Cornerstone Editors

In the constant, fast-paced news cycle of today, we know it gets difficult to catch every HR trend, tip and thought sent your way. That's why we're starting a new series, "In Case You Missed It," to recap our most popular stories from every month.

Big data — and its potential to help companies predict which employees are likely to flourish or flail— is all the rage among HR departments today. What's most exciting about data-driven insights is that they're often surprising or counterintuitive — such as the discovery one company made that Ivy League graduates who once toiled in minimum wage jobs perform better at work than those who didn't.

Surprisingly, Merriam-Webster Dictionary's 2014 Word of the Year wasn't "selfie" or "twerking." Rather, it was something with a little more gravitas: "culture." Vivek Wadhwa, a tech entrepreneur and academic who has researched and written extensively about diversity in Silicon Valley, offers three signs your company’s culture isn't as inclusive as you'd like to think.
