Summary: HR Happy Hour - Episode 40 - 'HR on Your Own' Thursday, April 8, 2010 - 8PM ET In a small organization, many HR professionals find themselves flying solo, as the only (or one of a very few) HR people for the entire company. So how do you 'do HR when your are the only one doing HR?' We talk about some of the specific challenges in doing HR for small organizations, with no (or little support), many times in organizations that have never 'had' HR, and with people that often don't think they need the help. We will explore how working in the small business environment challenges you as the HR professional. How is it harder/easier that being a cog in the HR wheel at a big company? Is it better for your overall development? And we will examine some of practical things, like technology, resources, ways to leverage networks and information so that you are not so 'on your own' all the time. Are small companies really where all the action and innovation lives? Join us on the HR Happy Hour and find out.
