Ruth George, HR Consultant and Herts CIPD Chair, talks about the challenges HR can pose for a SME, the importance of offering flexibility to employees and why small businesses can't afford to miss the AI boat.Ruth is a Chartered Member of the CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development) with over 25 years' experience in senior HR management roles.  Previously HR Director at Gallagher Heath - a leading UK insurance broker in the City, she has also been HR lead for Head Office at Homebase and has worked with household names such as Next, Fujitsu, Seiko and Travelport.  Ruth is Chair of the CIPD branch in Hertfordshire with over 3,500 members one of the largest branches in the country – the CIPD is the professional body for HR Practitioners.Ruth has a degree in Modern Languages and speaks fluent French, Spanish and Portuguese.  Having spent the past 11 years running her own HR Consultancy, she now focuses on providing a range of generalist HR support to both corporates and SME clients.  A large part of Ruth's work concentrates on management and leadership development and she has run several programmes for international clients both virtually and face-to-face.

My guest for this episode is Steven Ingram who worked for the bulk of his HR career doing consultancy before launching his own business, Neurodiversity Together, in the summer of 2023.Steven has ADHD, autism, and a stammer. What I absolutely love about him and what you'll realise from this conversation is that he approaches discussions on neurodiverity in a different way. It's a more holistic and inclusive way for all concerned rather than focussing simply on any singular individual.Having gone straight into the world of HR Consultancy from university he lifts the lid on that world as I think, for many, it's not a pathway that is considered at the entry level. However, Steven explains how, like in any role, you learn from those around you until you have the tools and knowledge to take on further responsibility so there's absolutely no barriers of entry for those starting off in their careers.Steven explains why he ultimately set up his own business and we learn how his approach to supporting individuals and organisations regarding neurodiversity puts just as much onus on the person as it does any adjustments that need to be made to assist them.I find Steven such a refreshing and insightful individual and talking to him raises many lightbulb and 'a-ha' moments. I'm sure you'll enjoy this and gets lots of 'a-ha' moments for yourself too.Support the show

This is a landmark episode as it's our 100th!!Therefore a landmark episode requires a guest of equal stature and I'm delighted to be joined by Annette Andrews.Annette has an incredibly fascinating career story to share. From growing up and moving countries ( and schools) reguarly due to her Dad's job, she strongly considered joining the Army but a significant sporting injury meant that was no longer an option.Unsure of what she then wanted to do with her life, some summer work at a local hospital put her under the tutelage of the HR Director. He encouraged Annette to apply for HR graduate schemes which led to her joining Ford  where she stayed for the next 18 years, gaining an MBA along the way.She then joined Lloyds Bank right before the global financial crash in 2008 and was on the actual trading floor the day the markets crashed. This led to supporting the huge transition project of bringing together Lloyds and Bank of Scotland as one new banking group.Annette moved to the US in a Head of HR role for Lloyds but she explains how various things going on in her personal life meant she needed something different from her career during this period and a role that demanded less from her. This is common to so many during their careers and it's encouraging to hear someone with such a stellar career recognise that there may be a time when we need to take our foot of the gas for a while and seek out something more condusive with our personal lives.Then when she was ready to tackle a larger role and a big challenge once again she moved to Lloyds of London as Chief People Officer.Annette now has a portfolio career doing HR Consultancy, Coaching, working as a Non-Exec Director, and doing Speaking events.This is an incredible episode that covers so much, especially about how Annette has pulled on the experiences throughout her life to aid her career but how life also impacts the decisions we make at times too.I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Support the show

Neil Mackinnon describes himself as a curious human, and his curiosity has guided him throughout a remarkable career in which he has been immersed in creative projects, surrounded by creative people, and focussed on creative potential.Crucially, he has also spent a great deal of his life listening and being truly present to what has occurred around him, and these qualities aided a sense of catharsis and newfound aliveness when he first experienced coaching.Neil is one of the new hosts of The Coach's Journey Podcast, and in this episode he gets to the heart of why coaching has become such a prominent focus of a life in which he has worked as a professional musician, a creative producer for Europe's largest centre for the arts, and now as a faculty member at the Academy of Executive Coaching.He explains how skilful coaches helped him access the power and potential of coaching to overcome profound challenges in his work, and how coaching appealed to his sense of adventure and his disposition as a man fascinated by all industries, all people, and all walks of life.

