2014 Edition: Do You Know How To Answer These HR Technology Questions?

2014 Edition: Do You Know How To Answer These HR Technology Questions?

By Naomi Bloom on September 9, 2014

[ It’s HR technology conference season, and we’d better get our shit together if we’re going to get the maximum value from our time spent at these conferences.  That means knowing what questions we’re trying to answer before we’re bombarded with vendors telling us that whatever they’re selling is the answer to our not-yet-formulated-clearly questions.  […]

Smart Machines/Robotics — Implications For HRM/HRTech — Where Do I Begin?

Smart Machines/Robotics — Implications For HRM/HRTech — Where Do I Begin?

By Naomi Bloom on February 13, 2014

Hi, I’m Naomi, Your HR Tech SmartyPants Robot Last week I was privileged to deliver a presentation to the top women execs at ADP about the future of HR and HR technology.  Sounds straightforward enough, but it wasn’t.  My presentation wrote itself, and it demanded that I title it: ” A Tale of Two Futures.” […]

InFullBloom’s 4th Anniversary — Where To From Here?

By Naomi Bloom on November 11, 2013

Celebrating Our 2010 Anniversary Over Dinner In The Languedoc-Roussillon, France I launched my blog about 4 years ago, 11-8-2009.  In my wildest dreams, I never expected to attract so many loyal readers nor did I realize how much I would enjoy blogging.  I so wish new readers could start at the beginning because I’ve been writing […]

Do You Know How To Answer These HR Technology Questions?

By Naomi Bloom on October 28, 2013

Carnac the Magnificent [ I published the original version of this post on 9-12-2011, just in time for the 2011 HR Technology Conference, and I did an updated edition for the 2012 conference.  I had planned to do another updated version for the 2013 HR Tech Conference in Las Vegas and the 2013 HR Tech Europe Conference in Amsterdam (which […]

Happy Birthday InFullBloom I launched my blog exactly 3 years ago, 11-8-2009.  In my wildest dreams, I never expected to attract so many loyal readers — there are now 10K+ of you — nor did I realize how much I would enjoy blogging.  So, with a huge shout-out to those of you who have encouraged […]

Impressions From HR Technology Conference 2012

Impressions From HR Technology Conference 2012

By Naomi Bloom on October 18, 2012

I’ve just reread my observations from last year’s conference, and you should too.  If I say so myself, it’s a pretty accurate portrayal of what was happening then, much of which is still happening but which is much farther along, at least in some (but by no means all) vendor products and some end-user organizations.  Rather […]

Reprise In Time For #HRTechConf: Do You Know How To Answer These Questions?

By Naomi Bloom on October 5, 2012

[I posted the original version of this on 9-12-2011, just in time for last year’s HR Technology Conference.  Now here we are again, in frantic last minute preparations, but so wanting to be sure that our conference plans are focused on the important HRM delivery system issues that we’re facing.  So I thought it was […]

Reprise: Legacy HRMS/Legacy Marriage: Sunk Costs Versus Innovation

By Naomi Bloom on August 20, 2012

[I wrote this post in June, 2010, just when Al and Tipper Gore had announced their separation mid-2010, at a time when true SaaS InFullBloom was in its infancy.  I was spending a ton of time with a wide range of vendors, some licensees of my “Starter Kit,” working hard on the next generation of […]

Reprise — The Road From HRM To Business Results Is Littered With Misguided Metrics

Reprise — The Road From HRM To Business Results Is Littered With Misguided Metrics

By Naomi Bloom on March 27, 2012

[I published a post addressing this topic right after I launched my blog 11/9/2009, and I never expected to address this topic again.  Surely by now, I would have thought that we’d have broad agreement on how to measure the impact of HRM on business outcomes.  But I had few readers in the beginning, and there’s […]
