Are you trying to do HR in a toxic work environment? That's haard.You might see that things are not right and see that people aren't being held accountable for awful behaviour. Perhaps you feel a bit trapped in your job and can't switch and yet you don't have the power to really do anything about the problem.At this point, it's probably a long game and my guest has so much great advice. So much.Dr. Kevin Sansberry started in HR as an HR Advisor. Then he worked his way up to being Assistant Vice Chancellor of HR. Then he went off and did his own thing including a TedX presentation, consulting, executive coaching and the Toxic Leadership Podcast. I was delighted by the insight he had into tough HR issues - such as toxicity. You can tell that he has deep experience in HR. This is a fraction of the insight he shared:- As we discussed in a separate video, toxicity is an easy label, but rarely describes actual behaviour.- You are not without power even as an HR advisor.- You can change things, but need to think strategically.- Toxicity has its roots in culture. Focusing on anything else will be a bandaid fix.It was a fantastic discussion. One of the best if you are in HR.Find Kevin on LinkedIn at / kevindsansberry Find his podcast athttps://www.kevraconsulting.comFind Andrea for consulting supporthttps://thehrhub.ca

Sara talks with Seth Eliot Santoro, author, speaker, coach, HR Advisor, Intuitive, about losing your smile and finding it again. They talk about resilience and finding joy. By the time he was thirty-two years old, Seth has already cheated death three times, narrowly escaped two kidnappings, and lost five good friends within a very brief period of time. Being ill-prepared for these events, he searched to find a resource that would help him, to no avail. So, instead, he developed the S.M.I.L.E. method for healing and wrote the first book in a series, “Smile From The Inside!” a book on healing and overcoming trauma in this crazy modern world. Seth then wrote the second book in that series, “From Grief to GRACE,” and developed the G.R.A.C.E. method for healing your past traumas/challenges once and for all. He thought if these concepts could work for him, then they might just work for someone else. He and Sara go over the S.M.I.L.E approach and also his G.R.A.C.E steps. These help people struggling from grief, whether from divorce, loss of a loved one, loss of a job, whatever it may be. They talk about re-framing your mind, re-engaging in the present, finding happiness again, AND creating a better legacy, future, and fulfilling life. Get your notebooks ready!

My guest on this episode is Jess Gray who has recently joined a solicitors as part of their outsourced HR team. However, we cover off so many interesting aspects and situations within this episode. Jess found her way into HR and Training after university and gained her Level 5 CIPD. It was always the plan to do some travelling though so she took a break in her fledgling HR career to go overseas and taught English in Thailand.When she returned home she found it incredibly challenging to secure a new entry level HR job, despite having adequate experience and the qualification under her belt.She then joined an organisation and experienced a reduction in the HR team, a change in leadership, investment and growth of the team once again. Jess explains what it was like working through this turbulence and how the priorities changed for the HR function at various stages.Her next company was an Academy Trust which presented a whole new set of challenges. She was now operating in environments where there had barely been a HR presence before and Jess explains how her much of her work had an emphasis of building and nurturing relationships to get those building blocks in place for her to make an impact.Very recently her career has taken another twist by moving into outsourced HR. Jess shares what it has been like adapting to this version of HR delivery but what she has found inredibly enjoyable about it too.This is a highly fascinating conversation shedding light on some aspects of HR that many wouldn't be aware of. I hope you enjoy listening.Support the Show.
Four years—that's currently how long the typical employee sticks around before looking for new opportunities. But it wasn't always this way and median employee tenure has dropped 10.9% since 2012. The idea of staying with the same company for an entire career is a thing of the past thanks to high-profile layoffs, technological advancements, the rise of the gig economy and a renewed focus on work-life balance. People are starting to question the basic nature of employee loyalty so it makes sense that a new perspective is required.Michael Esau, SAP's Global HR Advisor, joins JD Dillon to explain why organizations must shift their focus from loyalty to advocacy. We'll explore how a strong advocacy program can enhance a company's brand reputation, attract top talent and create a more engaged, dynamic and productive workplace culture—even after employees inevitably leave.Whether you're an HR leader, a manager or simply interested in the future of work, this episode will provide you with actionable insights on harnessing the power of advocacy to transform your employee engagement strategies.Watch the full video of this episode plus past ITKs on the Axonify YouTube Channel.Listen to The Human Factor Podcast from SAP.

