We've all been the new kid at the conference. Everyone remembers their first, right? And how many of us had a huge group of friends to help us through that first conference? Probably not many of us. I'd been going to state conferences for a couple of years before I got the opportunity to attend …

I'm going out of order here, but for good reason. Jon & I were able (finally) to connect with Jessica Miller-Merrill and I had to share about this podcast prior to #SHRM18 to encourage you all to follow that hashtag AND #NotatSHRM18 on Twitter and join the Facebook group. Jon and I (and Jazmine) will …

Another great #HRSocialHour conversation was had on 3/25/18! We had a few people doing some multi-tasking as there was some crazy games in March Madness happening and 60 Minutes decided to air it's interview with Stormy Daniels at the same time. Could we really compete? Yes. Yes we can. We had quite a few first …
On a whim, I applied to speak at #DisruptHRDen in March 2018. Obviously, I love the whole #DisruptHR movement so it wasn't a lot of arm twisting to want to attend in Denver and I usually use speaking as an "excuse" to make a trip (like I did in Minneapolis). I knew I could see …
When I first started this blog, one of my "pie in the sky" goals was to be invited to be a part of the SHRM national conference blog squad. I didn't know how people are chosen for the squad, but I put it out on Twitter during SHRM 17. The universe must have heard me, …
When I first came on to the professional world, I heard a lot of talk about Networking. You need to Network. It's good for your career. It will help you find your *dream job*. But it always seemed so complicated and for someone else. I was never quite sure how it applied to me. I'd, …
Around the time of #SHRM17, Steve Browne had a book published. He titled it "HR On Purpose !!" (and yes, the !! are on purpose!). Now I love reading what Steve shares on Twitter and on his blog. Steve is a positive force for HR. You cannot hear him, or listen to him and not …
What a fantastic conversation we had to close out the long Thanksgiving Holiday weekend (at least for those of us in the US). I really enjoyed spending a little extra time with my #HRSocialHour / #HRTribe on Twitter. Jon & I have a few things brewing for 2018, so we are so thankful for everyone …
After a phenomenal "continental" breakfast (which included breakfast pizza & smoothies!), I was stuck deciding between Ignite - a DisruptHR type of session listing to other HR leaders like Steve Browne, John Baldino, Melissa DeVore, Rose Morales, [and 4 others whose names I'm trying to find!!] -- and a session on "Delivering a WOW Membership …
Day 2 of #SHRMVLS is a bit of a blur. Lots of great speakers, hanging with great folks. I wanted to do a quick recap of the 3 sessions I attended to share some of the great stuff from this conference. Breakfast started with Karin Hurt giving her talk "Seven Ways to Turn Your Volunteers into …
