Average may be acceptable for the office coffee that gets you through the day. It should never be the standard for talent strategy.

In today’s talent landscape, where skills gaps are widening and hiring challenges continue to intensify, organizations cannot afford to rely on assumptions or settle for good enough.

The most effective HR leaders use market insight to make sharper decisions across recruiting and total rewards — turning talent strategy into a true competitive advantage.

Did You Know? The SHRM Civility Index empowers HR Leaders to take action.

More than one in three workers say their leaders use condescending language toward them.

That’s not a communication gap. It’s a leadership gap — and you have the power to close it.

Every day, 104 million acts of incivility happen at work, costing organizations more than $2.6 billion in lost productivity and absenteeism.

Civility isn't a soft skill. It's a leadership skill. Respectful communication, active listening, and genuine inclusion aren't nice-to-haves. For today's workforce they're the standard.

Meet Dan Hozik, a member of SHRM’s Ask an HR Advisor team — and proof that major life milestones can feel less stressful with the right support.

When Dan and his wife welcomed their new baby, open leave gave him the space to be fully present, with no rigid timelines and no pressure to rush back. And when new expenses started stacking up before he was even FMLA-eligible, access to the Origin app helped him navigate the financial side of a brand-new chapter.

As Dan’s family grew, SHRM showed up in ways that were both personal and practical.

As we approach the last few days of National Civility Month, consider this. Workplace incivility reached an all-time high this summer, in society and at work.

For HR professionals, incivility at work is more than a culture concern. When employees feel dismissed, disrespected, or unwelcome, the cost shows up in the work in the form of turnover and lost productivity — and HR is positioned to change that.

You are closest to this challenge. You set the policies, coach the managers, and shape the standards that determine how workers treat each other every day.

Finding common ground does not mean avoiding disagreement. It means creating space for people to communicate across differences with respect. Healthy debate is a sign of a strong culture, not a threat to it.

What are you doing to counter rising workplace incivility?

The rules around inclusion work have changed. Leaders need clarity before they make their next move.

Kenji Yoshino and David Glasgow are opening BLUEPRINT for I&D with "The New Legal Era: What's Permissible — and How to Lead Through It." Two of the most authoritative voices at the intersection of law, inclusion, and workplace strategy, they'll deliver the clarity this moment demands. Expect a direct look at the implications of Ames v. Ohio, the shifting federal posture, and what legally sound, effective compliance and inclusion work looks like right now.

You'll leave with a sharper strategy, stronger footing, and the confidence to lead inclusion work that is legally compliant, workplace unifying, and built to last.

Join us in Nashville on November 16 for this timely conversation.