Description: Because we spend so much time at work, it is not surprising that we meet romantic partners, and sometimes future spouses, at the office. MRA's Maureen Siwula, HR Advisor, is here to clear up your curiousity and be transparent on everything romantic in the workplace. Key Takeaways: In the top 5 places where you meet your significant other: Work! Every organization, no matter what their purpose is, should have a conflict of interest or business ethics or a relationship policy with guidelines. Tip for employers: Teach, mentor, guide by example, and have solid, clear policies and education for your employees. Don't make assumptions that they know and understand. Tip for employees: Keep yourself very professional, and keep yourself engaged in the work. And if you do meet somebody, do it the right way according to the policies and procedures Resources: Romance in the Workplace Guide Workplace Harassment Toolkit Preventing Workplace Violence Toolkit MRA's 24/7 HR Hotline Let's Connect: Guest Bio - Maureen Siwula Guest LinkedIn Profile - Maureen Siwula Host Bio - Sophie Boler Host LinkedIn Profile - Sophie Boler Transcript: Transcripts are computer generated -- not 100% accurate word-for-word. 00:00:00:02 - 00:00:23:03 Intro Hello hello, everybody, and welcome to 30 minute THRIVE, your go-to podcast for anything and everything HR, powered by MRA - The Management Association. Looking to stay on top of the ever-changing world of HR? MRA has got you covered. We'll be the first to tell you what's hot and what's not. I'm your host, Sophie Boler, and we are so glad you're here. Now it's time to THRIVE. 00:00:23:14 - 00:00:43:18 Sophie Boler Hello everybody. Thanks for taking the time to spend part of your day with us here today. I'm excited to introduce our guests and our topic for today. And it's February, the month of love, so you know what that means. We're going to be talking about romance in the workplace with Maureen's Siwula. She's our HR 00:00:43:19 - 00:01:10:20 Sophie Boler advisor here at MRA. But part of her role is working on our 27/7 HR Hotline. So Maureen has over 40 years of HR experience and has worked in both nonprofit and profit positions in health care, education, service, philanthropy, and manufacturing. So she comes with a ton of HR knowledge and hopefully some workplace romance knowledge too. So I'm excited to talk to you today, Maureen. 00:01:10:20 - 00:01:22:01 Sophie Boler We can dive into the first question. Maureen Siwula Sure, Sophie. Sophie Boler So I've heard that work is quite a popular place to find your significant other. Is this true? I'm curious what you're hearing. 00:01:22:14 - 00:01:44:07 Maureen Siwula That's not only what I hear and see in the workplace, Sophie, but it's also researched. If you institute a study of ways people meet each other, the most popular ways that people see their partners, and in the top five is the workplace. So it's something that's kept me pretty busy in my career is dealing with workplace relationships. 00:01:44:08 - 00:01:52:23 Sophie Boler Absolutely. So I guess I'm curious to know what are some of the challenges of a romantic relationship in the workplace? 00:01:53:09 - 00:02:15:08 Maureen Siwula The challenges are many. The romance is not the challenge because who doesn't love a romance story, right? As long as everything works out well. It's when things go awry, when things get troublesome, when people don't follow policies or rules, or you hear it through the grapevine or rumor mill, or you see something that's inappropriate—that's where things get very challenging. 00:02:15:18 - 00:02:22:12 Maureen Siwula And employers and coworkers can become rather involved in situations that they really don't need to be involved in. 00:02:23:01 - 00:02:34:18 Sophie Boler Just going off of what you just said there, should every business have a policy on workplace romance, or can you really not make any strict rules and relationships? 00:02:35:00 - 00:03:04:20 Maureen Siwula Based on the kind of company you are, you can have strict or less strict rules, but I do think every business, every organization, no matter what your purpose is, should have a conflict of interest or a business ethics or a relationship policy with guidelines. You don't have to be as strict as absolutely no dating whatsoever because that might be just really very limiting for people and you might lose people because of that, but you should have parameters around the how to's and the why to's 00:03:05:05 - 00:03:23:09 Maureen Siwula so there isn't a perception of a conflict. You can understand in the supervisor/employee relationship, if somebody has more power over you in a role and it begins to become a relationship that might look like favoritism or it might be perceived as harassment. So this is where it gets challenging. 00:03:23:22 - 00:03:34:15 Sophie Boler Absolutely. And just talking about your personal experience, have you ever had to deal with a workplace romance as a manager in your career or heard any calls on the hotline? 00:03:35:01 - 00:03:55:21 Maureen Siwula Well, absolutely. Why do we call it the “hotline”? Because we get a lot of information that is from employers that they're dealing with that very challenging. Absolutely. In my 40 years, I've seen everything from things go into sexual harassment, discrimination and seeing people happily ever after marry in the workplace. And we like that last story. Sophie Boler Oh, absolutely. 00:03:55:21 - 00:04:30:17 Maureen Siwula But when employers call us, or when I've been a leader in an organization or challenged, it generally is because somebody is not telling the truth, not being transparent, not following the policy. Example would be—and this really did happen—is the coworkers of an employee started a rumor rising that, I'll call her “Sally,” was dating “Bob,” and they saw them in the tavern after work and then they saw them at work in the car and people were talking and gossiping. 00:04:31:04 - 00:04:56:08 Maureen Siwula And there was a policy about conflicts of interests. And Bob was Sally's supervisor, so there definitely was a conflict. Then all of a sudden, Sally's getting the preferred shifts and she's getting the preferred projects. So what would have been best in that situation is for Bob or Sally to work within management or the human resource department, follow the policy which says you need to disclose any conflicts of interest. 