Enterprise Automation: How to Make 100 Employees Feel Like 1,000

Header image: Enterprise Automation: 100 Feels Like 1,000

Enterprise automation is the coordinated use of rules, workflows, integrations, user-interface automation, and governed AI to move work across an organization with less manual coordination. It does not remove people from the operating model. It gives them a reliable system for routine work while preserving human ownership of judgment, exceptions, and consequential decisions.

That is how 100 employees can feel like 1,000: not because automation creates a literal tenfold productivity guarantee, but because the same team can spend less time copying data, chasing status, routing requests, and repeating predictable steps. The useful question is not whether a task can be automated. It is which parts should be automated, which controls must remain visible, and where a person needs to decide.

FSSC 22000: How to Ensure You Have a Robust Food Safety Management System

Food safety quality manager operating a sanitary certification inspection rig

Bread. Beer. Bacon. No matter what tasty food product your organization is creating, or helping to create, a robust food safety management system is essential. FSSC 22000 gives food organizations a certifiable system built around ISO 22000, sector-specific prerequisite programs, and additional scheme requirements.

Without a strong food safety management system, food can be exposed to risks and hazards that threaten consumers, trade opportunities, and the organization itself. The scheme turns food safety policy into connected work that can be implemented, audited, improved, and trusted across the supply chain.

What Is an Employee Assistance Program (EAP)? Everything You Need to Know to Better Your Team

People operations leader opening an employee assistance support case with confidential referral pathways

An employee assistance program (EAP) is an employer-sponsored or union-sponsored benefit that gives employees confidential access to short-term counseling, assessment, referrals, and practical support for personal or work-related problems. Services vary by provider and location, but a credible EAP creates a clear route to qualified help without asking a manager to act as a clinician.

EAPs matter because employees do not leave grief, anxiety, family strain, substance-use concerns, financial stress, or relationship problems at the workplace door. In March 2025, 62% of civilian workers had access to an EAP, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This guide explains what EAPs cover, how confidentiality works, what benefits are realistic, and how to set up and administer a program responsibly.

Growth Hacking at Its Finest: DHL’s Trojan Mailing Stunt

The “DHL Is Faster” stunt is a growth hacking example that combined guerrilla marketing, ambient advertising, and viral distribution. In February 2014, German agency Jung von Matt released Trojan Mailing, a film showing rival couriers delivering oversized parcels that gradually revealed a DHL message.

The provenance is more complicated than the film suggests. The One Club award archive lists Jung von Matt/Stuttgart as the agency and DHL as the client. However, a DHL spokesperson told The Washington Post that DHL knew about the internal agency project but did not commission the video or expect it to be distributed publicly.

Evernote vs OneNote: The Best App for Note-Taking, Researching and Organizing?

Researcher comparing structured and freeform note-taking in Evernote and OneNote

Evernote vs OneNote for note-taking, researching, and organizing comes down to how you want to think. Treat note-taking researching and organizing as one connected workflow. Evernote is the stronger choice for capturing web research, filing it with notebooks and tags, and finding it later. OneNote is better when you want a freeform digital canvas for handwriting, mixed media, and notes that feel more like paper. Both can be excellent, but they reward different habits.

Process Street writer Benjamin Brandall arrived at this comparison after accidentally throwing his MacBook out of a moving car, spending two years on Windows, and then returning to a Mac. He expected to leave Microsoft software behind. Instead, OneNote surprised him, while his once well-indexed Evernote scrapbook had become a heap of Untitled Quick Notes. That tension between effortless capture and deliberate organization still defines the choice.

Fleet management software is a system for monitoring vehicles, drivers, maintenance, routes, fuel use, safety, and compliance from a shared operational view. It converts location and vehicle data into decisions that help fleet managers keep vehicles available, drivers supported, and work moving.

The best platform depends on what you operate and which problems you need to solve. A local service fleet may prioritize dispatch and maintenance, while a regulated carrier may need electronic logging, driver vehicle inspection reports, safety coaching, and a defensible record of corrective action. This guide explains the essential capabilities, selection criteria, and leading options.

Freelance Tips: How to Use Processes to Stay Productive

Freelancer presenting a documented client workflow to stay productive

Freelance productivity depends on repeatable processes that help you stay productive while keeping client work consistent, visible, and moving forward. A documented workflow turns recurring tasks into clear steps, owners, and evidence instead of relying on memory.

“How did I forget to follow up with that client?” There was a time when I used to think that as another golden opportunity passed me by. Freelancing already means finding clients, securing work, and delivering in a competitive market without adding avoidable human error into the mix.

This employee spotlight profiles Tara Larson, who led Revenue Operations at Process Street when this conversation took place in March 2022. Tara talks about the people behind RevOps, customer-first growth, and the experiences that shaped her work.

She arrived with a Harvard background in sociology and neurobiology, international experience across business, academia, and education, and a second life as a certified ski instructor. The role and company references below describe that point in time.

Employee Psychology: How to Skyrocket Workforce Productivity

Employee psychology is the practical study of how people think, feel, relate, and behave at work. It helps managers understand the conditions that support employee motivation, well-being, engagement, and workforce productivity, including autonomy, meaningful work, developmental relationships, psychological safety, and the chance to use personal strengths.

Those conditions affect more than morale. Gallup reported that 20% of employees worldwide were engaged at work in 2025, while its 2024 Q12 meta-analysis linked engagement with productivity and ten other business outcomes across 183,806 work units. The goal is not to hack employee behavior. It is to design work and management practices that help people contribute, learn, and perform without sacrificing trust.
