It has been a wild journey, and HRevolution 2009 is in the books. What can I say? It was, quite simply, an amazing experience. I’ve read plenty of accounts about HR tweetups and HR unconferences, but nothing quite prepares you for what occurs once you arrive. Wait a minute, you don’t know what an HR unconference is? It’s basically a conference with much less formality and structure. Instead of being governed by rules and overbearing planners, an HR unconference is more free-flowing and open to the whims of the attendees. While HRevolution wasn’t as lax as a normal unconference, it still had a lot of flexibility and fun thrown into the mix. Here’s a quick breakdown of my own timeline surrounding the event. It’s a weird, rambling version of the events, but I have to untangle it all before I can make sense of anything!