00:04:56:21 - 00:05:07:04 Maureen Siwula And what should have happened in that case is that if they truly wanted to have this relationship that was healthy and good, Sally would have been transferred to a different department. 00:05:07:12 - 00:05:20:18 Sophie Boler For sure. And kind of going along with that, let's say you do have two employees who just began a romantic relationship at work. What are their next steps, or do they go right to HR and tell them? Do they tell their teams about it? What's your advice? 00:05:21:06 - 00:05:45:07 Maureen Siwula Well, my advice is one thing. The practicality of what's really happens sometimes is another. But the best thing to do always is think with intention about this relationship before you engage in it, if you can. You have a job first. You took this job first; meeting somebody at work came second. What's the most important thing is for you to continue your job in a healthy way. 00:05:45:14 - 00:06:10:19 Maureen Siwula So understand the policies, understand the rules, and be in this relationship in an honest way to say we can't go any further with this because the policy says that we have to disclose this to HR. So we need to do that. I can do it alone. You can do it alone. But that's, really need to do that if we're going to be visible with our relationship, and then see what advice is given to you. 00:06:11:05 - 00:06:42:12 Maureen Siwula If it's a consensual, healthy relationship, it doesn't conflict with anything in the business ethics, you're you're good to go ahead. But if there is a conflict, that power struggle once again, harassment or discrimination, or let's say you meet a vendor that comes in and replaces cartridges in the printer or something and you, this is another person. Well, that's also a conflict because the business has a relationship with that vendor for money and you don't want to perceive as being involved in that situation. 00:06:42:20 - 00:06:48:02 Maureen Siwula So it's not just your coworker that this stuff can happen, but it can be people who enter into the business. 00:06:48:10 - 00:06:53:21 Sophie Boler So would you recommend that couple telling their team? 00:06:54:20 - 00:07:21:10 Maureen Siwula No. I have, recommend they tell HR or their manager first. Keep it at a high level and I would keep it relatively professional and private until you do get some advisement. Now, if your company doesn't have a policy, let's say you're pretty small, right? Think about the consequences. Make a policy for yourself. Do you want to be seen as a professional individual contributing to work, or do you want to be seen as that person who dates at work? 00:07:21:10 - 00:07:35:19 Maureen Siwula You want to be seen as a professional. And so even in the absence of policy, check yourself. You know, be sure that you want this relationship, but you also want to keep your job and be very healthy and professional about it. 00:07:36:10 - 00:07:53:01 Sophie Boler Absolutely. So some research that I've seen have shown that office romances are actually frowned upon. So what really should HR be cautious of when one partner's in a higher position at the company, kind of like you mentioned—Sally and Bob. 00:07:53:01 - 00:08:20:06 Maureen Siwula Right. Right. Yeah, some companies do frown upon it and maybe even have a zero-fraternization policy that says there's no dating in the workplace here. And that could be in a situation that is a very confidential product line or something. And employers have the right to make strict policies if it makes sense. You know, you want to be sensible about these things. But most of them have parameters and not the strict policy. 00:08:20:06 - 00:08:31:21 Maureen Siwula There are some companies that absolutely, they're too small and they just can't tolerate what comes as a result of the drama of the workplace relationship. But the parameters are a better way to go. 00:08:32:13 - 00:08:40:08 Sophie Boler And are there concerns on work performance when two people are in a relationship at work? 00:08:40:09 - 00:09:04:04 Maureen Siwula Absolutely. If you get too distracted and you're not contributing and not being that professional contributing individual, maybe you're starting to show some public display of affection. Maybe, you know, there's more times than not. And that's a disciplinary measure whether it's a good relationship or a bad relationship. If you're spending too much time on break with one person, you need to be coached and counseled and redirected. 00:09:04:13 - 00:09:10:01 Maureen Siwula But check yourself—what are you doing to make yourself look good for your employer? 00:09:10:01 - 00:09:17:00 Sophie Boler So how things really change in the workplace when it comes to workplace romance? How has it all evolved? 00:09:18:08 - 00:09:51:17 Maureen Siwula It has evolved immensely, like many things in the workplace have, you know. Sophie, when I started working, I didn't really even have a computer, so and now I have, you know, many of them. So evolution in the workplace is everywhere, particularly on relationships and professionalism. The laws that have evolved around sexual harassment and the education we have had since the #MeToo movement and other things, discrimination makes us much more cautious and careful about how it is that we treat our workplace and our employees. 00:09:52:03 - 00:10:16:01 Maureen Siwula So it starts with an employer. When you hire someone, you need to teach them the rules of the road and you need to set examples. So years and years ago there weren't a lot of policies and procedures in place. And I don't love the policy up for sake of policy, but we all need rules, don't we? We all need some parameters and education, and it starts with the education at orientation. 00:10:16:01 - 00:10:37:11 Maureen Siwula What kind of workplace culture are we? Okay, so I have read—I think it's true—that at Google and Facebook they have a rule about dating. If you ask a person out once and they say, no, you can't ask them again. So that's very strict, right? But that's what their rule is. Others just put it in the conflict of interest. 