 <title>Is the Human Resources Department the Union of the 21st Century?</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/paul-glover/surviving-workquakec/human-resources-department-union-21st-century</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Has the Human Resources Department Become the Union of the 21st Century? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Every Labor Day I reminisce about my 24 years as a labor attorney and union official of an 8,000 member national union. It was a great job and I enjoyed it immensely. However, after an election defeat in 1992, I went over to the “dark side” and founded The Glover Group on the premise Employees and Employers had to work together to thrive in the WorkQuake ©of the Knowledge Economy.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Competence of the Human Resource Profession</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/jim-bolt/executive-development-past-present-and-future/competence-human-resource-profession</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I just read about the results of an interesting new study, “&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.softscape.com/whitepapers/SGTN.htm&quot;&gt;State of the Global Talent Nation&lt;/a&gt;”, conducted by Softscape. 94% of the 250 human resource professionals surveyed say they “don’t feel their personnel are adequately prepared to meet future company goals”. And that is 30 percent worse than three years ago. What’s even more disturbing? More than half of them say the big reason this is so is they are not confident that their business effectively manages human resource processes.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Gladwell on Talent Selection</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/ruth-sherman/lip-service/gladwell-talent-selection</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I just got back from the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.astd.org&quot;&gt;American Society for Training &amp;amp; Development’s&lt;/a&gt; International Conference and Exhibition in San Diego where I was a speaker. This was a great conference – one of the best I’ve ever been to and I’ve been to a lot of them both as an attendee and as a speaker – 8,000 professional development pros from all over the world. I learned a tremendous amount and met some wonderful new and interesting people and sold and signed a lot of my books.&lt;/p&gt;
