@FestivalofWork @CIPD @Cheese_Peter shared a CFO told him the problem with HR is you bring too much PowerPoint and not enough Excel. Harsh but we do need to get more comfortable with numbers and reporting on why we are doing what we are doing and what impact it will have

Happy Star Wars Day (belated). As for the picture … yes that is @MarkHamill not a waxwork figure taken @SW_Celebration event pre pandemic. This picture probably only lasted 10 seconds for Mark but will last a lifetime for myself. #starwars #starwarsday #darkside

The mass firing of 900 staff over Zoom makes for a great case study of what not to do. The irony of the name of the business prompts me to say: Do Better. A lot Better. My thoughts @hrmagazine available at lnkd.in/dntfbpnC #Massfiring #redundancy #hr #kindness #business – at Birmingham, England