00:10:37:11 - 00:11:13:04 Maureen Siwula Relationships need to be free of conflict, and then give some examples such as dating a supervisor, having illicit, not illegal but illicit affair, you know, having a unhealthy relationship. So the policies have evolved to support an employer, to teach their employees and hold them accountable to good behavior. So it's through policy development, education, and accountability. So employers need not to be afraid or scared to call somebody into the office to coach them if things are not looking good or feeling good. 00:11:13:22 - 00:11:24:15 Maureen Siwula I don't know about you, Sophie, but if somebody was rumorizing about me that I was dating somebody at work and I truly was not, I would like to know that people are talking about that. 00:11:24:18 - 00:11:25:01 Sophie Boler I would too. 00:11:25:01 - 00:11:39:13 Maureen Siwula Yep. Exactly. And so when we say things that are not true, it hurts people very much so. And so see something, say something is what kind of our culture has become in the workplace, as well as in life. 00:11:39:22 - 00:11:50:07 Sophie Boler So going along with that, you would recommend that an employer should be completely transparent on their workplace relationship policies right at the start? 00:11:50:13 - 00:12:10:12 Maureen Siwula Right at the start. Just like when you get the handbook, and it says something like, you know, you can't sleep on the job or you can't steal from your employer, you can't have an unprofessional, conflicted relationship within the workplace. Makes sense to me. I came here for a job, I didn't come here for a spouse or partner, but that could be a bonus. 00:12:10:17 - 00:12:13:16 Maureen Siwula Absolutely. If I'm doing it according to the rules. 00:12:14:08 - 00:12:21:22 Sophie Boler So should that. should the couple have a plan in case it doesn't work out? Or what happens when it doesn't work out? 00:12:22:10 - 00:12:42:05 Maureen Siwula Well, usually they don't have a plan if it doesn't work out. People want their relationships to work. But again, check yourself, be professional. What is going to happen if we don't tell somebody? What is going to happen if all of a sudden we're fighting at work and before we were dating? Plan B is always, always good to have, right? 00:12:42:13 - 00:13:02:11 Maureen Siwula Plan A is it all works out, but Plan B, it all works out and we still can work together and be decent to each other. So yes, having a backup plan is the same as when your computer crashes. You want to have a backup for that as well. So if this romance crashes, we can survive it, right? Because we're professional contributing employees. 00:13:02:21 - 00:13:33:18 Maureen Siwula We can get through this. However, sometimes intervention needs to occur, and I've had interesting calls on the hotline once again about when a relationship goes bad. Example: factory, two coworkers that relationship not power driven, perfectly somewhat healthy right and they're dating and it's going along fine, it's not bothering anybody at work. Well, Monday they come into work and apparently they had a terrible weekend. 00:13:34:02 - 00:13:49:15 Maureen Siwula They got into a disagreement over the weekend and it continued in the workplace on Monday morning. They punched in next to each other. And before you know it, I'm getting a phone call on the hotline because he took his lunch box and hit her up inside the head. So that's when it could get really bad. 00:13:50:06 - 00:14:08:11 Sophie Boler Yeah, well, you mentioned healthy relationships at workplace, and that didn't seem too healthy. Maureen Siwula It wasn't. Sophie Boler What about when it's not a healthy relationship, and when there may be affairs in the workplace that are seen or talked about—do you have anything to comment on that? 00:14:08:17 - 00:14:54:18 Maureen Siwula Yes, unfortunately, those are really difficult, sensitive issues. And sometimes it starts with a shoulder to lean on with a coworker or your assistant. And maybe you're talking about your marital difficulties and all of a sudden you're in a relationship with this person. Those are not good situations for anyone. And so, once again, if it's being brought forward not by you or the other employee, we're going to get into the rumor mill and we're going to have unnecessary drama, and so in that situation, it's the manager's job and the leader's job to talk to those people about this cannot happen in the workplace. 00:14:55:06 - 00:15:18:00 Maureen Siwula And many times I would refer the employee assistance program, which is a benefit that most employers have. If they don't I strongly encourage it because they can seek counsel or help for the situation. The person who is having marital difficulties should be seeking a doctor's advice or a therapist's advice, not your coworker. It's just not the right place or time for those things. 00:15:18:07 - 00:15:30:10 Maureen Siwula So lots of coaching. Compassion is really important in those situations, but firmness too. I mean, if people don't want to listen to you and don't want to stop, the next action is discipline and maybe even separation. 00:15:30:13 - 00:15:33:12 Sophie Boler Yeah, it's a tough topic, but it's real. 00:15:33:12 - 00:15:34:01 Maureen Siwula Very real. 00:15:34:02 - 00:15:43:12 Sophie Boler Yeah. So as we do wrap up today, do you have any last thoughts or pieces of advice you can share with our listeners? 00:15:43:12 - 00:16:07:20 Maureen Siwula Advice number one for the employees: Keep yourself very professional, keep yourself engaged in the work. And if you do meet somebody, do it the right way according to the policies and procedures. Don't cause drama for yourself or for your employer. It's not necessary. You can have romance in the workplace, but not always and not under all conditions. 00:16:08:18 - 00:16:35:13 Maureen Siwula And then for employers: Teach, mentor, guide by example, have solid, clear policies and education for your employees. Don't make assumptions that they know and understand. Don't make the assumption that every employee walks into your organization knowing your rules because your rules, look at Google. I would never think I'd have a rule like that in my workplace, but I understand and respect why they do that. 00:16:36:05 - 00:17:00:18 Maureen Siwula I wouldn't walk in there assuming that that's what the rule is. We have to know and understand what our employers expect of us. And always deal with people, you know, in a compassionate, understanding way and fair and reasonable. I think the days of top-down punitive management don't work, understanding people where they're at and getting them to a place that they need to be. 00:17:01:06 - 00:17:11:23 Sophie Boler Those are all great points. So I thank you for being on 30 minute THRIVE today and really sharing your knowledge, expertise, advice on romance in the workplace. Fun topic. 00:17:12:00 - 00:17:15:01 Maureen Siwula It was!

