Wikipedia defines nudging as follows: “Nudge is a concept in behavioural science, political theory and economics which proposes positive reinforcement and indirect suggestions as ways to influence the behaviour and decision making of groups or individuals.

Every good conversation starts with listening. Really?
HR Trend Institute
October 19, 2020
Back in 2014 Remco Mostertman, founder of the Dutch HR Community, wanted to start a series with HR Quotes, and he asked if he could share (on Twitter) some of my videos with a nice quote. I provided some quotes, but Remco didn’t like the quote I provided with a short video about listening, so he suggested another one, he found on the internet: “Every good conversation starts with listening”. He created a picture (unfortunately I cannot find it anymore), where a very big ear was attached to my head, and a balloon with the quote. It was posted on Twitter somewhere in August 2014.

COVID-19 and Gamification

I am a keen user of Duolingo and the simple gamification elements used in this solution could have been an example for the Corona app. From Wikipedia I get some of the game design elements.

Communication models, from Aristotle to White
HR Trend Institute
September 28, 2020
There are many communication models, and they all look alike. There is a sender and there are one or more receivers. The sender can choose a channel, and whatever channel she chooses, the message is distorted. The receivers are active or passive. It they react, maybe even if they don’t react, there is feedback. A channel is chosen for the feedback, and the feedback is distorted, if you like it or not. Miscommunication models would maybe be as better title.

HR Pyramids
HR Trend Institute
September 07, 2020
The Pyramid
After the circle and the arrow, the pyramid is probably the most used shape in HR visuals. We found HR pyramids everywhere. Unfortunately we had to report a lot of pyramid abuse. In many visuals it is not clear why a pyramid is used. A good example of the proper use of a pyramid is Maslows pyramid with the hierarchy of needs. The basic needs at the bottom, more “luxury” needs at the top. The higher in the pyramid, the smaller the size of the people in the group. One big group is missing in Maslow’s pyramid: the group of people whose most basic needs are not met.

A collection of Performance Management Cycles
HR Trend Institute
August 19, 2020
We all loved the performance management cycle!
Performance management is changing. Almost every HR professional has been involved with performance management cycle design. The HR Trend Institute, in collaboration with The Muesum of HR, is preparing an exhibition of performance management cycles.
In this article we present an overview of nearly 50 performance management cycles. The first conclusions: it is a rather boring collection and the similarity between the cycles is big. The variety is caused by the level of detail of the process that is provided.

HR in 2025
HR Trend Institute
July 27, 2020
Last week I was interviewed as part of a research into “HR in 2025”.

It is by no means my intention to summarise the interview, the researchers can do a better job, and I am looking forward to the report that will be published somewhere this fall.

Establishing Workplace Habits
HR.com
April 16, 2020
The Power of Habits - Although I like variety and change, I am also a big fan of well-established habits. Part of my time is spent on daily, weekly or annual habits. Examples: Daily: meditating (with Headspace). A cold shower. No meat. Seven hours sleep. Weekly: 3-4 times running, total at least 30K. Bi-weekly: Ajax home match (during the season). Annually: Certain runs (like the Posbankloop and the Zevenheuvelenloop). A couple of weeks in the sun during the winter. Habits at Work Habits can be powerful, also at work.

The changes in performance management, the transfer to mobile, the use of communities for recruitment and people analytics were on the agenda in many organisations. Some trends moved very slow. The end of PowerPoint seems to be wishful thinking. I have been in many meetings, conferences, round tables and symposia this year, and I must have seen more than 5,000 PowerPoint slides.

Casual collision, dialogue & collective intelligence
YouTube
October 18, 2020
Hoe borg je continuous listening? Wat is casual collision?
Hoe kun je met je medewerkers verbinden en hoe verbind je ze onderling?
Gesprek met Tom Haak van HR Trend Institute over onze gedeelde visie op trends en hoe de innovatieve dialoogoplossing van CircleLytics het probleem oplost wat de enquête (zoals employee engagement survey) niet lukt.
Trends die Tom samenvat obv onze technologie waar #HR en #CEO belang bij hebben:
- continuous listening: luisteren naar meningen, niet naar scores alleen, luisteren naar elkaar, tot iets groters komen
- push forward innovation; door casual collisions van CircleLytics, komen medewerkers met nieuwe meningen in contact
- increase resilience; verbonden mensen, inclusie, diversiteit en veiligheid zorgen voor weerbaarheid van teams.
Zelf voeg ik daar nog 'collective intelligence' aan toe: de groep is onder voorwaarden, intelligenter, creatiever en betrokkener dan de optelsom van de individuen.

HR Trends Today
Hi5 Technologies
March 21, 2019
Tom Haak has always worked in HR. Based in the Netherlands, he worked his way up from a trainee to a senior position at Phillips Electronics, went on to other multinational companies like Aon and KPMG and later took the position of global HR Director for Arcadis, a leading global natural and built asset design & consultancy firm. He founded the HR Trend Institute in 2014.
Tom transformed himself into a trend-watcher and reads, speaks & breathes HR trends. He argues that a lot of the skills/principles necessary for HR can be learnt in tertiary institutions (like how to read statistics, how to use algorithms, etc.), but the HR industry is always in flux. Keeping up with the changing trends in HR is a continued education, beyond your degree or diploma.

Furthermore, we discussed the employee’s journey and dived deep in how can Talent Management adjust and be effective in a distributed work environment.
Lastly, Tom gave us some valuable insight into what challenges companies need to prepare for before tinkering with a flexible work arrangement program".

"Das HR steht vor einer Ara voller grosser Möglichkeiten"
HR Today Blog
February 19, 2019
HR-Trendforscher gibt es viele. Doch Trends zu erkennen oder gar vorauszusagen ist als HR-Mensch gar nicht so einfach. Vor allem das «neutral sein» fällt den Beobachtern oft schwer. Diese Feststellung macht auch Tom Haak. Der Holländer ist Gründer des HR Trend Institute, das jedes Jahr eine der wichtigsten HR-Trendstudien herausgibt.
«Ich denke, Sie sind in gewisser Hinsicht eher ein Trend-Herbeiwünscher als ein Trend-Beobachter.» Diesen Satz musste sich Tom Haak anhören – berechtigterweise, wie er heute findet. Denn einige seiner HR-Trends sind schon eher Wunschdenken, als dass sie auf Fakten und gründlichen Recherchen basieren. Im Interview beschreibt Tom Haak die HR-Trends 2019, wobei künstliche Intelligenz und auch die Persönlichkeit eine grosse Rolle spielen. Das Gespräch mit dem Holländer wurde auf Englisch geführt.

Jobiak
January 15, 2019
How we do business today is rapidly evolving thanks to the advent of tools like AI and other technologies that allow us to deepen relationships with our audiences and do our jobs better and talent acquisition is no exception.
But all of this advancement comes at a time when recruiting and talent acquisition professionals are facing a nearly unprecedented uphill climb in getting and keeping the right candidate in the right position. Historic lows in unemployment rates, talent shortages in our increasingly data-driven world, and rising employee turnover mean that talent acquisition professionals will need to up their game to win in 2019.
Thats why we asked the experts how they see talent acquisition changing this year, and how we will need to adapt to keep up.
