#socialHR events to look forward next week

Social media is the fastest and widest source of learning today. My social world was much limited to Facebook(personal) and LinkedIn(professional) until I started exploring social media as means of learning and connecting with industry peers , which wasn’t very long ago. It was amazing to see the opportunities it provided in terms of learning, sharing,  growth & advancement .