Ruth Bentley HR Advisor and Mum of Two Part 2: This episode we talk about how she developed her confidence and fitness by learning to put herself first, including surrounding herself with the right people and right support. For many people - and many women - putting yourself first sounds simple, but rarely is, not just from a practical point of view. Even when you're providing the support and foundation for many other people in your life, giving yourself permission to look after yourself, especially in terms of health, can be a significant challenge. Ruth talks through how she went from being at the bottom of the proverbial pile to climbing back on top again. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ufitradio/message

Sitting down with special guest Meredith Griffin Connect with your employees - most wines are blends meaning winemakers are pulling the strengths from different wines or different vineyards to create a perfect bottle. It's similar to a successful team; when you are building that dynamite team are you going to focus on the team's weaknesses or would you rather focus on the team's strengths? Focusing on the individual strengths of someone and blending that in with someone who has a different set of strengths creates a ripple effect allowing the team to lean on each other's strengths to make each other better - which in the long run makes for a well-blended team.

Talent acquisition is hard: you get overwhelmed with tons of notifications, open hundreds of Chrome tabs, send dozen of outreach messages. And sometimes get no reply at the end of the day. That candidate who was sure a sure hire suddenly declines the job offer. You lose purpose. A purpose and intrinsic motivation are so important in recruiting - much more than targets and metrics. That's why a lot of Talent Acquisition Managers wonder: “how can I inspire my team, give them an inner sense of purpose, so they always stay positive and go the extra mile for the candidate and the team?” That's why we tried to answer this question with Mawulom Nenonene in this episode. We also talked about some other broader topics. Here are some points we discussed: 1/ Why recruiters should first aim to become strategic advisors to the hiring managers. 2/ When should you split between full-cycle recruiters and sources? 3/ What are the activity standards in recruiting teams? 4/ Why recruiters should do a 6 month-checking after the person was hired Don't hesitate to follow Mawulom, by clicking here.

