Guest Article: The Weekly reMix – HR Lite Edition by Melissa Fairman

Not much HR this week.  Shocking I know.  I guess that my insights and interests were other places as some big events happened this week, culminating of course with the anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks today. I’ve never written about that day because my memories of that day are nothing compared to people who lived through it directly or indirectly but it has affected me in other ways that this article sums up appropriately:

 

“But most people my age, we say it’s terrible, we mourn on the day, and we move on. Because we have to. I think it pushes us to be the best we can be, so we can make a difference for the future.”

 

Down the turnpike from me is Shanksville, Pennsylvania where flight 93 crashed.  A few years ago Bill Clinton gave this magnificent speech on the 10th anniversary of the attacks.  Take a listen and scroll on down for the other stuff I read this week:
