Today marks the end of the 14th series of the #AdventBlogs - my 6th and final series as curator. Today's #AdventBlogs post is from me. One last post... epichr.co.uk/2025/01/13/adve…

#AdventBlogs - I let you go - Epic HR

Today we reach the end of the 14th series of the #AdventBlogs. It has been my 6th and final series as Curator, so this is both my post for the series and a farewell post. The series will resume later...

In today's penultimate #AdventBlogs post of the series, Michelle Parry-Slater reflects on whether she really wanted to move to Australia. epichr.co.uk/2025/01/12/adve…

#AdventBlogs - I didn't want to leave - Epic HR

This is our penultimate post of the series, and the first time I’m scheduling a post in 2025. I have today announced on social media when the series will end, so you’re only reading this a few days...

#AdventBlogs - I don't want to go back - Epic HR

We are fast approaching the end of our series and we have two posts left. It is still 2024 as I type this, New Year’s Eve in fact, but well into January for you and I am pleased that the series has...

#AdventBlogs - A bit orchestrated - Epic HR

My announcement of the imminent deadline had the predicted effect and lots of posts have been received in the days leading up to that deadline. The deadline has now passed though and we are into our...

In today’s #AdventBlogs post @SharonGChiara remembers her neighbour. epichr.co.uk/2025/01/09/adve…

#AdventBlogs - I did not want to go - Epic HR

Strange to think that a few days ago I thought our series might only get to 2nd January, and here we are on 9th January. Nothing like a deadline to get people writing. The end is definitely near now...

#AdventBlogs - Tradition - Epic HR

As I thought might happen, the announcement of the imminent ending of this series has prompted a few more posts. I do still suspect we are very close to ending, and I will of course announce if we...

I didn’t think our series would get this far, but I’m immensely pleased that it has. We are within a few days of finishing though – unless, as sometimes happens, people see that declaration and get...

Our series continues into its sixth week but we are getting closer to the end. As usual though as soon as I tell people that, there is a flurry of posts. This is one of three that arrived within the...

This marks the end of our fifth week of the series, and we will get at least some way into a sixth. This is really encouraging for the future of this series. There is still some time left to send a...

#AdventBlogs - Further into the dark? - Epic HR

It seems a bit of an odd day today. Half of us will be working, and half won’t. It seems like the world of work and normal life may not get back to normal until Monday. It is a strange few days, like...

How is 2025 shaping up for you? Perhaps you are returning to work today – perhaps you have a few more days. Our series is going well too – I’m writing this pre-Christmas but for you it could already...

In today's #AdventBlogs post @GaryBPT had to leave, but didn't want to. NB for the next 5 days the posting of the socials for the blogs will be delayed by 5 hours or so. epichr.co.uk/2025/01/01/adve…

#AdventBlogs - I'm glad I left - Epic HR

Welcome to 2025. That seems odd to say, as it is still mid-December as I write this, and the new year seems a long way off. Our series will continue hopefully well into January, but we are undoubte...

Only a few days until Making Hybrid Working Work is published (koganpage.com/hr-learning-de…). If the world of work isn't working quite so well for your organisation, why not fix it? I'd love to chat to you once you've read the book to see what you think. #MakingHybridWorkingWork

And here we are ending 2024. It seems only moments ago that I began curating this series in 2019, and I’m about to enter 2025 doing so – but not for much longer. I’m writing this in mid-December but...
