What does it take to transform HR while navigating uncertainty? Mary Faulkner, Principal at IA, returns to the HR Chat Show to share powerful insights on sustainable transformation, strategic HR, and creating adaptable organizations.Mary's journey from aspiring stunt car driver to HR transformation expert began with a passion for statistics and continuous improvement. Her unique "build vs. maintain" philosophy emphasizes the importance of questioning the status quo without changing for change's sake. "You need to create an environment which that is OK," Mary explains, highlighting how leadership must establish "permission to question, permission to think differently." This balance between innovation and thoughtful implementation becomes especially crucial during turbulent times.Drawing from her extensive experience solving "big messy problems," Mary shares fascinating examples of global HR implementations where standardization meets localization. Her work with multinational organizations reveals the complexity of balancing global consistency with local requirements—especially in regulatory environments like the United States. "We very much believe that you should be as standard as possible and as different as required," she notes, capturing the nuanced approach needed for sustainable transformation.Perhaps most valuable is Mary's insight into HR's role as an organizational bridge-builder. She emphasizes that effective HR leaders must be "bilingual"—fluent in business operations while advocating for workforce needs. Understanding how a company makes, saves, and spends money allows HR to translate strategic objectives to the individual level, ensuring organizational success and employee wellbeing align rather than conflict.As organizations face continued economic uncertainty, Mary offers practical wisdom for the path forward: focus on process optimization, creative workforce management, and building resilience.

Mary Faulkner, principal at IA-HR, joins The New Talent Code to discuss the questions every HR leader should be asking as they gear up for a business transformation. As a talent strategist and problem solver, Faulkner has extensive experience helping organizations optimize their HR practices to take a more future-forward approach. She specializes in change management and teaching people how to transform their organizations from within. This episode explores best practices for when to start the change management process, how to get leadership buy-in, and how to identify broken processes before embarking on a transformation journey. Here are the biggest takeaways from the episode with Mary Faulkner: - "If you find yourself constantly changing, but you don't have a change methodology to help support people through that change, all you're going to feel is chaos. It's never too soon to start thinking about change management, your communication plan, your training plan, your stakeholder identification." - Mary Faulkner [11:37] - "The organizations where they centralize that ownership of a job description, I think it's smoother. So it's not the hiring managers reacting to something and having to rewrite it, somebody else is doing it for them. Someone who's knowledgeable, someone who understands the market, somebody who has talked to compensation." - Mary Faulkner [20:12]

In another episode recorded live during this year’s Work Human Conference, Todd Schnick and Mike Wood are joined by Mary Faulkner, a senior advisor at IA HR and Matthew Stollak from St. Norbert's College, for a fun and fascinating conversation about pop culture, the impact of technology on modern workplaces and whether or not there really is something different about Millenials.  What does Pop Culture have to teach us?Because Mike loves Twitter, and because Mary and Matthew are both very active on the platform, they start with a discussion of one of social media’s favorite topics: pop culture. Mary talks about the movie Office Space, and how she wants all of her teams to see how ridiculous it is to be using jargon, to be letting policy and procedure take the place of human interaction and that not too many people really care about Hawaiian-shirt day. She goes on to say that the idea of one person walking into a company and saving everyone from bad management just isn’t realistic.  Has Technology Changed Us?Matthew works at a college and has plenty of access to the next generation of new employees. He talks about the impact technology has on how we interact with each other, bringing up the all-too-familiar example of a phone on the table when you’re talking to someone. Mike shares an example about long meeting days, and how people need to work while they’re in meetings to get everything done, and Mary questions the management decisions that lead to that kind of behavior. Matthew brings things back to reality telling us that there has always been new technology, and people have always worried about the impact it has on workplaces and relationships.  Does Generation Make a Difference?Matthew points out that in a classroom of 18 to 22-year-olds, you’re going to see a diversity of outlook, interest, dedication, priorities, and motivations - just like you would in any group of people who have nothing in common other than the year they’re born in. Mary talks about what this means in terms of recruiting and creating benefits packages that will appeal to different people - making assumptions about what someone wants or needs based on their birth year isn’t practical - the real differentiating factor is where people are in their lives and what they want for themselves. Having a Shared PurposeTo build a strong company culture, you have to have a shared purpose, and the people working for an organization need to have aligned values. It’s that, more than anything else that will dictate how successful a company is. Mary shares an example of a water utility company she once worked at, and adds that over time, people and companies change - what was once a great fit may not always be. You don’t need a perfect value alignment - but you should be aware of what level of deviance from your own values you can tolerate.  What Should Employers Be Doing?Todd asks Mary and Matthew what is the one thing that employers, managers, and owners should be doing to make work human?Matthew says they should be listening to people and fostering a culture of respect and authenticity. Mary agrees and adds that if you’re going to be asking for feedback - you need to act on it, or genuinely explain why you can’t. Otherwise, it seems like just so much fluff.  ResourcesConnect with Matthew Stollak on Twitter @AkaBruno or by emailConnect with Mary Faulkner on Twitter at @MFaulkner43 or by email

