UNLEASH: Is disruption the new normal?

At the end of 2017, HR Tech World rebranded as UNLEASH – an exciting new look for an organisation already disrupting the polite world of HR events. Fast forward a few months and I am en route to attend UNLEASH London. When I was choosing my sessions in the build up to the event, trying…

HR Tech World San Francisco: Links and Resources

I couldn’t make it to the inaugural HR Tech World San Francisco this week. But despite the FOMO I have been able to keep up with the insights shared via social media. So for others that couldn’t get there, or those that are but couldn’t be in several places at once, I have curated as…

HR Tech World Spring: Links and resources

Unfortunately, a random bout of tonsilitis has kept me away from the energy, excitement and insight at this week’s HR Tech World Spring in London. Gutted doesn’t cover it.
