We cannot manage people based on fads!
If you want to predict my personality based on my horoscope – Capricorn – go ahead. But then there are my December Capricorn friends who are nothing like a typical Capricorn. And if you know me and I ask, "What sign do you think I am?" you'll probably guess anything but Capricorn. When I reveal it, you'll say, "I knew it!" Sounds pretty similar to HR practices, doesn't it?

1dFunny enough, I still remember time horoscopes, signature decryption, even coffee guessing were quite legitimate HR tools. Corporate astrologists, numerologists, fortune tellers? Quite some times found in HR departments. Then these questionnable tools and specialists were replaced by psychometric and other tools called scientifically valudated. But are those scientifically looking stuff still remaining traces of esoteric practices from the past?