If you work in HR, your job is to build a better experience for employees. But how do we really do that? And are our modern HR teams actually standing in our own way? Meghan M. Biro talks to longtime HR practitioner and problem solver Mary Faulkner.

In a recent podcast, Mary Faulkner, author of Surviving Leadership Blog, brings up the most important question to avoid on employee engagement surveys. She says that companies must absolutely stop asking questions about things they are completely unwilling (or unable) to change. All too often organizations populate employee engagement/satisfaction surveys with questions about aspects of the company or its policies with the intention of trying to sense how employees feel about those issues. When there is no chance for a change to those issues, these organizations are doing more harm than good. When we ask employees their opinion about something we don’t intend to change – we disrespect the employees time and opinion.

Employee Engagement surveys have become a backbone to understanding and maintaining the mental and emotional health of an organization. They are an excellent way to begin the journey of creating the employee experience that will finally boost those low engagement scores. One of the trickiest parts about these surveys is asking the right questions. There is a whole field of psychology that goes into making sure the questions are asked in such a way as to illicit the most honest answer from the respondent while minimizing participation bias. When forming questions for internal employee engagement surveys, companies must understand the goal of such surveys before even beginning to attempt to piece together questions. In almost every case, the goal of these surveys is to determine what the employer needs to do in order to help facilitate a more engaged workforce. It is certainly important to ask questions about respect, safety and belongingness, but what types of questions should we avoid when sending out these surveys to our employees?

Everyone wants to feel heard. Everyone wants to feel like their opinion matters. Certainly, the employee engagement survey is great way to start facilitating that process; however, we have to be committed to driving change. Organizational change is the purpose of employee engagement surveys. If organizations are unwilling or unable to change based off the results of their surveys, then they would have been better off never asking in the first place. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/forgeant/support

The way we are in the world, not often do we find women as the subject of spirituality. Generally, spirituality came as more political in our past and has always been of men. Changing that and placing a light on women in the picture is Mary Faulkner, pioneer in the field of mind-body healing as both a therapist and a teacher who employs clinical hypnotherapy in her work. She is the author of Women's Spirituality: Power and Grace. Mary gives a peek into her book as she differentiates between women and men's spirituality and tackles the spiritual traditions of traditional religious organizations. She also touches on the goddess archetypes, rituals, and ceremonies, and highlights the history of women and giving them these role models who have already done things in the past and then relating them to modern women. Inspiring us as well, she talks about how women can overcome and rise above from the underworld of addiction and disorders. Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!

