Welcome to my blog. I hope you find something of interest here: as with many bloggers I use my blog to offer thoughts on stuff as and when they occur to me in the hope that they’ll resonate with someone. As an HR person they do tend to be about HR and management issues – but not exclusively! I hope you enjoy what I have to say. Or at least find it thought-provoking. Or disagree violently with it…. If you do any of those please do comment here on the blog or on Twitter.
If you want to read something a bit longer, how about checking out a book on the role of social media at work, co-written with the awesome Gemma Dale, available from Amazon here.
