Comment on: Blog Post 'Sourcing Classes from Hogwarts!': When people get together in networking events or meetings, you find the holes/gaps in your knowledge but you are able to fill them with help from the people you meet there. Regular meetings will help you to consolidate and practice your newly found knowledge/spellwork, whether you be a slightly clumsy but determined Neville Longbottom or a dreamy, wide-eyed Luna Lovegood!

Topic: Best Skills Inventory Worksheet: heir on skills inventory. In the program I'm working on, HR professionals will use similar methodology to uncover latent skills within their current workforce. Once uncovered, the employer can provide opportunities to employees to work cross functionally, effectively increasing productivity, engagement, and retention. This is even more important during a recession (remember, like Hermione Grainger said in Harry Potter, "fear of the name only increases fear of the thing itself"- IT IS IMPORTANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE REALITY OF OUR CURRENT ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT- sorry... I digress), when employers are forced to do more with less. You can see the one that I thought was the best (of what I found), and I'd love feedback or links to other resources you know of...

Topic: Strategies for doing more (increased workload) with less (fewer personnel): Anyhow, in this article, I'm proposing that hr managers leverage their existing workforces to cover the gaps created by any staffing reductions, whether caused by layoffs or attrition and freezes. Is it plausible or viable to ask hr professionals to do one or both of the following: 1. Identify the work load that was completed by the now vacant position, list the specific skill sets and time associated with that workload, and then open those duties the entire company? Essentially, this task would open create variety and diversity for current staff that may work in other departments, but have the skill and the hour or two a week available to help out. 2. Identify auxiliary or latent skills in candidates, and recruit based on two levels of criteria- primary job functions and auxiliary job functions. Primary job function relating to the actual job, lets say it's an accountant- a/p, a/r, general ledger, gaap experience, etc. And Auxiliary functions, which could be any of the functions that were previously handled by a now vacant position. Does this process make sense?…; Added by Jason C. Blais at 5:49pm on December 8, 2008
