Work Attitude is Crucial with Steve Gilliland

We have all been there dealing with that one employee who continuously meets his goals year-over-year but is awful to work with. Addressing bad attitudes at work is as important as getting to the finish line for organizations. Join Steve Gilliland and Shari Simpson as they discuss why a positive attitude is crucial to the success of your organization and what you can do to help your employees center on the right one.

Steve Gilliland built a multimillion-dollar company from the ground up on the same philosophy he expounds to his audiences. If you continually learn more about your company, your industry, your customer and yourself, you will always be a leader. You will be purpose-driven rather than process-driven, and you will make a difference. His motto is straightforward: “If you take care of people, the business will follow.” He has been recognized by Who’s Who for Speakers and Business Professionals, and The Pittsburgh Business Times named his company one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the region. Steve also serves on the board of directors for a financial institution, and he and his wife Diane launched the Gilliland Foundation in 2017 to provide funding that creates lasting solutions for causes they are passionate about.

He is recognized as a master storyteller and brilliant comedian. He can be heard daily on SiriusXM Radio’s Laugh USA and Jeff & Larry’s Comedy Roundup. With an appeal that transcends barriers of age, culture and occupation—plus an interactive and entertaining style—Steve shows audiences how to open doors to success in their careers, their relationships and their lives.

Evolution of Engagement: It’s All About Culture with Jim Knight

Company culture and values go far beyond what’s written on the About Us page on your website. Refocus the time spend considering how you appear to the outside world on how culture and values provide your staff a sense of purpose and meaning.

Company culture is so critical to an employee’s decision to join or stay at a company because today’s workforce prioritizes working for organizations whose culture aligns with their needs and ideals. As a result, they’re more productive, collaborative interactions with coworkers.

Renowned keynote speaker, author, and training and development expert Jim Knight joins this episode to talk about the importance of creating "rockstar" cultures.

Evolution of Engagement: The CEO’s Impact on Workplace Community with Steve Beauchamp

In today’s competitive hiring environment, organizations must rethink their approach to both recruiting and retention. In this episode, Paylocity CEO Steve Beauchamp joins host Shari Simpson to talk about the impact executives plan in building a welcoming, people-driven employee experience. Employee commitment rises when executive leaders are actively involved in building workplace community, taking the time to engage in social collaboration tools, recognize their employees' accomplishments, and encourage professional growth. And in turn, increased employee engagement and loyalty position those leaders and their organizations for long-term success.

Guest: Steve Beauchamp, Co-CEO, Paylocity

Guest Bio: A company is only as good as its people. And when I joined the company as CEO in 2007, I was excited by what I saw. I saw a company filled with incredibly talented people, all of whom were energized and ready to join me in taking Paylocity to the next level. I’m fortunate enough to be surrounded by the best people in the business — from our leadership team to our software engineers, sales team and all of our team members helping our clients every day. And they’ve all been with me every step of the way.

Together, we scaled the company nationally and went public in 2014. We relocated our national headquarters to a new office in Schaumburg, IL. We’ve done a lot of great things together. But the thing that makes me most proud is looking at the strong internal culture we’ve built. Because not only do our employees deserve it, our clients do as well. It all stems from my belief that a great culture is the key to delivering an exceptional client experience. And when you look at Paylocity, that’s what we do best. We partner with our clients to help them with whatever they need today so we can move forward together toward a tomorrow that is full of opportunity.

Inclusive Design Thinking with Kelly Johnson

In this episode, Paylocity Manager of Interactive Learning & Design Kelly Johnson and host Shari Simpson discuss the continuous process of adapting one's thinking and approach to better meet the needs of the end-user using inclusive design thinking.

At its core, design thinking in HR prioritizes the needs of the employee and develops solutions around that problem. Design thinking creates solutions centered around people rather than process. For example, using this approach, a product or service's user experience is continually improved based on evidence of how humans interact with it. Ultimately, the goal of design thinking is to find multiple human-centric solutions, and it transforms HR professionals’ roles to be about the experience rather than tasks.
