires to put out with employees being upset about things or submitting complaints. Our HR team feels unappreciated and like we can’t win. Our organization always thinks we’re the bad guys, even though we work so hard and truly care so much about helping the organization. Is this normal? Are they just a difficult client group?

I’ve had the dreaded performing convo more times than I can count. 👎🏽It usually goes like this:Manager: Someone on my team isn’t performing. Me: What feedback have you given them? Manager: None. So should I fire them? Me: No. If you’ve JUST had this conversation or one like it, I have something for you. Today’s edition dives into how to get performance back on track.

βπ½ How do you address the CEO and COO of a company that are reactionary and rude to staff when they are legitimately injured or sick? They get so frustrated about things outside of their control and then take it out on the staff. They create false narratives in their heads about the staff and refuse to accept anything different.
