Growing up in East Lansing, MI and the Michigan State campus, one of the more polarizing figures was one Mark Grebner.
Thirty years before the advent of sites such as "Rate My Professors," he was self publishing "Rating the Profs," a short paperback that was available for purchase at the MSU Student Book Store to assist students in avoiding the "harder" professors (several were rated as "A Real Bastard!").
He has also ran successfully for County Commissioner for many years under the slogan, "No Worse Than The Rest." Which made me think...
Is this a winning slogan for HR as well?
Our HR strategy?...no worse than the rest
Our time to fill?...no worse than the rest
Our candidate pool? ....no worse than the rest
How do we train and develop our employees? ...no worse than the rest
How do we keep our employees safe? ....no worse than the rest
Our recognition program? ...no worse than the rest
Our compensation system?...no worse than the rest
Where do you rate the employees? ....no worse than the rest
Does it work?
