However, this is my opportunity to explore the list and learn from them. :-) To tell you the truth I have no idea of the top influencers you have mentioned here.

Unfortunately what is also not public to many is that there was only about 20% of individuals who are on this list who are actually practicing H.R.. So, does this mean that because I know H.R law that I can influence a number of lawyers at a convention next week? Kevin,

That really means a lot to me. It's funny, no matter how many articles we write, no matter how many words we've kicked out over the years, there still is that funny feeling when you hit Publish that it's going into the ether. It could be read...or ignored. Back at you, my friend. Critical thinking is a rare commodity in the blogging world. You have that down bigtime. Thanks!

I echo everyone on this list. All awesome blogs. Here are a few more. - Kerry @ Cluewagon. She's quitting, but she influenced my writing. I'll miss her. http://www.cluewagon.com - HR Lori is always so smart -- and I don't live in California, either, but she's on my list. http://hrlori.com/ - Mike Haberman keeps me grounded in the true work that HR does... http://omegahrsolutions.blogspot.com/ - Whenever I get snarky and pissy, I always ask myself, "What would Tracy do?" Seriously, he's a kind and thoughtful presence in our industry. http://thispersonstinks.wordpress.com/ - Kelly Mitton inspires me to be brave. http://thryving.com/ So many good people on this list of lists.

When it comes to influence, you are the one I look to for keen and innovative ideas. The list you mentioned above includes people I respect, admire and follow. Thanks for making me want to be a better blogger. Being a relatively new blogger, you gave me confidence to stick my toes in the water and get started. Thanks for being such a great guy. Happy Holidays. @HRMargo Margo Rose http://HRMargo.com Lance, this is why I quoted you in my blog post yesterday. When it comes to influence, you are the one I look to for keen and innovative ideas.
