I am speaking at an event called recruitDC on Thursday. I will talk about personal branding for HR and recruiting professionals. I have given this talk 100 times. Sometimes it’s geared for human resources professionals. Sometimes I talk to job seekers. And I have delivered this keynote in a bar to a bunch of drunks-slash-comedians. (This is…
I am just back from a great vacation where I spent Mother’s Day on a beach. That’s the kind of life you have when you are a writer who covers work, life and cats. Mother’s Day always prompts a superficial and short-lived national discussion motherhood, work, and the challenges facing the modern family. Nobody wants…
I hope you can join me for a live webcast on June 12th at 1PM ET. It’s called, “HR Revealed: Hidden ways you may be failing your people.” Vadim Liberman is the senior editor of The Conference Board Review, my boss, and moderator of the webcast. Yes, there is a moderator for an HRCI-certified internet chat…
I am about to keynote a fun event in Grand Cayman for the second year in a row. It’s probably one of the best HR conferences I’ve ever attended because it helped to shape my thinking on the subject of strategy. Your CEO has a coach. Your CFO has a mentor. They have someone who has…
I am pretty excited to host a webinar called, “HR Wins: Real Stories of Successful Talent Management Journeys.” Honestly, I am tremendously lucky to work with my dear friend, Connie Costigan, who is the Marketing Director at Halogen Software. Connie introduced me to Shelley Johnson, Tia Smith, and Andrea Resnik. These are three amazing women…
You have earned a vacation day. Whether or not you can afford a vacation is another story. Although many people are still mired in the credit card debt from before the recession, it’s still possible to turn off the computer and take a break from work without breaking the budget. Think local. Do you ever…
I was lucky enough to participate in a webinar with Gene Pease and Vestrics on the subject of workforce analytics. Gene and I talked about the future of human resources (people, data, information), and he took the time to define measurements, metrics and analytics for HR professionals. We both agree that the words are misused. If…
The one thing I’ve learned about being a solopreneur is that the cobbler’s children go unshod. I am helping a few HR technology companies create and implement progressive marketing strategies. I am coaching a few young women on how to be more effective human resources leaders. I am headed down to SHRM ATL to help…
I don’t have many career aspirations. At the age of 39, I thought I would be a human resources lady and a mom. The fact that I write and speak for a living is very crazy. And it’s even weirder when leaders ask me for strategic advice. I always think, “What the hell do I know? I’m…
I am excited to return to Grand Cayman on May 14 where I’ll keynote the 11th Annual CISHRP Conference. Let me get a few things out of the way. Yes, there are HR professionals in Grand Cayman. Yes, they have a conference. Yes, they are always looking for good human resources conference speakers like you.…
