I particularly enjoyed this post from ‘TheHRD’ earlier this week. But I’ve already commented to say that I don’t totally agree with him. Given my connection to this topic (having just been blogging on it quite extensively, and being one of the people on one of the lists as well) I wanted to expand on my reasoning for suggesting it’s important. So are we saying influence isn’t important?

One of my E2.0 sessions was a panel looking a how HR can move out of its compliance role through the use of collaborative / 2.0 technologies. thought this was a good panel session, and was pleased that we seemed to come to the conclusion that HR is complex, not simple, and that getting beyond compliance means accepting, tolerating, and navigating through this complexity.

Anyone who has ever been pregnant on the job knows it's not easy. You try not to barf in meetings. Your feet get so swollen you can't get on any shoes besides your Nikes, and those make a less-than-professional impression. In the early part of your pregnancy, you can't think of eating without getting queasy. When that passes, you can't stop eating. Some co-workers, who think they're so darn funny, can't decide which is bigger: You or the Goodyear blimp. But how tough must it be to be pregnant when the economy is so bad? It's a topic I decided to explore for my Gannett/USAToday.com column.

Dear Evil HR Lady, I am 48 years old with an MBA in business management from a non-traditional university. In my younger years, I would skip around from job to job as boredom would quickly overtake the excitement of a new career path. Today, I find myself unemployed after being part of a department-wide downsizing a year and a half ago. For the past year and a half, I have been self-employed and have worked to build name recognition, but now I want to go back to being an employee. My broad and diverse background is a gentle way to express the many things I’ve done in life.