Then come tell me about being soft.'”BIOGRAPHY FROM NEILNeil is a London-based leadership and executive coach, accredited by the International Coaching Federation and the European Mentoring and Coaching Council.

During his time there he discovered coaching through a transformational experience of working with a coach. This sparked a journey of discovery that led to his initial coach training and building coaching skills into his style of leadership.He now splits his time between his private coaching practice and a part time faculty position at the Academy of Executive Coaching, a leading global coaching organisation offering executive coach training, coaching solutions, executive coaching certification.

My guest this episode is Natalie Ellis who is the founder of Rebox HR, a multi-award winning HR Consultancy business based in Daventry, Northhamptonshire.Natalie has spent over 17 years in the world of HR, working her way through the corporate world before deciding to start her own business in 2020.Originally starting her career in the travel industry, Natalie believes it was those lessons she learnt about tailoring the service to the needs of each customer that gave her the foundations for how her business operates so successfully.Although Natalie is essentially an outsourced service provider, there are lessons in how she partners with each customer. She wants to learn and understand the intricacies of their culture, identity, and ways of working. The same approach can be applied for internal HR teams as your 'customers' are the internal stakeholders you support so it's about understanding their needs and adapting your delivery accoridngly to achieve the best results.Natalie's first HR role was with Woolworths during the period they went into administration, and she explains what a baptism of fire it was to the world of HR going through such a process. She then joined a little start-up called ASOS to set up their HR function.A couple of years ago, right before launching the business, Natalie suffered with a breakdown due to burning herself out. She is very open and honest about this period of her life and is a huge advocate for HR for HR to try and ensure others don't succumb to what she endoured.On top of all this we also address the question "Is it the responsibility of HR to change the way they are perceived in businesses?"Natalie has been there, done it, and got the t-shirt through her career and this is a great conversation covering so many of the burning topics in HR right now.I hope you enjoy listening.Support the show

My guest for this episode is Alison Allen who, following a successful career in internal HR, set up her own HR Consultancy in March 2023.Alison's real passion through her career has been about developing people, so as well as providing generalist HR support to her clients, she also works as a coach and a mentor, an Insights practitioner, she is a trained and accredited mediator, and offers bespoke line management development programmes. Not wanting to stop at just that, Alison is also a qualified Menopause Workplace Trainer.Originally intending to be a Teacher, Alison realised that wasn't for her and embarked upon a period in L&D before moving into generalist HR. Her first HR role was a standalone position for a multi-site, national business and we discuss how you succeed in a role despite never having worked in it before and, therefore, with very limited knowledge and expertise. She then moved her career forward with a mindset of plugging the gaps in her own skills base to ensure she had as complete a tool kit as she possibly could.There's a pattern within Alison's journey of going back to former employer's but in a new role that aligns with her own wants, needs, and development goals and we discuss how and why sometimes you need to leave a company if opportunities aren't available but why there's also no reason you can't return in the future if circumstances change.When she decided to go self-employed, Alison knew that she wanted to become a specialist in menopause awareness and we talk through why this is such a critical topic. 75% of people going through the menopause have symptoms and, of those, 1 in 4 has serious symptoms. 100 years ago the average age of menopause was 57 and your life expectancy age was 59. Whereas now menopause typically occurs between the ages of 45-55 and average life expectancy is 83. Therefore, where is now appears in life is with women who are in the prime of their careers and often in influential and significant roles. 25% of women are considering leaving their employers due to lack of support and this is why it's so important we recognise the impact the menopause can have and employers do all they can to help.There are so many wonderful aspects we cover in this conversation beyond the menopause but this is certainly a hot topic that needs more awareness and education around so I hope you enjoy listening.Support the show

