Human Resources, Employment Culture and Big News from Aureon HR
Monday Jul 30, 2018
Monday Jul 30, 2018
Strap in as we cover lots of ground in the coming minutes. We sit down with Ned Flynn from Aureon HR, a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) and the first question is, "Tell us what Aureon HR...does." We think you'll be impressed with how a PEO helps businesses grow 7% faster... We move from there into a recent survey by Robert Half that indicated 54% of employees (the highest in the nation) in the Greater Des Moines Metro would leave their jobs because of a lack of wage growth, poor work culture or being under appreciated. We talk about System Organization Controls (SOC) and what that means for clients of Aureon and some big news regarding the future of Aureon and a company called Oasis Outsoursing. So much here you may have to listen twice.

The U.S. economy shot up by 4.1%...so, why? That story plus more tariff talk this time from Coca-Cola, CBS shares tanked today...why? Sexual misconduct stories some as old as 20 years. JC Penny quits chasing younger shoppers, Budweiser feeling the sting of not enough young consumers. Those stories the markets and a conversation with the first female to head the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE) in 104 years. You'll get to meet Sheree Anne Kelly in our interview segment.

We had the opportunity to broadcast from and record a number of interviews at the recent convention and education event of the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE). During that time we were surprised at how many people in cities and villages across the United States are working on issues like wage growth, affordable housing, skills training, employment opportunities and issues of equality. We asked the new President/CEO of ACCE, Sheree Anne Kelly about that and more in this conversation. And...if it sounds like we're "gushing" a bit...yep.

The Los Angeles Area Chamber - Creating Hope for Hundreds

Thursday Jul 26, 2018
When I saw that Gerry Feeney was with the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce we didn't know what to expect. Were we going to talk about Hollywood or bold new social and economic programs? It turned out it was the latter. Gerry has quite a story about how the Chamber and the County are working at finding work for hundreds which, in turn, gets them out of a life of crime and into the workforce. It turns out that this approach is not only cheaper than jail but also provides each person with hope. At the end of our conversation you'll learn what his motivation has been. From our time together at the Association of Chamber of Commerece Executives (ACCE) meet Gerry Feeney the Director of Smart Justice; it's a great story about creating hope for hundreds...