Welcome to a new series of Realising Your Potential. Every week Anj speaks to inspiring women about their leadership journeys, the challenges they've faced and the lessons they've learnt. Together they explore what organisations can do to drive gender equality and how we can all realise our potential.

Carys worked as an intern while in her final year of university and has recently joined the Accolade team on a part-time basis as her studies wrap up. In this episode both Anj and Carys take turns to ask each other questions and cover a range of topics from dealing with confidence, to making mistakes, gender pay gaps and the term ‘girl boss'. We believe in the power of conversation and gaining new ways of thinking that inspire, educate and empower you to Realise Your Potential.

I'm absolutely thrilled to have Scott Simpson as my guest this week. I've known Scott around 12 months after we connected and I supported his move from Contact Centre Team Manager to HR Advisor. We said at the time that I'd have him as a guest one day so it's fantastic that we've been able to get this accomplished now he is 8 months into a HR Advisor position.Scott's story isn't just useful for anyone who has worked in an operational role and wants to learn how to make that transition to HR. His whole methodology regarding the pursuit of his dream job is a perfect case study for anyone who is going to embark on the search for a new job.Scott forensically amended his CV to ensure it was the best document it could be to ensure his applications became more successful. He utilised LinkedIn, built up his network and engaged with his contacts to raise his profile and seek advice. He learnt from the HR team where he was employed and constantly asked questions to develop his knowledge. He joined his local CIPD branch and became a CIPD Ambassador, again building his network. He connected with recruiters, HR Directors, Consultants, anyone who he felt could offer value to his ambition of securing a HR job.Ultimately the prize at the end of all this was that Scott landed his dream job. He didn't need to take a salary drop and start from an entry level role. His hard work, dedication, and commitment ensured he achieved his goal.... and he fully deserved it!I hope you all enjoy listening to this episode as it's a cracker!

No time like the present to consider how your business should look physically - as in office or out - and logistically in the context of a rapidly changing market environment.

Today's guest is Emily Bretnall and what a fun episode this one is. Emily currently works as a HR Advisor for a company within the nuclear industry. I suspect her story will resonate with a lot of listeners. She's someone who wasn't sure which direction her life should go when she was young. She toyed with the idea of going into beauty, maybe working on the cruise ships. Even during university she was still feeling a bit lost. However, an internship with a really bad employer planted a seed which led her into HR.Emily explains that by finding her vocation in her mid-twenties actually drove her to accelerate her career as best she could. Within two years of her first HR Assistant role she had managed to get promoted to HR Advisor. And last year she won the NSAN Business Apprentice of the Year!We had such a good time during this recording so I hope you all enjoy listening.Support the show

