Adventures of Bloom & Wallace

a work in progress

Lawson Software — A Very Sad Ending

Lars Lawson — The Symbol Of All Things Lawson

I first wrote about the HRM enterprise software “Snowdons of Yesteryear” (with apologies to Joseph Heller for this misuse of his famous phrase, “where are the Snowdons of yesteryear” in Catch-22) in the earliest days of this blog (so 11/2009). In that original post, I […]

HRM Software/Services Q1 Vendor Briefings — Capability Matters

HRM May Not Need Battlestar Galactica Capabilities

My first post in this series focused on the importance of understanding the ambitions of HRM software/services vendors and the implications of those ambitions for buyers/investors/employees/the industry. Next came a post focused on the different strategies of these same vendors, the many moving parts that must be […]

Harry’s And Naomi’s Rules To Live By — Part I

Sunset At Bloom & Wallace HQ

After doing one popular post inspired by the artifacts in my office, I thought I’d do another. This one is based on a very yellowed newspaper clipping (yes, they used to come on paper, which yellowed over time and became quite fragile, not unlike electronic files whose formats […]

Reengineering Is Very Much Like Sex

Sex Sells!

For reasons too complicated to explain, even to myself, I’ve been doing a lot of clearing out of the “underbrush” in my office over the last couple of weeks. Some of this was absolutely essential because the physical piles of papers that will never be read, the files of long gone […]

HRM Software/Services Q1 Vendor Briefings — Strategy Matters

Show Me The Money!

In my last post, I wrote about one aspect of the way in which I look at and learn about the HRM software vendors and outsourcing providers with whom I’ve been meeting over the last few months, namely their ambition as businesses. In this post I want to take up […]

Carnac The Magnificent: Unseen Answers To 2011’s Unknown Questions

Carnac the Magnificent

When we lost Johnny Carson, we lost a great entertainer. For thirty years, 1962 to 1992, he dominated late night television, and he did that without insulting our intelligence or our sensibilities. My beloved grandmother, Bubbi Bloom, with whom I lived through much of high school, would get ready for […]

Thomas Wailgum Inspired Post #1 — My Airing Of Grievances

Modeling My Grievances!

I was much inspired by Thomas Wailgum’s post today about how various “tech vendors, CIOs, analysts and other assorted IT types” had let him down in 2010. It’s a great catalogue of bad behavior by people and companies who should know better, and I enjoyed it so much that I […]

The Wallace And Me: A Love Story

Ron and I met when he was a Captain in the US Air Force, stationed at Hanscome Field outside of Boston, and I was the payroll operations and systems manager at Polaroid by day and getting my MBA by night at Boston University. Was it love at first sight? Who remembers? But what I do […]

The Absolute Last Word On #HRTechConf 2010

#HRTechConf 2011

After being prompted that not everyone is following me on Twitter — in fact, that not everyone is on Twitter — I thought I’d better capture my tweets on this topic in a blog post. So, in case you missed this debrief, here were my thoughts as of 10/19/10 via Twitter on […]

Is SHRM Listening?

SHRM — Are You Listening?

Forty years on, and we’re still talking about organizational readiness for strategic HRM (of which talent management is a large piece). Boring! The time for action is long past. SHRM, are you listening?

Why the hell isn’t your critical HRM data (e.g. positions, jobs, KSAOCs, worker, organizational […]