In this episode of the HRchat podcast, we consider the employee experience and ask: Are we getting worse at communicating? Bill's guest this time is Yuri Kruman, Chief Executive Officer / Head of Remote at HR, Talent & Systems, a full-service HR Consultancy, focused on building out robust HR functions for fast-growth companies.Yuri is a sought-after speaker and expert on HR, Digital Transformation, and Employee Experience (EX).Questions For Yuri Include: How did you end up in HR after 5 other unrelated careers?In an article on LinkedIn, you write: "Basically, humans, especially men, f-ing suck at communication. We have a million channels for communication - you know, WhatsApp, Facetime, Messenger, face-to-face, FB, Slack, email, carrier pigeon. But our actual communication is poor and getting poorer". What did you mean by this, why do you feel men are particularly bad at communicating? How can poor communication manifest in the workplace? What are the negative consequences on the employee experience and what can be done to improve things?In another post called '5 Ways Transactional Thinking Is Robbing You Blind -- and How to Stop It NOW', you say "The trouble is, most of really don't get how this transactional, tactical short-sighted thinking has become a self-fulfilling prophecy, with 4-second attention spans, insanely short news cycles and blazing fast internet and mobile data speeds driving us (crazy), anxious and inattentive." Transactional thinking, you suggest, blinds us to what unites us, while exacerbating what separates us, makes us more easily manipulated, takes away our hope and makes us depressed, and causes us more to be more dependent on technology and less dependent on our own sense of right and wrong, and truth and lies. Why do we think transactionally and how can we adjust our mindsets? What compelled you to write your latest book series, Be Your Own Commander-in-Chief?More About YuriYuri is a member of the Fast Company Executive Board, Newsweek Expert Forum and Forbes Coaches Council, as well as a contributor to Fast Company, Forbes, Entrepreneur, Newsweek, Business.com, Influencive and a number of other top platforms.

Have you ever wondered what the mindset or approach is needed to become a HR leader? Well then what an episode we have this week, where I'm joined by Michele Haugh.Having done a business degree at university, Michele decided that a HR career path was for her but upon entering the job market found she had no practical experience. What Michele then did was strategically map out a route via recruitment, then training, that ultimately led to her fulfilling her career goals.Michele has tackled numerous relocations, due to her husband's job, and taking an extended career break whilst living in Thailand and raising their children. However, she has applied a key fundamental in her HR approach that has enabled her to reach the top of her game. It's the understanding that to be truly effective, you need to adopt a complete business partnering methodology. This means that you get to understand the business and it's issues first then look at the HR initiatives and strategies you can implement to add the maximum value. A simple concept, yet not one applied by everyone. Michele now runs a HR Consultancy, along with her business partner, where they provide HR support and Engagement initiatives to early or growth stage businesses.Listening to Michele talk, it's easy to understand how she has created such a successful HR career and there are some great takeaways and advice she delivers during our talk.I hope you enjoy listening.earlyHRSolutions - https://www.earlyhrsolutions.com/earlyEngage - https://www.earlyengage.com/Support the show

This is part 2, make sure you also listen to https://authenticleadershipforeverydaypeople.com/podcast/kurt-landon-human-capital-entrepreneur/ (part one of the interview).

[17:06] – There are two types of HR professionals, the ones who love recruiting and hiring people and the ones that want to have nothing to do with it.

I was absolutely thrilled to have Wayne Singleton join me on this week's episode of the podcast.Wayne and I have been aware of each other for a few years but hadn't actually spoken until recently. I knew of him as a HR Consultant who did interim work but over the past few months so a variety of posts on LinkedIn promoting some of the other work activities he does. When we chatted and I learnt more about his situation I knew I had to get him on here as a guest.Wayne has had an amazing HR career working for some monolithic organisations such as BAE and Siemens, and we discuss various insights he learned from working in these types of companies. However, following a redundancy Wayne took some inspiration from a friend who said you should try and do what you love as often as you can. This resonated with Wayne and, combined with his Dad suffering a stroke, made him want to do more outdoor and endurance events and really embrace life doing what he really wanted. From that point onwards he has combined HR Consultancy and Freelancing with his other passions to have what he describes as a 'portfolio career' - basically doing lots of different things.For me, Wayne's story and journey is an absolute beacon for anyone who wants more out of life than the usual 9-5. He has been able to leverage on his HR career to secure various interim and consultancy work, which primarily pays the bills, whilst using the rest of his time to follow his heart and do things that put a smile on his face.I cannot state how enjoyable it was speaking with Wayne. I absolutely believe that anyone, not matter their vocation, could take some inspiration from this episode so I hope you enjoy it.Support the show

