I enjoyed speaking to the NC-IPMA on Friday in Atlantic Beach, NC. So who is the NC-IPMA? It is the North Carolina Chapter of the International Public Management Association for Human Resources (IPMA-HR). It s the premier professional association for public sector human resources professionals. HR professionals from all over the state attended. My presentation focused on Searching for the Wizard of Oz – At Work (and at Home).
It was a challenge getting there as the wind was gusting at 50-60 miles per hour and had even toppled a pine tree across Highway 70 near Kinston. There is joke that speakers blow in, blow off, and then blow out. Well, it was the wind that was blowing on Thursday and Friday.
