@doublempeacock @AHS_media MP, healing to you and your knee/leg/foot. You will learn a new version of patience. Be well my friend.

Don’t think that this is what is meant by Summer “break.” Oops! ! Grateful to the many team members @AHS_media for the tremendous care.

@Jon_Thurmond A8. Thank you, @Jon_Thurmond and @wyndall93 for building this community of support and encouragement. Thanks for the many memories and best wishes to both of you as you craft your “next”. #HRSocialHour. @christie_engler you have some big shoes to fill.

LAST CALL! Q8. Please give us your best parting advice. #HRSocialHour

A6. Mental health, changes in DEIB, supporting working caregivers, what can be done to improve internal communications, the return to office “mandate” and employees saying no thanks. #HRSocialHour

@murtaughj @Jon_Thurmond Keep me on re-dial @murtaughj

Q3. What’s been your favorite #HRSocialHour chat topic or one you learned the most from?

@Jon_Thurmond @christie_engler A6. Stay Interviews, Professional Development Successes, Forecasting for 2024. #HRSocialHour

Q6. What topics do you think @christie_engler should be talking about in the coming months? #HRSocialHour

@Jon_Thurmond A5. Wendy will continue crafting ice cream combos that intrigue us and Jon will enjoy some important Jon time. #HRSocialHour Thank you both for your commitment!

Q5. What do you think Jon and Wendy will be doing now that they don’t have a chat every few weeks (serious or funny answers, your choice)? #HRSocialHour

@Jon_Thurmond @DebraISchafer @wyndall93 @christie_engler Indeed Jon, huge "thank you" to @christie_engler for agreeing to take the lead & for ensuring that your legacy continues. #HRSocialHour

@doublempeacock @DebraISchafer @wyndall93 @christie_engler Thanks Melanie. Yes, Debra, Wendy & I are calling it a day after 108 of these but very thankful that Christie will be leading the #HRSocialHour charge moving forward.

@Jon_Thurmond @GreggSchigiel A4. On site in Vegas in 2019. We were “live” for #HRSocialHour.

Q4. If you’ve met Jon and/or Wendy in person, what’s your favorite memory of them? #HRSocialHour (art credit to @GreggSchigiel)

@christie_engler @Jon_Thurmond So true Christie. Always great to learn from other's perspectives & experiences. #HRSocialHour

@mjmullady We certainly appreciate @MKaylorTweets for her support when we got this thing going, I've still only ever gotten nervous guest hosting #Nextchat... #HRSocialHour

Q1. What's in your glass? #HRSocialHour

Look at those faces and the tie-dye uniforms! #HRSocialHour

Q2. Do you remember the first time you joined the chat? How did you find out about it? #HRSocialHour