Sarah Hamilton-Gill created the formula for her company, Leap Into HR Consulting, based on 28 years of consulting experience, and over three decades supporting start ups and SME's to grow. In the past two years, Sarah and her team have supported over 100 new start up consultants during the pandemic. Sarah joins Lucinda on this episode to discuss the ways in which you can make the leap yourself into the world of HR consulting. KEY TAKEAWAYS Before the pandemic, the world of remote working was still being stress-tested and not seen as a viable way of working. Now that most people work remotely, it has opened up the world of consultancy, which can be seamlessly operated from anywhere. Employee relations are now at the forefront of most corporate conversations, and the proliferation of quality, remotely available HR advice means that the HR sector has never been hotter. In order to get started as a consultant, focus upon the things you are truly good at, and the areas in which you excel. Stay in your comfort zone to start with, and gently branch out into other areas. Clarity is essential. You need to work out your ideal life/work balance, as well as your areas of expertise. Also, you must gain clarity on your proposed pricing model. BEST MOMENTS 'There's a fantastic opportunity right now to go into consulting.

It soon became clear to her that without the support and flexibility she got from being a business owner that she would have missed much of her boys growing up. Sarah was just 28 when she decided to go it alone and set up her HR Consultancy business in 1992. Her parents were not happy with her choice to leave the corporate life but today, having successfully built a 7-figure business and two 6-figure businesses, it's obvious she made the right decision. Sarah started working with smaller companies then, as her business evolved, moved onto bigger names. Organisations Sarah has worked with include BT, Vodafone, Santander and the English Football Association. She has gained awards including being a Finalist in the CIPD Best HR Consultancy (2018), Influential Small Business Owner winner (2018), HR Consultancy of the year (2020) Business and Industry Today and finalist for the Reinvention Award (2020). This year Sarah was Winner of an Award from BreatheHR mad also nominated for a Woman In Business Award as well. On 5th November 2020 Sarah self-published her book, Leap into HR Consulting - How to move successfully from Corporate to Consulting which has not only topped the business books list on Amazon but was also a finalist in the Business Book Awards 2021. It's available at all good book shops and Amazon worldwide as an eBook, Audible and paperback. “If I can do it, you can do it too!"

Happy New Year and welcome to 2022!I'm absolutely thrilled for the first episode of this new year to be joined by Philippa Lucarz who is HR Director at Myerscough College in Lancashire. Philippa started her working life via an apprenticeship before deciding upon a career in HR after speaking with family members who were in the profession. She has spent a large chunk of her career in the public sector, but also took the bold move to run her own HR Consultancy business for a year, before returning to employment in a Head of HR role for an organisation in the private sector. We discuss working in local authorities and the stigma that can be associated with people who have spent time in this sector. We also debate what it can be like running your own business and the challenges people might not be aware of when thinking of pursuing such a route.However, the cherry on top within this episode is listening to Philippa explain how she developed as a HR professional. She identified the need to constantly develop her own learning and awareness of the most current HR theories in order to best be able to influence business leaders and add the most value. I honestly believe that this is an episode that could help shape the thinking of almost all HR practitioners out there so I really hope you enjoy our discussion.Support the show

The future is inclusive. And to build that, we need the present to consider it. How many of us have a person from the queer community as colleagues? Maybe the media sector has more people as it is comparatively quite inclusive but then again policies rarely include them. Introducing a third check box in the gender section is not enough, and just having a PR exercise or rainbow-ing the logos in Pride month is just show-off. To talk about all this and more, we had Sonica Aron, Managing Partner at Marching Sheep- an HR Consultancy that helps businesses be more inclusive. We cover important issues- to begin with- identifying the lack of diversity, to training staff to be more more accommodating and understanding of the queer folks, implementing policies and including them in existing policies, etc. We also discuss inclusion with reference to persons with disability, special needs, learning disabilities, etc as well.

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents:작업 역동성| The One With Tutu Popoola - On The Workplace Dynamics Of The “Woke” Generation: Episode 17 (2021) We are in the digital era, a time when Gen Zers and younger millennials are changing the traditional patterns of the workplace.

