    E3: Hire Traits, Train Skills

    In this month's episode, MSOM Instructors, Jim Burgin and Travis McNeal discuss why it's important to hire employees based on their traits instead of experience or expertise. Also available on YouTube.  About: Too many times hiring mangers find themselves saddled with people that have outstanding expertise and experience but have traits/characteristics (work ethic or dedication, for instance) that make all the functional knowledge seem less helpful. Travis and Jim contend that hiring traits (integrity, empathy) and then training the skills they need makes for a better team member and workplace.  Changing traits, or even slightly modifying a person’s character is very difficult. Dr. Morris Massey, who was a sage on this subject, believed that most people have a high percentage of their “gut level value system” from a very young age and it takes a significant emotional event to change their values. Travis and Jim are not only some of our most experienced Organizing for Change instructors, but also have years successfully building and leading teams.

    E1: Cybersecurity: Not Just for IT Professionals Anymore

    In this episode, Rich Ham, Associate Director, MSOM and MSEM programs and instructor and Rashone Tate, cybersecurity expert and MSOM instructor discuss how keeping our data safe is everyone's responsibility. Cybersecurity is an all-encompassing term that includes the intersection of the physical and digital worlds. Just a few years ago, operations managers and leaders throughout government and industry could secure networks by simply hiring a few good IT specialists and a Chief Information Officer. Those days are over. Phishing, sophisticated social engineering and even nation-state agents are attacking thousands of times a day.  Securing information at all levels requires a culture throughout an organization. #learnituseit #operationsmanagement #cybersecurity #socialengineering #infosecurity #datasecurity
