New Series - HR Tech for the small business
SteveThe relentlessly bad economic news continued this morning, just a few snippets:
Seemingly no end in sight, major corporations shedding workers like my dog sheds in the summer.
Seems like this could be a bad time for folks in my space, HR Technology to be thinking, writing, and talking about new technology and advocating to folks to convince their organizations to invest in new technology.;)

But actually very strong arguments can be made that times of crisis are EXACTLY when organizations need to ensure that their HR Technology can support their strategy, yes, even if the strategy is 'let go of thousands of people and hope we survive'.
But I'm not going to try to 're-make' that argument here, I am going in a bit of a different direction. I am going to kick off a new series of posts specifically focusing on HR Technology solutions for the small business. I don't know if the small business space is any more healthy than the giants who are hemorrhaging jobs, but since some of the solutions and technologies I am going to highlight are dirt cheap (some even free), I figure they all have a better chance of remaining relevant to the typical small organization than big, expensive, or out of reach talent management or collaboration platforms.
I have not decided how many or which technologies to write about yet, (and actually last week's post about Rypple could be viewed as really the first in this series), but I will write a few technology solution profiles, and let comments and feedback determine how far I go with this.
So, that's my plan, devote some time and energy bringing to light some tools and solutions that are inexpensive, accessible, easy to implement, and possibly beneficial to the small (or medium-sized) organization.
Any suggestions, links to vendors or solutions I should research and write about are really appreciated.
