Before the year ends... one last HR conversation?
POSH gray zones, AI debates, and insights that live beyond the meetup.
Hey there,
Just when your calendars are screaming “year-end reviews, policy updates, and why-is-this-even-a-thing?”
TSOW swoops in with meetups that feel less like work and more a celebration of conversations that mattered, debates that got spicy, and connections that reminded us why HR is truly the heartbeat of every organization.
🎉 December Meetups
December is our grand finale — the ultimate HR celebration before the year wraps. We’re ending 2025 on a high, with meetups that are part knowledge exchange, part community reunion, and all heart.
Expect:
Real-life compliance stories (yes, the “this actually happened” kind)
Thoughtful debates that start politely and end passionately 😄
Insights you can actually use at work
And conversations that make Monday mornings feel… almost exciting
We’re bringing together HR leaders across cities to talk, laugh, disagree respectfully, and leave feeling lighter, wiser, and slightly smug about being in HR.

🚀 This Is Not Just a Meetup Invite
At TSOW, meetups aren’t just events — they’re where industry conversations turn into insight.
Every discussion, debate, and “this is exactly what we’re dealing with” moment feeds directly into our TSOW eBooks. When you attend a meetup, you’re not just participating — you’re contributing to research that reflects how HR actually works today.
Real situations. Honest opinions. Practical outcomes.
Just honest, tactical, Monday-morning-ready frameworks from leaders who’ve built, broken, rebuilt and scaled systems across India, APAC, and the Middle East.
📘 Our eBooks (Built From Real HR Conversations)
We take one major HR challenge every quarter and turn real-world discussions into actionable insights.

HR compliance today goes far beyond policies. It’s about navigating AI in hiring, evolving labor laws, gig work, and remote employment — all at once.
➡️ This ebook captures the most pressing compliance challenges HR teams face today and what’s changing next.
🔥 Q2: Performance Management
Because performance shouldn’t be a once-a-year surprise.
➡️ This edition explores modern performance systems — from continuous feedback and storytelling to AI tools that help reduce bias and improve clarity.
🤖 Q3: Human + AI = The Future of HR
AI in HR isn’t coming — it’s already here.
