SO, WHAT'S THE 'WE'RE HUMAN' PODCAST ABOUT?
Human Resources – love or hate the title, it makes it clear that it’s human beings you’re working with.
Not robots, not things; living, breathing, thinking, feeling humans.
Did you know….HR are human too, humans tasked with shouldering the transactional, the logistical, the strategic.. but also the emotive and the messy. The best and worst of human dynamics in the workplace. All with a smile, an air of calm, confidence and professionalism
The We’re People Podcast chats with dedicated professionals, the heroes without capes, about the trials and tribulations of working in HR. Of course, we will also discuss the joys, the quirks, the humour and the immense value HR has to offer. Personally I have never had a job that has made me both laugh and cry quite so much. A look through the lens of a different HR topic each episode and a variety of experienced guests, we consider the mindset, tools and support that HR folk have or SHOULD have to enable truly great practice – whatever the challenge. Of course, as host and former HR club member myself, I ensure confidentiality and safety for all concerned.
You might even learn a thing or two!
