Accountability and remote working

  Prefer to listen? Click the play button above 👆  Prefer to read? Read on below 👇 Today, I want to talk about the topic of accountability especially in relation to remote working. How I see accountability is best explained, I find, through my job as an HR consultant travelling in and out of many […]

employ adults not children

Employing Adults, not Children

“I tripped over the box on the stairs, why didn’t you tell me it was in my way”, “I saw the others using gloves, but no one told me I should use them too”, “You’ve no right to make my job redundant, you should protect every job”, “I’m not changing the way I do things.” […]

The danger of a narcissist on the team: Group of grapes looking scared as one is being crushed by a high heel
29 January, 2019  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, HR & Legal, Management

D&I and the danger of a narcissist in the team…

Is the most popular person in your business singlehandedly destroying it? For some years my path has regularly crossed an individual who on the face of it is the driving force behind the team’s success. She brings in energy, vibrancy, and draws people together. She appears caring and empathetic. But what I have increasingly become […]

A positive culture can’t survive if there is no sense of team: Santa Claus waving at his fellow colleges in a warehouse
30 November, 2018  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, Management

From ‘I’ to ‘We’ – A positive culture can’t survive if there is no sense of team

How do you create a culture of engagement, high employee morale, great retention of good staff when for decades all the workplace legislation that has been published in the UK relates to Individual Rights, rather than the Rights of the team or group? How does it work in your family or friendship group? Do you […]

The frustration of dealing with staff who lack the skills to do their job: A child who looks tired
19 February, 2018  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, Management, Opinion, Performance

Bam! The frustration of dealing with staff who lack the skills to do their job!

I recently sat for 9 long hours on a plane. I read a really good book from start to finish, but 9 hours is a long time to be sat on your backside, especially following 3 hours bottom numbing in the departure lounge, and 90 minutes of inactivity on public transport getting to the airport […]

Zero hours contract: A dog that has devil ears, a devilish mouth, and a devil's tail
14 November, 2017  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, HR & Legal, Management, Opinion

The Demonisation of Zero Hours Contracts

Welcome to my blog. In this blog I wanted to talk about zero hours and flexibility. It infuriates me when employment practices are dictated by over emotional and ill thought through media/public hysteria. In recent years, I have been horrified by the demonisation of zero hours contracts. We live in a world where 75% of […]

Harassment in the workplace ... are your staff saying #Metoo: A man and a woman are facing away from each other with their arms folded
19 October, 2017  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, HR & Legal, Management, Opinion

Harassment in the workplace … are your staff saying #Metoo?

#MeToo has been trending since the Harvey Weinstein media fury kicked off. Men and women are coming forwards saying that they too have had to deal with harassment. I empathise. It is endemic. Both the serious stuff and the lesser kind of harassment. The loud assertive voices saying ‘get over it’ or ‘you’re being over […]

Is workplace anger making life miserable: An elderly man who looks angry, with steam coming out of his ears
1 December, 2016  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, HR & Legal, Management

Is workplace anger making life miserable?

A topic that seems to have raised its head on a regular basis over the past few months has been that of anger. Perhaps prompted by us at Jaluch supporting a lot of organisations with redundancies, grievances and disciplinaries at the moment…. a real hotbed of change and unrest perhaps brought on in part by […]

Racism in the workplace: A business man being stood on by a foot
5 September, 2016  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, HR & Legal, Management

Racism in the workplace – act now and stamp it out!

In recent months at Jaluch, we have seen more racism in the workplace than at any other time I can recall in the past 20 years of running an HR business. And whilst some of it is mild (if there is such a thing) what is really worrying is that quite a bit of it […]

Productivity review: A productivity line on the background of a rainbow
19 May, 2016  |  By Helen Jamieson  |  In Blog, Management, Performance

Managing yourself: productivity review

Is it time for a productivity review? We all spend much of each day striving to be effective and productive. But how many of us have a clue about our actual level of productivity? If you could rate your productivity in the past 60 mins what score would you give out of ten? Go on, […]
