There’s been a ton of great coverage out of Workday’s 2015 Tech Summit, a preliminary list of which I’ve included below and to which I’ll add as others bring their coverage to my attention. But having attended this well-run event and after reading the coverage below and more, I was struck by how little attention […]
#HRTechWorld And #HRTechConf 2015 Attendee Tips
With only one of me while both major HR technology conferences — if you haven’t attended the HR Tech World Congress, you may not realize that it’s become as large and as much of a must attend as the wonderful and separately owned/produced HR Tech Conference & Expo— are scheduled over just 10+ days later […]
InFullBloom’s 4th Anniversary — Where To From Here?
Celebrating Our 2010 Anniversary Over Dinner In The Languedoc-Roussillon, France I launched my blog about 4 years ago, 11-8-2009.

Prepping For A Week In Silicon Valley
San Francisco Bay Area — #EnSW Heaven
I try to spend a week every year in Silicon Valley, meeting with vendors, catching up with colleagues, soaking up the atmosphere and drinking the very special water. On this year’s agenda are Cornerstone OnDemand (with a huge thanks for coming to the Valley), SAP and SuccessFactors, […]
The Scourge of HRM Software — Technical Debt
I spent a very intense week last July in Silicon Valley meeting mostly full days each with Workday, SuccessFactors, Taleo, Saba and SAP, and would like to start this post with a huge and very public thank you to all of these vendors for their time, their preparations, and their hospitality.

Impressions From HR Technology Conference 2011
Ooooogah! Oooooogah! I’m exhausted but energized, if it’s actually possible to be in both states at once.
