HR departments are rapidly adopting #AI, with 80% of companies now using AI-driven tools for recruiting, onboarding, and employee engagement. AI is cutting hiring time by up to 25%, reducing bias in candidate screening, and automating administrative tasks, allowing HR teams to focus on strategy and employee experience (LinkedIn). Herb Dew mentions on Let’s Talk HR how HTI is implementing AI.

Replacing a top employee can cost 90% to 200% of their salary, factoring in recruitment, training, lost productivity, and team morale (SHRM). At HTI, our site leaders prioritize regular communication with employees on the manufacturing floor, blending formal discussions with casual check-ins to build trust and reliability. Observing daily operations helps identify challenges early and recognize standout performances, creating a culture of appreciation and engagement. Just like great coaches invest in their players, investing in employees through consistent, meaningful touchpoints ensures we don’t lose our star players—on the court or in the #workplace.

It was great being a part of the HR Law Conference last week. Did you catch our mascot? With everything HR professionals have to juggle, sometimes you just want to scream.

Herb Dew offers insight on "Let's Talk HR" with Rick Jenkins in partnership with HTI and Greenville SHRM about how managing generational differences in the workplace is key to building a harmonious and productive environment. With a rise in Baby Boomers retiring, we now have one of the youngest workforces in decades. Effectively balancing values and work styles is essential for fostering collaboration and improving retention across teams. How is your organization adapting to support and engage a multigenerational workforce?

#EmployeeAppreciationDay is a great reminder that retention isn’t about grand gestures—it’s about consistently showing up for your people. A simple “thank you” note, recognizing hard work, and celebrating wins (big or small) all add up. When we prioritize appreciation, we build teams that stay, grow, and thrive. Because in the end, it’s intentional, consistent things that make the biggest impact. How do you show appreciation for your team?
