What should HR professionals know about neuroscience? I keep being asked ‘what relevance does neuroscience have for HR?’ These clients have done a little reading, seen the more sensational media on ideas like mirror neurons and the Tarantula study and some of the claims about research into the human brain. There are lots of claims and a vast amount of research being done and the number of articles makes it hard for HR professionals to sift through what is relevant and what is not.

I believe the best way of thinking about neuroscience if you are in HR, is as research which can verify or discredit our assumptions and psychological theories about how people interact, make decisions and work effectively. But look for reliable sources that reference the original peer reviewed research, for example the original article on Tarantula research. The 75 KPIs Every Manager Needs To Know.

When it comes to hiring, this can be problematic. In order to attract and retain the best talent, both culture and values need to play a key part, so how can you incorporate them into the recruitment process?

It’s important to have clear values in place from the start – ideally before you hire your first employee. These aren’t always easy to define, but it’s important to be creative and think long and hard about your principles before you begin the recruitment process. Capital - Funny business: Why humour on the job matters. The antics of the so-called Redneck Sermon Series have a point, said Pastor Perry Noble, whose Southern Baptist church often attracts 20,000 worshipers to its two locations each Sunday.

Nflict in the matrix - the challenges of moving away from hierarchical structures. Kevan Hall is CEO of Global Integration, consultants and trainers in matrix management, virtual teams and global working. He is also the author of "Making the Matrix Work. " Many international organisations are moving away from a hierarchical structure to a matrix organisation, designed to improve work and processes that cut across the traditional vertical silos of function and geography.

Even those without a formal matrix structure are using virtual teams and cross functional working to become more “horizontally” connected. Organisations need to be connected in this way to serve global customers, run supply chains that span the world and operate more integrated business processes and internal functions like HR and IT.
