Real HR with Ruby Harrison, The HR Uprising's 1000th Member

In this very special edition, Lucinda talks to Ruby Harrison, the 1000th member of the rapidly-growing HR Uprising LinkedIn Group. Ruby is near the beginning of her own journey into the world of HR, and talks to Lucinda today about her pathway into the sector, how collaboration has accelerated her journey, and why she chose to focus on people. KEY TAKEAWAYS HR is a largely collaborative world, in which advice is shared and used to improve business workplaces. It is a sector that grows the more we work together. The HR sector is constantly growing, developing and expanding. The possibilities within the HR world are almost limitless, and provide ample room for personal growth and career progression. Many do not realise the broad scope of pursuits that HR involves. HR manages to be a part of every aspect of the workplace. BEST MOMENTS 'It was not the introduction to HR that I was expecting...'
