Quality of CIPD online discussions

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.

  • As somebody who has never reported in to an HR Director or had any HR colleagues (as a stand-alone HR Manager), I can feel very isolated - it would be nice to be able to have face-to-face discussions with somebody else in HR however this is the next best thing!!.  I find these discussions immensely helpful and informative.  Whenever I need to research an issue this is often the first place I will look. 


    It helps me to know whether I am thinking along the right lines when colleagues post problems and they are discussed, often at great length, by those with a vast amount of knowldge and, more importantly, experience in those areas. 


    I also value greatly the support from colleagues here.  As I said, being in a stand alone position is often very isolating!


    I am certainly not disappointed with the discussions.
