I’m very excited to announce the launch of the Renegade HR Facebook Page. On the page, you can get updates on new posts, find and share links to great articles and resources, engage in discussions, and connect with other HR Renegades.

The site isn’t about me – it’s about you. I want the new Facebook page to be member driven. Just found a great article? Post it on the wall! Attended a fun or interesting event? Share your photos with the group. Have a question you need answered or idea you want to bounce off other HR pros? Start a discussion!

The Renegade HR Facebook Page is a place for HR Renegades to connect, share and grow. Join today!
