Hello, friends! 👨🏻🎓 I'm excited to share news of my recent achievement: I have successfully passed the professional certification exam SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP). 📚 Recognizing that knowledge is true power, I realize how important it is to keep learning and growing in our fast-changing world. That's why I prioritize staying up-to-date on the latest HR trends and practices. It's amazing to be part of the global HR community of dedicated professionals committed to making a positive impact in the workplace. 🙌 Special words of gratitude to Anastasia Mizitova, SHRM-SCP, CPCC for her invaluable support and assistance in preparing for the exam. And of course thanks to my talented and motivating teammates at SaM Solutions. Your enthusiasm and positivity have contributed to creating an excellent work environment, and I appreciate it.

Well-being initiative is a program aimed at attracting and retaining employees, designed to increase the overall level of wellness in the team and involvement in work processes. The success rates of companies with a well-being program for employees are six times higher than the rest — these are the results that the CIPD came to in its research. During our corporate "Mental Health Month" with an experienced psychologist, my colleagues openly discuss such important topics as causes and prevention of emotional burnout, strategies for navigating uncertainty and supporting others in crisis. Taking care for mental health is vital. No one is safe from burnout, especially people whose profession is connected with communication, intellectual work and creativity. Introducing a well-being initiative into the corporate culture is the key to quality talent management in the company

4 busy days in Stockholm. Stockholm's enchanting beauty resembles a scene from a fairy tale, with its gingerbread houses, bright colors, and stunning architecture. It's a city that gracefully stands at the crossroads of time, seamlessly blending ancient traditions with modernity. During this visit, I immersed myself in the Swedish 🇸🇪 culture and nature at the Skansen Open-Air Museum, explored the city's subway in detail (and there’s a real art gallery there), embarked on an informative GuruWalk tour, and attended the captivating Banksy exhibition. My trip’s program also included ABBA The Museum, Drottningholm, boat trip, and a lot of walking. Many of you have probably heard about the new trend called “worktation” – a type of travel where you combine work with leisure. I totally like this approach and try to blend recreation activities with educational purposes. I often attend local HR events to meet and engage with interesting people, which helps me broaden my horizons, both professionally and personally. ✈️During this trip, I had the opportunity to visit Spotify's office in Stockholm. I've been captivated by the unique corporate culture of this company for a long time, and have delved into it by reading The Spotify Play and watching the docu-drama The Playlist. Special thanks to Tim K. who made my visit to the Spotify offices possible. I was able to ask a seasoned HR professional all the questions that interested me. 💡We discussed contemporary challenges that HR teams face, the importance of a unifying culture, well-being, synchronous and asynchronous communication, the evolving role of leaders in today’s fast-changing world, and touched on the topic of intercultural communication and internal mobility. 🤗 Many thanks to my former colleague Pavel Zhukov and his wife, who graciously served as my local guides, as well as to Tim. With newfound vigor, fresh insights, and renewed inspiration, I am now back to my work duties. #employeeexperience #LifeAtSpotify #worktation

It's important to recharge your batteries, but that's not what we're talking about today. I am keen on hiking. While having a great time hiking in the Lofoten Islands 🇳🇴this summer, I was wondering about the similarities between this activity and #EmployeeExperience. At first glance, there is not much in common, but if you dig deeper, you will find many parallels: 🚲Journey & Progression: Both hiking and the employee experience involve a journey or progression. In hiking, you embark on a physical journey through nature, with the goal of reaching a destination or summit. In the employee experience, individuals go through their own professional journey within an organization 👟Preparation & Training: Just like hikers need to prepare for their trips by gathering the right gear, acquiring specific knowledge, and training physically, employees should thoroughly prepare to get the desired position. Companies provide onboarding, training, and development opportunities to help employees succeed 🥾 Challenges & Obstacles: Hiking often presents challenges, such as difficult terrain, unpredictable weather, and physical exertion. Similarly, employees should overcome obstacles in the workplace, such as complex projects, tight deadlines, and interpersonal dynamics. In both cases, problem-solving capabilities and adaptability are required ⛹️♂️Teamwork & Collaboration: Hiking experiences may demand teamwork and cooperation, particularly during group hikes or in challenging conditions. In a similar vein, the employee experience encompasses working collaboratively with colleagues to accomplish common goals and projects. 📝Personal Growth & Learning: Hiking can be a means of personal growth and learning, as it provides opportunities to connect with nature, build resilience, and gain new skills. Similarly, the employee experience can contribute to personal and professional growth, as employees learn new skills, develop professionally, and adapt to changing work environments ⚖️Well-Being & Balance: Hiking is often associated with physical and mental well-being, as it offers a chance to disconnect from daily routines and reconnect with nature. A positive employee experience includes a focus on well-being, work-life balance, and employee health, as organizations aim to create a supportive and healthy work environment 🎯Setting & Achieving Goals: While out on a hike, it's typical to establish objectives such as conquering a peak or finishing a trail. Similarly, in a professional setting, employees frequently define and attain goals pertaining to their responsibilities, projects, and career advancement. 📧Feedback & Evaluation: Much like hikers assess their treks and derive lessons from their adventures, employees receive feedback and evaluation from their supervisors, shaping their personal and professional advancement. 🔋How do you recharge your batteries?

This year, SaM Solutions is celebrating its 30th anniversary. For me, this is a company about people, where you feel like you are surrounded by friends from the first day. The balance of friendly atmosphere and undeniable professionalism of our employees allows us to consider colleagues as friends. This is highly appreciated. Our HR team had a hand in organizing numerous memorable activities and events. It may often seem as simple as two times two, though there is long and meticulous work behind the scenes. We always strive to do our best, because the result of our work is always visible: a satisfied employee is a satisfied HR manager. Regardless of remote work, distributed teams, and different geographical locations, we continue to transmit this culture of openness and mutual support, where there is a lot of informal communication, jokes, and a sense of belonging to a common cause. Only forward! #samsolutions #30SaMWay

Summertime is always the best of what might be

Well done! Vadzim Papko, congratulations on your first successful high load training session. Pavel Veinik, thanks for your consultations with the launch!

I took part in a hackathon for #edtech. Our team comprising Vadim Birkos Andrei Tarasevich Vladimir Makhnach presented a chatbot based on AI, which helps to adapt a new employee within a company or project, as well as to further navigate all the company's processes. We were among the 10 teams (out of 18) that were allowed into the final pitching. We were not among the finalists, but we had a very cool experience. Such events stimulate critical thinking, teamwork skills, time management, ability to work in a stressful situation, ability to present the results of their work in a clear way, presentation skills and much more. Thanks to Spark venture studio for the great opportunity, and thanks to all the mentors Aleksey Areshnikov Daniela Chernyavskaya Dzianis Yatsenka Ruslan Odinets Alexander Drobyshevski Jane Belyh for practical advice and constructive criticism! #hackaton #chatgpt #startup