The face of business is changing. In the past, seeking a job rarely involved sharing intimate details about your values. Sure, job seekers would talk about the typical values of honesty, integrity, or open-mindedness, but mentioning you were a vegan was not at all a part of the conversation. Fast forward to today, and talking about one’s passion for a lifestyle choice, specifically being a vegan, can serve you in your job search. With a rise in businesses that identify as vegans, job seekers and consultants, speakers, coaches and digital nomads have incredible opportunity to find work that aligns with their deepest values. In a recent conversation with Tania De Bruler, founder and CEO of Specilised HR Solutions, a company dedicated to matching vegan job seekers with organizations within the vegan industry, Tania shared powerful insights that any vegan job seeker will benefit from. Equally, companies who are seeking to grow within this industry, who may need information on HR systems and strategies, would be well served to visit specialisedhrhttps://.co.uk/membership/. A highly content driven membership program for your HR needs, this is a great choice for start up organizations seeking answers and solutions to your most pressing HR questions and needs. The HR Membership is a designated area for providing companies with access to a wealth of resources and tools to enable you to manage your employees effectively and efficiently. Available 24/7 to provide any support through the membership area. Tania is a senior HR specialist and consultant and worked for over 18 years in some of the UK’s leading organisations in the public and private sector, at HR Manager, Business Partner and Director level. She established the UK's first vegan and ethical HR Consultancy, Specialised HR Solutions in 2013. As an MCIPD qualified practitioner she has been the UK’s leading expert in effectively employing vegans for the last 10 years. Tania also co-owns Ethical-Careers.com – a recruitment website for ethical businesses and charities to advertise jobs and for like-minded people to find work. She also mentors vegan and ethical business owners whilst in the start-up phase.

Getting married, giving birth, planning upcoming moves, or being already committed to a job, all these reasons can make it difficult to turn a business idea into reality. Gertraud Eregger shares with you how she planned to start her business with small baby steps while taking the time she needed to give birth, take care of her baby and slowly transition from her job to launching her business. It is rarely the right time to start a business. Through Gertraud ‘s story you will learn how to build a plan to make sure to launch your business idea, while doing it at your own pace and without getting overwhelmed. “Take every opportunity that comes and you will find yourself achieving things you never thought you could do” (http://tandemnomads.com/pb)   Gertraud Eregger is an international HR professional and coach. She is Austrian by birth, lived and worked as an expat in Africa and currently in Jamaica. Gertraud is an expert in international recruitment, talent acquisition, executive search and transition coaching. In Ethiopia, she was managing the country’s leading HR Consultancy, worked as only expat among the local team and fostered the restructuring of the organization. During her tenure, the organization won the ‘Outstanding Supplier Award’ of a global garment manufacturing company and top investor in the country. Working and living in VUCA markets has shaped her leadership skills, resilience and certainly her appetite for adventure. Currently, she works for a global executive search network and connects organizations across the world to elaborate growth and mutual synergies. As an independent coach, she is passionate to support female expatriates to overcome challenges when starting a new leadership role in a new country and culture, during the assignment or repatriation, so they feel focused, energized and have a positive mindset. She got inspired by so many woman she met and worked with along the last years, so she felt a need to specifically support high achieving expat women on their mission and help them discover how they can maximize their impact, have more time and more energy.

