How to Communicate to HR Punk Rockers

Jun 11

Punk rock HR pro Laurie Ruettimann reacted to my post yesterday about how to write the best PowerPoint headlines:

Dude, I’m over PowerPoint. If you can’t tell me on Twitter, I don’t need to know it.

You have 140 characters to tell your story on Twitter. That includes spaces. Write tight or forget it.

Rock on, Laurie.

  1. Now tell Laurie to take her own advice and shorten her blog entries!

  2. Frank Roche says:

    Laurie, LOL. It would be comical to write 140-character posts for a week. Great piece of advice you gave, though!

  3. Bill Strahan says:

    Laurie’s comment is now hanging on my wall!

    I don’t know if I can limit to twitter but I am working hard to use fewer words and fewer pages.

  5. Frank Roche says:

    That’s the essence right there, Rick. You know this stuff.
