#HRWonderWomen with @tmrasberry

It's been a few years since I first connected with Tamara on Twitter. It was likely via #nextchat, because, yeah, that's where I met 90% of my HR friends and contacts. We got to meet in person at #SHRMVLS where she, Anne, Janelle and I bonded over some great food & drink. We met up …

#HRSocialHour Episode 49 with Chris Fields (@resumecrusade)

Last summer, I knew it was time for a job change and so I reached out to Chris Fields aka @Resumecrusade. I had heard a podcast he did with Joey Price a while ago and thought about reaching out, but never really did. He was great to work with. He provided a great product after …

#HRSocialHour Episode 31 with @ChrisOrozco72

We had a great time chatting with Chris in this episode! He and Jon geek out (and confound me) on video games -- and I'm pretty sure this is the episode that led directly to Jon's round table discussion on pop culture. We got to hang out with Chris on the #SHRM18 blog team in …

#HRSocialHour Chat: Goals!

Recently, Jon and I sat down to record the 50th episode of the HR Social Hour podcast. Anyone who does podcast will tell you that we've done a lot of podcasts! For our 50th, we asked our listeners to send us some questions and we got some good ones! I think my favorite was Ben …

#HRSocialHour Episode 42 with @mollielombardi

Our Thanksgiving episode featured Mollie Lombardi of HR Gives Back. We were introduced to Mollie by Laurie Ruettimann who is a huge supporter of this awesome movement to support Parkinson's Research. We hope that when you are looking for somewhere to give your donations, you will consider HR Gives Back! But Mollie is much more than …

#HRSocialHour Episode 31 with @mfaulkner43

I've written about my past experience of stalking Mary Faulkner and meeting her in person a few times (favorite had to be at #DisruptHRDen). Mary is crazy smart, sassy and sarcastic. She is un-apologetically nerdy. She's one I'd love to sit and chat with all evening. We talk about HR in the public sector, DisruptHR, …

#HRSocialHour Episode 30 with @beneubanks

Ben Eubanks is one of those HR professionals I would have called "HR Famous." Everyone in the HR social media world knows who he is. He has his own podcast ("We're Only Human"). He's a writer and speaker. I knew of him long before I knew him. He also made the effort to reach out …

#HRSocialHour & @Namely = a great partnership!

Jon and I are so excited to be partnering with Namely! We had the opportunity to meet with them at #SHRM18 and we love what they are doing. We invited Debra Squyres, Chief Client Officer, to be a part of the podcast. And now, they are going to join us for our next #HRSocialHour Chat …

#HRSocialHour Episode 25 with @DavetheHRCzar

I've been following Dave for quite some time, and of course based on his Twitter user name alone, right? I got to meet Dave for the first time at SHRM VLS and he introduced me to the Moscow Mule, which has become my drink of choice if I'm not sure what kind of wine is …

Privilege. And a new venture

I've been thinking about privilege a lot lately. I've never really considered myself privileged. I've been "lucky" or "blessed" but not privileged? That meant fabulously wealthy (like on Life Styles of the Rich & Famous), right? Like people who lived in large cities in a fancy house who sent their kids to a private school …
