What's good about this Community and how can we improve it?

Hello!

It's been a while since I asked such an open question to all of this wonderful community.

- what do you like about the Communities?

- what single thing can we improve?

- what gets your goat (I mean mean 'what', and not 'who')

- are you an 'answer' person? Why? what do you get out of it (and by the way, thank you for doing what you do)

- has the community helped you get stuff done, and make your life easier? 

- has the community helped you grow your network? Is that important to you? Are we friendly and welcoming?

- what would your #1 piece of advice be to those thinking about posting for the first time?

I'm not expecting you to answer these precise questions. They're simply a guide, a prompt... in case you need prompting :)  

I'm very keen to hear from as many of you as possible. 

Big caveat: I can't promise to implement any of your suggestions - you know, technology & resources and stuff. But I will listen. Listen well, and pass on your thoughts. And you never know. 

Feel free to email me directly at s.bridger@cipd.co.uk if you would prefer not to go public. On the other hand, I do encourage you to share your thoughts with your peers, below.

Thanks in advance!

  • Hi all,


    I'm new to this community so perhaps can't speak for what has gone before but, for my two penneth I like the communities.  I moderate for a different, non-HR board so I'm very used to the type of system although I do have a couple of technical quarms.  I would really like to see a 'edit' function, so that you can edit or delete your own posts - particularly on the spelling front, or even if you find a helpful link and would like to post in into the existing post.


    I do agree that it can be immensely frustrating having the same question posed 16 different ways, when one or two threads would suffice.  However, I suppose people think their situation differs from the thread in some way, hence the new thread.


    But, overall, I like being able to read different ways of handling situations - I think it arms you with a good arsenal of potential solutions that you may not have thought of on your own.