Lucinda is joined by Bina Briggs, the founder and director of Plain Talking HR. Many in the human resources industry feel the desire to move into independent consultancy but might not know how to go about it. Having transitioned into this area successfully over the past ten years, Bina has all kinds of invaluable advice on how to do so, as well as a wealth of insights on how companies can best use the skills and tools that independent consultants can offer. KEY TAKEAWAYS Plain Talking HR's business strategy back in 2009 at its beginning was “network, network, network”, because making a name outside of the corporate bubble is vital. The other important tenet was social media, which was still in its infancy. Even back then, its importance was clear to see. Branding was a vital part of establishing the business in the early days. The colours of their logo was memorable and made Plain Talking HR a real talking point among the industry. Always keep your goals in mind. When you've achieved certain landmarks in your business, whether time-wise or financially, begin to outsource the tasks you're not strongest at, so that you can concentrate on growing the business. Remember that it's always best to “work on your business rather than in your business” HR consultancy is somewhere between being a business partner and a director. Clients use Plain Talking HR as their outsourced HR department, dealing with processes such as recruitment, contracts, induction, terms and conditions and employee handbooks. Quite often, Bina is introduced to a company who have employed a business coach to help them improve their growing company. Accreditations and processes are needed in order to grow, and Bina finds herself shaping the next phase of the company's growth. Remember to keep things simple. You are a supplier. Companies don't want to know anything other than how quickly you can supply, how much it's going to cost, is it going to be of value and does it fit with their business and goals. Always keep up with your own self-development as well as the developments within the industry. As a consultant, you should be the end point for anyone looking for advice, so ensure that your training and expertise are current and all-encompassing. At the beginning of your consultancy, the temptation to follow the money can be overwhelming. But as time goes by you will learn that it's more important to work with companies who share your values. Choose your customers carefully. BEST MOMENTS 'To be honest I would never have thought that I would be a consultant' ‘Do what you're good at, and leave the rest to people who aren't good at that' ‘Work on your business rather than in your business' ‘It's about keeping it simple' ‘Integrity is vital' 'Stay with what you feel comfortable with, and what your true self is' VALUABLE RESOURCES Plain Talking HR The HR Uprising Podcast | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher ABOUT THE GUEST Bina Briggs Plain Talking HR Ltd was born in 2009 and after a fruitful 8-year business partnership, I'm flying solo as Director of the company. My clients tell me that they like the warm and human approach to HR that I and my team portray together with our passion and enthusiasm. I arrived in the UK as a refugee from Uganda in 1972.  Both my general life experiences and my background working in the corporate world have given me a strong foundation for the work I now carry out for my clients, who are in the main small-to-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). I hold Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development qualification and am commercially experienced in supporting various businesses in industries such as education, aviation, manufacturing, engineering, charities, global merchandising, IT, medical and dental, to name a few. Prior to running Plain Talking HR, I was the Human Resources Manager for London Luton Airport, having worked in the Aviation industry for seventeen years. I have adapted to and managed change in HR strategies, policies and practices throughout my HR career.  I work with various stakeholders, during times of rapid growth of the organisations I support. I take pride in understanding my clients' issues and support them with practical and pragmatic advice for all their employment matters. Outside work, I love my family, keeping in touch with extended family scattered around the globe and love travelling.

My guest this week is Helen Brooks from the School of Arts at the University of Kent. Helen is Reader in Drama and a specialist on theatre in the First World War and she tells us how it was the case that her students precipitated this research area and we learn why she prefers to watch rather than read plays. Helen grew up in Kingston, Surrey, and we discover that one of her earliest memories is cycling along the towpath near her home. She tells us that she has quite a visual memory and how, as a child, time seemed to move more slowly. When growing up Helen was exposed to an eclectic range of music at home – everything from Motown to Handel’s Messiah, and she tells us why she felt especially nostalgic when recently listening to music during an episode of 'Derry Girls'. We also discover that Helen was really into 'Doctor Who' in the early 1990s at a time when it wasn’t cool and that Peter Davison, who played the fifth incarnation of 'Doctor Who', sent her a handwritten birthday card on her 13th birthday. The conversation then turns to what can happen if one is perceived as different to other children when at school.  Helen tells us about why she enjoyed revision as a child and was discouraged by her school from studying Drama at ‘A’ level, wanting her to do English and History instead. We talk about the ‘value’ of a degree, and Helen tells us about the time she worked for an HR Consultancy before going to university. She also reveals why she has considered contacting her former teachers from school. The conversation then moves on to her time at the University of Exeter where, as a Drama student, she wasn’t allowed to join any student societies. She talks about her apprehension of studying Samuel Beckett and how it can take a while to realize the importance of a module that was taken - decades later, sometimes. We also talk about diaries and Helen explains how and why she returned to writing a diary five years ago, and who it is being written for. We talk about the disconnect that can arise via a diary between the grand political events swirling around us and the way everyday life carries on.  In the final part of the interview we learn that Helen’s memories are predominantly positive despite being quite a worrier from a young age, and Helen reflects on how she and her university friends have followed totally different life and career paths yet how there is something that holds them all together. As a child her dream was to be a serious actor and we learn why she feels that there are comparisons between performing on stage and being a teacher. Finally, we find out whether Helen is a looking back or a looking forward type of person and why she tries to live in the present. Please note: Opinions expressed are solely those of Chris Deacy and Helen Brooks and do not necessarily represent the views or opinions of the University of Kent.
