Really involved in +1s and ERGS. But the virtual life just isn’t it :(

What do you do outside of work?

Outside of work has been busy and enjoyable. I guess where I’m having a tough time is facing the reality that this is just a job. Exchange time for money. Not something you have to enjoy or missing out on the old consulting lifestyle for new grads.

Hi everyone! I’d like to create a simple graphic of our HR operational calendar for my client group. A visually appealing infographic that outlines our annual talent cycles (talent planning, performance reviews, promotion nominations, merit, etc) so leadership always knows what’s coming and can better prepare and strategize. Any ideas on how I can best visually represent this? Any tools, programs or templates you recommend? Thanks!