This week's guest is Oliver Hill who is currently working as a HR Business Partner at Solent University in Southampton. Ollie was originally working in a kind of graduate management programme at Waitrose and then leveraged on the transferable skills he'd learned when he moved into HR.Ollie talks about how he managed to make the transition from a HR Advisor to HR Business Partner and what it's actually like to work as a HRBP. He also speaks about moving to a bigger organisation because he knew there would be better opportunities for him to fulfil his own personal ambitions, and speaks passionately about working for an organisation that stood for something positive and helped people.Ollie was an absolute pleasure to talk to so I hope you all enjoy listening.Support the show

The guest on this episode is Jade Breakell (Greenwood).I've known Jade for a couple of years and she kindly offered to come on and share her story as her career hasn't been the easiest of paths to date. As Jade discusses in the show, some people seem to leap from role to role and their careers progress somewhat effortlessly. Others, in Jade's words, take a more scenic route.Jade entered the job market without a clue as to what she wanted to do, or what was even out there for her to do. She started out as an Administrator before becoming interested in HR but had to work hard to make that transition. She has made huge sacrifices to get to where she has and she was kind enough to talk openly and candidly about how tough it has been to build a career, whilst being a mum of two and having to study her CIPD on top of it all to reach her goals.It was an absolute pleasure talking with Jade so I hope you enjoy listening.Support the show
On this episode we have Annabel Bass who is someone that made the transition from Recruitment Consultant to HR Advisor. I've spoken with lots of people over the years who are in recruitment but don't enjoy the sales and want to know how they can leverage on the skills they have to move into HR. Therefore, I hope Annabel's story will be a useful one to listen to.Annabel was a Psychology graduate who had planned on getting into HR straight after university but was unsuccessful in securing a role on a graduate scheme. However, she tactically applied for alternative recruitment-orientated roles that would help her but, after a few years, felt she'd left it too long before making the transition. A chance opportunity presenting itself combined with her being vocal about her desire to get into HR meant that she ultimately made that leap.We also chew the fat a bit on the recruitment industry itself but to be honest, we could have probably done a whole podcast altogether on us talking about that topic itself. Maybe one for another day, eh?Support the show

On this episode of the podcast my guest is Charlotte Humphries. The reason for asking Charlotte to join me is that earlier this year she made the transition from HR Assistant to HR Advisor. However, we can then throw into the mix the fact that she started her new role, which was with a new company, only a week before lockdown occurred.Charlotte shares with us not only her story of how she made that step up to Advisor but what the past six months have been like for someone adapting to a new role whilst doing so from their kitchen table. It certainly makes for a really interesting situation so I hope you enjoy listening.Support the show
On this episode we have Amisha Parmar. Amisha and I met last year when she was looking to change her career and move from teaching to HR. I was able to give her some advice and guidance and we worked on her CV to ensure it helped her make that transition. It's been great to watch how she has developed and progressed over the past year and successfully become a HR Advisor. The story of how she made that transition, was pragmatic in her expectations, but how she worked proactively to make this happen is a really valuable insight for anyone else who is looking to make that career change. Hearing how she built up her LinkedIn network, engaged with recruitment agencies and worked on the front foot to make things happen is inspiring.I hope you enjoy the listen!Support the show

The aesthetic industry is rapidly growing in terms of patient awareness and practice growth. To keep up with this demand, physicians are expanding their practices with new procedures and increased staffing. However, these changes are causing many oversights in terms of employee management and can leave a physician vulnerable to unnecessary labor law issues and employee lawsuits. This interview with Kurt Tullar, a lead attorney and HR Advisor at CEDR HR Solutions, the nation's leader in HR support and Employee Handbook design, discusses the top problem causing employee issues in an aesthetic practice and how to fix them.

According to experts, the Department of Labor in the United States is taking a closer look at how the medical industry conducts itself in terms of employment and staffing. Aesthetic Insider™ has written recently on ways aesthetic surgeons can protect themselves and their practice in a variety of ways when it comes to labor law. One area that has not been discussed, however, is how liable is a doctor when it comes to an employee's actions outside of the practice. While we all hope that employees conduct themselves with absolute integrity off-premises, there is no sure fire way of knowing until it's too late. This interview with Kurt Tullar, a lead attorney and HR Advisor at CEDR HR Solutions, the nation's leader in HR support and Employee Handbook design, discusses the importance of clear practice policies.