When it comes to changing hearts and minds in the workplace, nothing will bring people to your podium like a powerful personal story. Today, Jennifer talks with her good friend and old colleague Mary Faulkner, the author of the widely read blog Surviving Leadership. She is currently the Director of Human Resources, Talent and Total Rewards at Denver Water. Can you guess what Mary wanted to be as a young woman? Mary tells us a little bit about her educational and business history and how she found herself in the world of HR. The two met in 2013 while Jennifer was working a consulting contract at the company Mary was a part of. Mary talks about the details of her career since 2013, Jennifer’s influence on her development, and her blog HR-focused blog called Surviving Leadership. The focus of Mary’s blog isn’t just about the view from the top down; she also consistently approaches HR from an employee position and touches on a broad range of topics within the corporate landscape. One of the themes that Mary has been writing about is fear-based leadership in the workplace. For example, fears of innovation failure, fears of internal politics, or fear of speaking one’s mind. She uses the example of the #MeToo movement and the cultures of fear that prevent people from speaking out. What can those in leadership roles do to make space for people to speak out? Mary offers some specific suggestions for those at the top. A deep understanding of the many idiosyncrasies of corporate leadership culture is bound to change the way one sees the workplace. Jennifer asks Mary about how her work and writing has changed her own leadership style and work relationships. Like thousands of other impact makers, Twitter changed the game for Mary Faulkner. Jennifer asks Mary about how being connected to a globally diverse range of people has impacted her perspective and working style. Through her social media coverage of HR conferences, Mary has been invited to cover, speak at and organize a range of events. Jennifer asks Mary about how these experiences have helped her grow her career and enhance her practice. When it comes to laying it out for the top brass, HR departments are often on the back foot when justifying their programs. So being an HR practitioner and a consistently travelling speaker isn’t so common. Mary talks about how she balances these two parts of her career and offers some advice for conference organizers on how to get more HR practitioners on the stage. Stage fright is no joke but there are even greater challenges to building a quality conference presentation. Mary provides some pointers on how to work your way up to the podium and the value of presenting your story. Who are some the biggest impact makers in Mary Faulkner’s life? Mary talks about some of her leadership mentors and about the future of career.   Resources & Links: Mary Faulkner website Mary Faulkner LinkedIn Mary Faulkner Twitter Mary Faulkner Instagram DisruptHR DisruptHR Denver Carla Shull Laurie Ruettimann Paul Hebert Matthew Stollak Steve Browne   Are you struggling with developing your personal brand?

In this episode, our host Jennifer McClure talks about the importance of developing key relationships when trying to maximize your impact in our world. Digital communication has made it easier to connect with people across the globe but nothing replaces intentional connections and a deep commitment to reciprocity. Jennifer shares her strategy for building relationships and relays some stories about a few amazing people that she has connected with. Jennifer identifies 3 types of people that you should focus on building relationships with. Whether they are in your community, industry or desired area of impact, these intentional relationships will be above and beyond the most enriching, compared to quick-and-easy connections found online. Focus on the long-term! Jennifer stresses the intentional and strategic elements of relationship building and what they mean for your network and business down the road. Keep an eye out for potential mentors, skip the coffee date, and be prepared to make an investment! Many of these people are farther along in their journey and are working to deliver value to hundreds, if not thousands (or even millions) of people. Take advantage of services such as coaching and courses to get right to the heart of what they are offering. Jennifer relays her experience with leadership mentor Michael Hyatt and how joining his community enabled her to connect with well-known high achievers. She also talks about her relationships with online marketing expert Amy Porterfield and professional speaker Ryan Estis as other examples. Who do you know already? Stepping back and taking stock of your existing networks, communities and even competitors, can uncover new opportunities for building more intentional and valuable relationships. Jennifer talks about a few people in her network like Laurie Ruettimann, Steve Browne, Kris Dunn, and Cy Wakeman. Who can you grow, refer, and champion? Jennifer stresses the importance of staying on the lookout for people to bring up, particularly those from diverse backgrounds who don’t have access to the same resources or opportunities as yourself. She also offers some examples of people she has encouraged and learned from such as Mary Faulkner and Michael Sipple Jr. Who is above you, who do you know, and who can you grow? Jennifer summarizes the 3 types of people to build relationships with in order to maximize impact between everyone involved.

During those times when life seems empty and we’re feeling lonely, lost, or “less-than” or even struggling with addiction--it’s often because our spirit has become squashed. We’ve disconnected or shut ourselves down. You hear it in the stories we tell. Driven by injury, false beliefs, fear, we accept this manufactured vision of ourselves as true. Yet our lives have the ability to go from a living hell to living our version of paradise when we release our spirit from bondage. We can indeed achieve a Happy, Joyous and Free life! And that’s why Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag (HCI Books, June 2014) is such an essential and life-changing resource for so many. Crafted by best-selling authors, respected leaders in the recovery movement, and founders of Nashville’s Integrative Life Center, Lee McCormick and Mary Faulkner, offer a way out of life’s maze. The book is half autobiographical journey and half medicine bag ... filled with spiritual healing practices for those who are struggling with any aspect of life. But Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag wouldn’t have the gut-punching impact that it does, were it not for McCormick’s willingness to bare all … to strip away the layers and let us share his journey to addiction-free, spiritually enriched mental and emotional health.
