Linkedin Profile Optimisation for Professionals with Donna Serdula #63

Nick Day is joined on The HR L&D Podcast sofa by Donna Serdula, who is an influencer that has been pivotal in pioneering the concept of LinkedIn profile optimisation for business leaders across the globe.

This work led Donna in 2009, to found Vision Board Media and LinkedIn-Makeover.com where she developed the now coveted, “LinkedIn 4-point methodology”.  Donna now has over 40 writers working for her who all work hard to help thousands of executives, entrepreneurs, sales stars, business leaders, and professionals from around the world to create professionally branded LinkedIn profiles.

Donna is also the author of the book “LinkedIn Profile Optimization For Dummies,” published by Wiley.

Now, Let’s be honest, when was the last time you took a detailed look at your own LinkedIn profile?  How many of you know it could be a little better and yet we still haven’t done anything to improve it?  Or perhaps the question we should be asking ourselves is this – what incredible opportunities are we missing out on because of an un-optimised profile?

LinkedIn has over 610 million professionals in over 200 countries listed on the platform and for many, LinkedIn provides the first impression of you that others see.  So why aren’t we using it to its fullest extent?  What can we do to ensure we are leveraging the power of the platform more effectively?

Fear not!  Because Linkedin Profile branding expert Donna Serdula is here to help!

Donna has been featured on Forbes, Business Insider, Time’s Money Section, Wall Street Journal’s Market Watch, LA Times, NBC, SiriusXM Radio’s The Focus Group, and many other news outlets so without further ado, lets welcome Donna Serdula to the show!

Nick Day  is joined on The Payroll Podcast sofa by Andy Nicol , a former British Lion and Scotland International Rugby Captain, member of the BBC Sport team and CEO of ABSTRACT an award-winning learning and development company specialising in Coaching Leadership, Resilience and Decision-Making.  🏉🏉

In today’s episode, Nick will be asking Andy about building modern-day resilience through his experiences as he transitioned from elite sport to the media and then to the business world through his journey from the changing room to the green room, to the modern-day boardroom.

What Andy has learned during his rugby career has helped him in his media career and the skills he has developed in his TV work have helped him in his business work and this has driven Andy to focus on supporting boardrooms with the ABSTRACT Accelerate Programmes, which won the Diversity Initiative of the Year at the Women in Finance Awards in Dublin, and has so far helped over 2000 women in UK, Ireland and worldwide to develop and manage their careers.

Andy won 23 caps for Scotland, was captain of Bath , when he became the first British player to lift the Heineken Cup  in 1998 and he even captained Scotland in 2000 when Scotland beat England  19–13 at a rain-soaked Murrayfield  to prevent England from achieving the Grand Slam ! So Andy is someone who certainly knows what it takes to lead, be led and operate at the highest level, which is why Nick is delighted to welcome him to The Payroll Podcast show!

In this “Building Modern-Day Payroll Resilience” episode with Andy Nicol on The Payroll Podcast , we also explore:

• 🚀Could you give us a quick tour of your career to date that led you from the green room to the boardroom?
• 🚀How would you define resilience?
• 🚀How has resilience through the years changed?
• 🚀When did you see this shift start to change and why is it critical that businesses and leaders are aware of this shift and change?
• 🚀Can you share examples of people showing resilience?
• 🚀 The Kübler Ross’ Change Curve - how it can help you to understand resilience and our reactions to setbacks.
• 🚀Andy’s 5 pillars to help build modern-day resilience
• 🚀Tools & techniques to apply to improve our reactions to setbacks
• 🚀Why a "failure is an event, not a person"
• 🚀How does constant change affect resilience?
• 🚀Why understanding your "WHY" is essential.

Why Aligning HR with Marketing is Critical with Neil Bedwell #32

Nick Day is joined on The HR L&D Podcast sofa by Neil Bedwell, Founding Partner and President at LOCAL, a Change Marketing consultancy.

Prior to starting LOCAL Neil led global digital marketing at Coca-Cola and ran the brand’s digital program for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

Now, Neil and his team use consumer marketing techniques inside some of the world’s biggest and best companies (including Capital One, Kaiser Permanente, South West Airlines, Chick-fil-A, P&G, UPS) to engage with and build belief amongst companies’ most valuable assets — their people.

Neil knows that it is the companies that put People First that will survive and thrive post-pandemic which is why HR and Marketing need to be more aligned if businesses want to truly fuel future growth.

Neil wants to inspire HR practitioners to think and work like marketers to build belief, fuel adoption, and create opportunities for all employees to become owners of change. Why? Because the future of work depends on it.

Neil is a regular speaker, Forbes writer, and media guest, where he offers a transparent, engaging deep dive into current research, practical examples, and burning questions around the new space of Change Marketing that is disrupting and improving how HR and people leaders approach employee engagement, company culture, and the employee experience.

In this “Why Aligning HR with Marketing is Critical” episode with Neil Bedwell on The HR L&D Podcast, we also explore:

* In these times of turbulence and rapid change, focusing on employees is more critical, and more challenging, than ever before. Can you tell us more about why this harmony between Marketing and HR is so important?

* The correlation between engaged employees and company performance is increasingly well documented (with some recent studies claiming that highly engaged employees outperform those with low engagement by 250%). So why do so many companies STILL treat their employees like an afterthought?

