The Alternative Board - South Africa

We just came off the holiday season, which was a tricky time for many businesses that experience seasonal ups or downs. Seasonal fluctuations can happen any time of year, depending on the industry. The key to navigating seasonal fluctuations is strategic workforce management. Instead of constantly hiring and losing staff with each season, it is important to focus on building a strong, adaptable team that can keep your business running smoothly year-round. Ready to optimize your workforce and stay productive no matter the season?

Stacey Putka didn’t set out to be a businesswoman. She wanted to change lives and improve employment and business opportunities for incarcerating individuals poised to re-enter their communities. So, she launched her Colorado-based nonprofit, Breakthrough, to do just that. Stacey knew that for Breakthrough to be a success, the organization had to be founded on more than just mission and vision. As a leader, she needed good solid business acumen and expertise. Stacey said, “I knew that nonprofit leaders aren’t usually expected to operate like business CEOs, which is a huge problem. That’s why so many organizations don’t have great outcomes.” So, Stacey joined The Alternative Board! She said her Alternative peer advisory board provides her with actionable solutions to common challenges that are universal to every type of business. “I always assumed you should run a nonprofit the same way you run a business.” Learn more about Stacey’s journey, her organization, and her Alternative Board experience in this Member Case Study from The Alternative Board. https://lnkd.in/g5inQjtu Contact The Alternative Board today for a no-obligation coffee meeting.

AI is reshaping how we work, and HR is no exception. From hiring to employee development, AI is streamlining processes and freeing up HR teams to focus on people rather than paperwork. Imagine recruitment tools that find the perfect candidate faster or programs tailored to promote individual growth goals. While the human element remains at the heart of HR, AI can take over many repetitive and time-consuming tasks, allowing you to focus on building stronger, more engaged teams. AI in HR is not just about saving time—it’s about transforming the way we attract, nurture, and retain talent.
