Guest: Ben Brooks, founder and CEO of PILOT

As a part of Paycom's HR Tech series, HR Break Room®'s Morgan Beard sat down with Ben Brooks, an executive coach and thought leader, for a wide-ranging conversation in Las Vegas.

From HR practitioner to the founder of his own company, PILOT, Brooks taps into his expertise of career coaching to discuss the state of HR, the workplace and the future of both.

"Work can be a transformative, exciting place where we meet best friends and have these transformative, amazing experiences. But it takes each one of us being a real active owner in our careers," Brooks said.

In this episode of HR Break Room, Brooks discusses the:

• importance of career development in regards to retention
• difference between the "great resignation" and "quiet quitting"
• blurring of work-life balance
