Adventures of Bloom & Wallace

a work in progress

In Search Of HRM/HRMDS/HR Tech “Best” Practices: Istanbul To Venice

Venice Lingers In The Mind Like A Love Song

Istanbul was Constantinople, now it’s Istanbul.

Ron and I will be traveling from 4/30 through 5/17/10 from Istanbul to Venice, soaking up “best” practices in HRM, the HRM delivery system and HR technology every step of the way. I’ll be doing some […]

Product Update: PeopleSoft 9.1 Talent Management

I’ve pulled the original post while discussions are underway with Oracle to address their specific concerns about its completeness, correctness and factual basis.

HRM SaaS InFullBloom vs Everything Else: The Musical!

Since my singing finale to last year’s closing keynote at the HR Technology Conference (if you missed it, you missed it because no YouTube versions have popped up — yet), many colleagues have asked me about my next such performance. And no, the picture (that’s me in the foreground) isn’t from HR Tech but […]

Uncle Paul Says “Don’t Blame The Democrats For The Mess We’re In.”

Uncle Paul and Aunt Charlotte Bloom 1999

Have I told you about my Uncle Paul? He’s the last Bloom of my father’s generation, the last link we have to the generation with whose values and collective guidance I was raised. It really does take a village to raise a child, and mine […]

Thinking Is My Job: Blogging Those Thoughts Is Now My Passion

I started my career as a programmer writing payroll applications in machine language to run in 4K memory. Over more years than most women would admit, I’ve focused my career on the application of information technology to HRM in order to achieve breakthroughs in business outcomes. Rather than being satisfied with cheaper payroll operations […]

Reflections Of A Digital Immigrant Gone Semi-Native: The Sad Tale Of Charles Phillips

Yesterday an Oracle story broke big-time, and it wasn’t about Fusion application delivery dates, pricing, or how much work it would take to get from EBS or PeopleSoft HCM to Fusion HCM apps. It also wasn’t about Oracle giving its installed base a break on their maintenance fees or committing to keep most of Sun’s […]

Reflections Of A Digital Immigrant Gone Semi-Native: An Embarrassment Of Riches

As many of you know, I had left shoulder rotator cuff repair surgery on 12/18/09 and have been mostly offline since then except for backlogged blog posts (extensive, probably boring suggestions for “killer” scenarios) and the odd tweet (sometimes very odd as a result of the pain meds I’ve been taking, as sparingly as possible). […]

After 40, It’s Patch, Patch, Patch

Camp Mar-Lin girls circa 1953 — can you spot Naomi?

I can tell you a few things about aging. The best way to express my philosophy of aging is through the words of an unknown writer: Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an […]

Tiger And Me: A Cautionary Tale

He’s not my type, nor am I his, but I’ve met several Tigers in my forty plus years “on the road.” Early days, while I was still in graduate school and single (yes, I really was young once and quite a hotty), he was a Boston Bruin star. I was working full time days as […]

Counting My Blessings: Thanksgiving 2009

Bloom & Wallace, Silicon Valley 1973

For those of you who haven’t started your list, here’s mine for Thanksgiving 2009:

Ron Wallace — if you haven’t met The Wallace, you’re in for a treat. He’s smart (and never flaunts his far greater intellect than mine), beyond funny (especially when doing those imitations […]
