    Dear Hiring Manager: Is the Cover Letter Dead?
    Sep 30 2026
    Episode Blurb: Generative AI can spin up a polished cover letter in seconds, so what are employers still using it to screen for? Kat Kibben, founder and CEO of Three Ears Media, unpacks why the cover letter isn't really dead — it's just misunderstood. Diving into their personal experience working with recruiters in various industries, Kibben shares how better job postings, structured interviews, and skills-first scorecards help employers cut bias at the top of the funnel, define what "good" candidate actually means, and make hiring decisions grounded in evidence instead of gut instinct.

    Promoted but Unprepared: How AI Coaching Is Helping New Leaders
    Sep 16 2026
    Episode Blurb: New leaders often check every box: training, workshops, and even a coach. Yet many still feel unprepared for the moment real decisions land on their desk. Alex Marcus and Jamie Albers, co-CEOs and co-founders of Mento, a member of SHRM’s 2026 WorkplaceTech Accelerator cohort, explain why traditional coaching models are hitting a wall — and how pairing certified coaches with AI-powered insights closes the gap between mindset work and measurable business impact. They break down their 80/20 coaching philosophy, share where AI strengthens the human connection instead of replacing it, and flag exactly where organizations need to move carefully.

  • Recalibrate, Don't Retreat: The New Rules of Inclusion and Diversity at Work

    Recalibrate, Don't Retreat: The New Rules of Inclusion and Diversity at Work
    Sep 2 2026
    Good intentions are no longer enough when it comes to supporting inclusion & diversity in your organization. In this new era shaped by shifting enforcement and rising incivility, the leaders who thrive treat I&D like any other core business process — measured, documented, and built to last. Carolynn Johnson, president of SHRM's Center for I&D and acting CEO of SHRM Linkage, brings clarity to a topic buried in confusion. She explains what's really changing with I&D at the federal level, why the laws themselves haven’t moved, and how HR can respond with confidence instead of fear.
