			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" style="float: left;" src="http://www.hauntedprops.com/ProductImages/aaaaavalue/Evil_Clown_29197_lg.jpg" alt="Scary clown" width="95" height="117" />I know, clowns are scary. Â But put your fears aside and embrace the laurels of the &#8220;<a title="HR Carnival" href="http://strategic-hcm.blogspot.com/2008/06/super-sexy-hr-carnival-35.html" target="_blank">HR Carnival</a>&#8220;, aÂ BedouinÂ blog post that summarizes all the best stories and opinions of over 20 of the best HR bloggers in the world. Â <a title="HR Carnival #35" href="http://strategic-hcm.blogspot.com/2008/06/super-sexy-hr-carnival-35.html" target="_blank">Today&#8217;s post</a> is #35 in the series and is hosted by <a title="Jon Ingham bio" href="http://jgingham.googlepages.com/home" target="_blank">Jon Ingham</a> of <a title="Strategic HCM" href="http://www.strategic-hcm.com/" target="_blank">Strategic Dynamics Consultancy Services</a>Â in the UK.</p>
<p>There is a lot of great stuff in Jon&#8217;s summation, with a main topical thrust on HR bloggers who address the &#8220;sexiness&#8221; (or lack thereof) of HR:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The need for HR to become more sexy is explained byÂ <a href="http://www.fistfuloftalent.com/2008/05/part-2-bringing.html">Jessica Lee at Fistful of Talent</a>. Jessica lists a number of areas in which development could make us sexier, for example by making more investment in social media. And helping up us gain a better understanding of this area areÂ <a href="http://perceptivehrtech.com/2008/06/03/web-20-is-multi-dimensional/">Larry Dunivan at Perceptive HR Technology</a>, commenting on an earlier post by Jason Corsello, andÂ <a href="http://birchtreehr.com/blog/?p=25">Janet Walsh at Strategic Thinking</a>.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Still confused by what sexy HR means? Well, some good examples of definitely not sexy HR are provided byÂ <a href="http://hrwench.blogspot.com/2008/05/your-employment-brand-sucks.html" target="_blank">HR Wench</a>Â andÂ <a href="http://laurieruettimann.com/2008/06/10/worst-hr-interview-the-story/">Laurie Ruettimann at Team Building is for Suckers</a>Â and some suggestions for being sexy in the downturn are offered byÂ <a href="http://www.knowhr.com/blog/2008/05/12/10-things-hr-needs-to-do-in-this-economic-downturn/">Frank Roche at KnowHR</a>.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>I&#8217;d suggest you take some time to check out some of the links and other HR bloggers. Â These are some of theÂ knowledgeable, perceptive,Â insightfulÂ and even grumpy HR professionals producing interesting content on a regular basis.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s keep the conversation going.Â </p>
