Employees working remotely? Keep data secure

June 3, 2018 by NCET Member

Many, if not all of us, are required to work remotely. The ability to complete our work while on the go is essential to not conceding deals to our competitors. The need for sales and professional services resources to urgently access company data from outside the office is more prevalent than before, as is the need to ensure remote access is secure.

NCET Biz Tips: Creating a Framework for Business Success

May 23, 2018 by NCET Member

Business success is often measured by size attributes: revenue, number of employees, geographic coverage, growth rates etc. But these measures don’t reflect the functional development of the business – in other words, just how strong is the business, really? Is it able to grow sustainably? Are there opportunities to execute more profitably? Are there critical dependencies that are risks or limitations for the business? Answering these questions requires a framework for thinking about how a business is actually doing, such as this 6-level model.

Enough with the millennials – it’s Gen Z to the rescue

February 18, 2018 by NCET Member

Jim Annis

Millennials are no longer the newbies. As HR experts, we are “over” overanalyzing this generation. We’re also tired of everyone blaming them for whatever ails us at the moment. It’s time to press the refresh button. Welcome Generation Z! This generation is the largest on the planet, numbering 72 million and counting. Ages 25 and younger, they represent 25.9 percent of the population and by 2020 they will account for one-third.