* What is LOCAL’s unique approach to this macro problem, and how did you land it?

* What the biggest mistake most companies make when thinking about employee engagement?

* Why do you think the future of work depends on HR and Marketing being closely aligned?

* If I’m an HR leader listening to this, where should I start?

* Something that has been disrupting how HR and people leaders approach employee engagement, company culture, and the employee experience – is Change Marketing - can you tell us more about this?

* How can HR practitioners listening to this start to create opportunities for their employees to become owners of change?

In these Bite-sizes of the Payroll Podcast, I select my favourite moments from previous episodes. This one comes from Episode 41, where I speak with Bryan Seely, Cyber Security Keynote Speaker. In this clip, he unpacks the tangible standards and steps HR leaders need to have in place to stay secure – and why you need to assume hacks.

Bite-sized: Cyber Security Standards with Bryan Seely

Nick Day is joined on The Payroll Podcast by Ted Bechman , the Chief Finance Officer and Founder of Income Group !

Now, with everyone predicting that 2023 will be a year of evolution for the payroll industry, Nick invited Ted Bechman on to the 121st episode of The Payroll Podcast Show to find out more about a hot topic that exists right in the centre of this evolution and that’s to discuss Earned Wage Access(also known as EWA) or Pay-On-Demand services as its also known.

Nick wanted to determine what EWA means for payroll – is it an opportunity or a threat?

Income Group have recently developed IGsend, an Instant Payment service for busy payroll teams. IGsend is a solution that enables payroll teams and small business owners to make instant payroll payments in just a couple of clicks, enabling employees to be paid more frequently or in line with their working patterns.

There is a lot of misconception around current EWA solutions, with many payroll professionals still unaware of how far the needle has moved since the concept was first introduced. For example, the Income Group EWA IGsend solution comes at no additional cost to employees, meaning they can access wages earned in real-time for free.

So, with 80% of employees saying they would prefer to have their pay automatically streamed into their bank accounts as they earn it and with 91% of millennial workers stating that they think their employer should provide Earned Wage Access – Nick wanted to find out more today about the evolution of Earned Wage Access and who better to ask than the founder of Income Group – Ted Bechman!

In this “EWA - Opportunity or Threat for the Payroll Professional?” episode with Ted Bechman on The Payroll Podcast , we also explore:

• What does the word payroll mean to you?
• Why is the payroll professional community the best-kept corporate secret?
• Is humility always a strength?
• EWA is not new – why is it different this time?
• Are we now in the perfect storm of need, technology and management?
• There has been pushback from the Payroll community - are the concerns justified?
• EWA is just the beginning of the journey - what is the direction of travel?
• Is EWA a cost of employment?
• Should the employee bear the cost of EWA in part?
• Is the return on investing in EWA compelling?
• What do you think the future of payroll looks like?

Welcome listeners to today’s episode of the Payroll Podcast. We’re excited to have Bruce van Wyk, a seasoned tech entrepreneur, PaySpace co-founder and now Global CEO. PaySpace was recently acquired by Deel to be integrated as their exclusive payroll calculation engine.

The acquisition is Deel’s largest to date and represents an enormous step toward their goal of being the one-stop-shop for all things global payroll & HR. By acquiring and integrating PaySpace, Deel will be the first EOR with its own multi-country global payroll calculation engine, as well as a standalone payroll SaaS subsidiary.

The PaySpace global toolset was identified by Deel as the differentiator that could achieve this ambition, and today we are going to find out about how PaySpace tech is going to help Deel to fast-track localisation in multiple territories.

Topics we broke down:

- What is the big deal about global payroll, and does a truly global payroll system exist?

- How did PaySpace start, and what sets it apart in the payroll tech industry?

- What does Deel intend to do with PaySpace technology?

- What is the timeline to achieving these goals?

- What are the complexities and opportunities of managing multi-country payroll compliance?

- What benefits do full stack localized payroll engines offer, and what challenges do they overcome?

- How does the PaySpace M&A further Deel’s mission and support your vision for the future of payroll?

Hosted by Nick Day, CEO of JGA Recruitment and host of The Payroll Podcast, this special Halloween edition of Payroll Question Time, brought to you by SD Worx, delves into the major payroll challenges triggered by the UK’s 2024 budget. 

Join our expert panel as we dissect the impact of new tax policies, national insurance increases, and minimum wage adjustments that are set to reshape payroll compliance and business strategies for 2024.

In this episode, we explore the Employment Rights Bill 2024, analyzing the push for guaranteed hours, enhanced statutory sick pay (SSP) provisions, and the implications of shifting wage law enforcement from civil to criminal liability. From small business struggles to larger employer concerns, our panel unpacks what these changes mean for payroll operations and the heightened compliance risks they introduce.

We also discuss how the introduction of the Fair Work Agency (FWA) and its powers to investigate and audit businesses for payroll compliance could transform how employers approach holiday pay, minimum wage, and zero-hour contracts. With insightful perspectives on how these developments could affect recruitment, wage growth, and salary sacrifice schemes, this episode provides critical guidance for businesses navigating a challenging regulatory landscape.

This episode is packed with essential information to help you stay informed and prepared for 2024’s payroll shifts.
