Everyone says HR’s not your friend, but you’ve never had friends like these HR BESTIES: Leigh Henderson (@hrmanifesto), Jamie Jackson (@humorous_resources and @millennial_misery), and Ashley Herd (@managermethod). Join us in the staff meeting you actually WANT to attend. We have a full agenda and stick to your hard stop. Your HR Besties are here to celebrate your good days, relate on your tough days, and shout from the rooftops that being human at work matters. Pull up a seat to our table - you’re always invited to sit with us. Get ready to mix business and bullsh*t with the HR Besties - your favorite watercooler crew! Visit our website at www.hrbesties.com and follow us on the socials (@hrbestiespod) for sneak peeks and behind-the-scenes fun.
The HR Besties podcast is a refreshing and relatable show that provides valuable insights into the world of HR. As an HR professional, I often feel misunderstood and isolated, but this podcast brings light to the reality of our work and helps me feel seen and validated. With their humor, honesty, and expertise, Leigh, Ashley, and Jamie create an engaging and supportive community for fellow HR professionals. It's like having a group of best friends who understand the challenges and joys of our profession.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is its ability to break down stereotypes about HR. The hosts don't shy away from discussing the difficult aspects of our job or sugarcoat the realities we face. They provide candid stories, advice, and guidance that help us navigate through various workplace situations. Their willingness to speak truthfully about HR adds a level of authenticity that is often lacking in other resources.
Another great aspect of this podcast is the humor infused throughout each episode. The hosts have a fantastic dynamic together and their banter never fails to make me laugh out loud. This lightheartedness not only makes the episodes enjoyable to listen to but also serves as a reminder that even in challenging moments, we can find joy in our work.
However, one potential drawback of the podcast is that it may focus too heavily on inside jokes or references that only HR professionals would understand. While this can be entertaining for those in the field, it might alienate listeners who are not familiar with certain HR terminology or experiences. It would be beneficial if the hosts could provide more context or explanations when discussing specific topics or anecdotes to ensure inclusivity for all listeners.
In conclusion, The HR Besties podcast is a valuable resource for anyone working in HR or interested in learning more about what happens behind the scenes in human resources departments. From providing insight into the daily struggles faced by HR professionals to offering practical advice and heartwarming stories, Leigh, Ashley, and Jamie create a supportive and entertaining space for HR individuals. This podcast is a must-listen for those who want to feel seen, validated, and connected to a community that understands the complexities and joys of our profession.
