An Open Letter to @SHRM 2.0 🧵

I wanted to know how current @SHRM members felt about this. Monday I conducted a Twitter poll (results below) to gauge views on whether members would be upset that non-members could access these resources. 90% said no. #SHRM #coronavirushr

I realize Twitter is an open platform and many of those responses are likely from non @SHRM members so I asked the same question in a #SHRM PHR/SPHR study group.
384 responses. Only 1 would be upset about opening these resources. #CoronavirusHR

Other organizations are stepping up. @PIHRA opened all of their resources for free for 70 days. #SHRM #coronavirushr

Our friends across the pond at @CIPD stepped up and opened all of their resources. "These are exceptional circumstances; we're here to help." They got it right. #SHRM #CoronavirusHR

Other grassroots communities like @HROpenSource @Disrupt_HR @HACKINGHR @PeopleTechPTP #CoronavirusHR are filling the void and curating/creating free resources to help the HR community through this. #SHRM #CoronavirusHR

It's not too late to do the right thing @SHRM. Now is the time for true leadership. The industry needs you and the need goes beyond current members.
Show the field you support all practitioners. Please do the right thing. Every day counts. #SHRM #CoronavirusHR
