Too many HR programs are the equivalent of planting a single tulip and then wondering why your neighbors don’t ooh and ahh over your garden.

If you want HR with Impact, plant a thousand tulips. Have a plan, don’t just scatter a few bulbs here and there and hope they turn into something. Concentrate on one color, don’t plant the variety pack.

*************************
Here’s a Top 10 List of gardens I’ve visited in my life that reinforce the point. (Sometimes it’s good to step outside. HR isn’t all about being inside four walls.)

  1. Keukenhof
  2. Chateau de Versailles
  3. Kew Gardens
  4. Chicago Botanic Garden
  5. Longwood Gardens
  6. Singapore Botanic Gardens
  7. San Francisco Botanical Gardens

  10. Denver Botanic Gardens
