#HRHour 📢

Since I have started my new role and the ever growing demands of a young family, my time to dedicate quality time on hosting this weekly chat is shrinking.

I’m looking to see if anyone would like to take over the mantle of the HRHour?

#PassTheBatton

Thank you. Am looking forward to it already - not sure just one hour is going to be enough time…!

Is Question Marks released as podcast pls 🙏🏾

Idea of this is what leads to sleepless #HRHour nights... 😬

So close to end, but you just had to go there didn't you? 🤣 #HRHour

Always. Send at your own risk 😬 #HRHour

Direct not mean. May help to take some of potential heat out of situation (hopefully) #HRHour

Big fan of wait and see if you still want to send it approach.

No one wants to be keyboard warrior #HRHour

Clearly I didn't communicate that well enough 😂

Spelling and grammer is fine. It's content which is not. And I suspect this is because more informal style has lead senior colleague to believe they can also relax level of professionalism which is still required #HRHour

I like to suggest someone might want to consider how they may feel if they had to listen to something they'd written being read aloud publicly but without being able to provide any further context or explanation 🤨 #HRHour

We shouldn't limit this to Gen Z. Currently supporting someone who is younger who is being impacted by (mis)use of more informal comms style by senior colleague. Am confident there's no way they would communicate what they have if they were using another more conventional method (e.g. email) #HRHour

If I see them first, I'll signpost you to tribunal papers or media reports as soon it happens #HRHour

We're going to hear about someone doing this sooner rather than later though (I fear) #HRHour

Hadn't considered potential advantages of ambiguity! 😆 #HRHour

Speed world is moving at currently, some workplaces might have to start banning use of these types of apps soon... 😬

Snap. Also, think using them can make some communication much harder because all normal cues can be absent #HRHour

Often imagine world (or even day) when we #HRHour people get to stop being professional 😜

Just for record, I can't stand these. Not sure if it's generational thing but (professionally) don't just want to hear from someone, want to speak with them #HRHour

Agreed. Like with all teams and team members, there needs to be focus on comms being constructive and clear for everyone #HRHour

🤷‍♀️ 🤣 #HRHour

💯

And can work well when those delegating and those delegated too understand each other and ideally share common values, approaches and ways of working

#HRHour

Agreed. Good management is also similar to HR when it's delivered well and in unnoticed (until it's gone)

#HRHour

That works. However, think more often than not detailed performance reviews usually only happen annually. When they focus on what has happened over past year + (quickly) conclude with targets for next one. This seems stale, + I know we can do better (+our people deserve more and want it too)
