Quality of CIPD online discussions

Amanda Claire Baldwin

This is my first foray into the mist of CIPD online discussions and I have to admit to being a bit disappointed with the quality of some discussion for debate. 

Not to say that the items listed are not relevant but I think it would be better to have an 'advice section' for those individuals who have simple questions about practice to be answered? 

Then the space for discussions can be recogised and valued more as one where real debate will occur.

  • I've come to this discussion a bit late thanks to a busy few days but I have to say, Megan sums it up for me!  These Communities are a cross section of HR life and I think they give us a great overview of HR across the UK.


    One thing I've observed is that it's the Q & A type questions that tend to get the most answers - the ones prompting debate seem to get far fewer answers, such as the ones in the Strategic HR area, and seem to be read by far fewer people.  I think this tells us a little bit about what most people want from the forums!  Maybe we should ask ourselves why people don't respond to these debate type questions and see how we can reframe our posts to encourage that debate?  Admittedly my one attempt at provoking a debate (the infamou sacking by text thread *grin*) didn't provoke the kind of debate I'd hoped for as most people couldn't see past the provocative title to the content!


    These Communities are dynamic and evolve based on what we, the contributors, put into them - if we want more debate, lets try and get more debates going and make them the type of debates people want to respond to.
