There is a movement afoot that HR *must* get [...]

How JobAngels (And You) Have Changed My Life
[NOTE - The demographics in this post were updated on June 5, 2009] This is the longest time between posts in the history of our little blog.

Survey – Human Resources Professional Organizations (HRPOs)
A few months ago, Inflexion posed a question about human resources member-based forums, asking “With whom do you associate?” Â The response from the HR industry was swift and overwhelming, with hundreds of messages pouring in from all over the globe. Â What was immediately clear is that both HR professionals and corporate sponsors are struggling to [...]

Naked in the Leadership Classroom
Greetings readers.  Inflexion’s recent post about Robin Wolaner’s book, Naked in the Boardroom, reminded me that there are not only differences in the way that men and women lead, but that there are some differences in the way that men and women learn to lead. Using Wolaner’s metaphor, let’s think of this as Naked in the Leadership [...]
