Dear People:

Here's the article that won't die: readers and friends still send me this link to an article, Why Does Everyone Hate HR?, that appeared in Fast Company a few years ago but is still relevant today. I received the link again this week from a colleague and I am sharing it with you in case you missed it the first time around. Why Does Everyone Hate HR? stresses areas that all of us in this profession need to be aware of and perhaps, modify. I refer you also to my post on the topic that generated over fifty comments when I asked the question, Does Everybody Hate HR?

Do you know that I write a new blog post every day? Check out the blog in the center column on my home page.

Comments, questions, suggestions? Email Me.

Please forward this newsletter, in its entirety, to your colleagues, coworkers and friends, because you want to add value to their work and lives.

Regards and wishing you and yours the best this weekend,

Susan
