In this episode, Dean Newlund and Andrew Bartlow discuss:

• The age of opportunity for Human Resources
• Hiring people in the current environment 
• Shifting your mindset 
• The roles of an HR professional

Key Takeaways:

• This is an age of opportunity. Business leaders are demanding an answer from human resources, and this is HR’s opportunity to figure it out and create and deploy workable solutions for the organization. 
• Start with the basics, and have a plan. Determine why somebody would want to work for you and why somebody who already does would want to stay, then, tell that story. Expand your pool as much as you can. 
• The way that HR approaches the work will largely drive how they are perceived by the executive team. How they see themselves affects how the organization will see them. It changes the role when the mindset shifts and the HR aspires to be an executive. 
• The HR can be more than just the organization’s mascot, they can be the person who lets the CEO know how they are received or are affecting the company or an internal management consultant that gives sound advice and provides solutions to organizational challenges. 

 "Figure out why you’re differentiated - why would somebody come work for you, why would somebody stay. And then tell the story. That’s powerful. Then, you can start fishing - if you have a clear, logical, story to tell." — Andrew Bartlow
