The More You Know

Some of you may recognize the logo above and the phrase “The More You Know” as the NBC public service campaign tagline prevalent in TV advertising for the last 20 or so years.  Its purpose? To educate the public, raise awareness on important issues and inspire Americans to take action.

One of the things that we at Ascentis pride ourselves on is the many years of HR and Payroll experience that our staff brings to our clients.  We understand their needs because we’ve been in their shoes.  We continue to know what we know because we stay abreast of current workforce management issues and update our product offering to be flexible and customizable to create solutions for the changes that arise with our ever-changing workforce. One of the ways we stay ahead of the game is to read a good number of industry blogs daily.  This post compiles our 10 most favorite workforce management related blogs that we want to share with you, kind of like our own personal “The More You Know” PSA for human capital management.

  9. HR Marketer: HR Marketer is a blog for companies who sell products or services to human resource executives.
