I was on SHRM's HR Talk for about 10 years (!), so it's nice to see them embracing more current tools for networking. I definitely want to support that effort.

I'm actively involved with the SHRM Connect site, especially your social media group. It's a great platform for us HR pros to network and collaborate on. I do have two small issues with it though: 1. SHRM can do a better job of selling the site. Most of my colleagues do not know it exists except when I point out that I sent them an invitation to connect! 2. SHRM Connect would be more dynamic if it stood outside of the main SHRM website. For example, if you're a member of a local chapter but not the national one, then you can't access the site. In my opinion this doesn't make any sense. This prevents SHRM from engaging the very people that complain that SHRM doesn't speak to the current needs of HR pros. Thanks again for the post!
