#HREvolution 2010 - the prequel

What should you expect to see from HREvolution 2010?
First of all, much to the dismay of many folks who couldn’t attend this year, you aren’t going to see a lot of tweets until post conference shenanigans begin. Why? Why would attendees deprive the interwebs of all the “quotable quotes” that will be coming out of our sessions?
Because we are going to be engaged in the conference. We are going to talk, share, discuss, and even argue occasionally (all in good fun of course) – but you can’t participate in the conversation and tweet it at the same time. It just doesn’t work. HRevolution is about jumping in and being part of the discussion. So hold your breath and wait for the post-event blog updates… those updates are amazing, and that is where you will find the meat and potatoes of the conversation.
If you are attending you can expect to find yourself somewhat scattered. There will be a main discussion happening in the sessions, but then you will have #secretracks and sidebars that may be just as interesting and informative as what you originally intended to participate in. Be flexible. And be open to who is doing the talking. Contribute! The worse possible thing you can do is sit there and just watch.
The incredible people who have planned, plotted and schemed to make HRevolution 2010 happen expect that we will rip it up, turn it upside down and make it even more wonderful that they thought it could be. That’s what unconferencing is all about. They planted the seed, its our responsibility to make it grow.
Can’t wait to see all the new faces, and reconnect with the old ones.
Let’s rock this thing!
