Awkward with HR

Susan and integrative psychotherapist, Kimberly

CEO and former Navy Commander Jason Simon discusses the plight of front-line managers and the role of HR to train and provide resources to this traditionally under-supported segment of management. We cover a lot of ground from weaponized candy to 360 performance reviews, so strap in and hold on tight as we dive into these challenging waters.

This episode touches on several uncomfortable topics, including the impact of geopolitics and national origin discrimination on the global workforce. If critics cared, they'd say, "Worthy of cringes!" and "Unforgettable (still trying)." Listen along to expand your understanding of these important, complex, and awkward concepts affecting employees around the globe.

Susan and Amanda return from their awkward podcast pause to cover the topic of free labor (both lawful and unlawful), including their own experiences working for free. This episode includes spontaneous singing and puppetry...sorry and you're welcome!

Our very first episode! Listen in as we introduce ourselves and the series and even share a few golden knowledge nuggets. Topics broached include career fails, local wage and hour law, hard-to-spell / pronounce names, unions, and cute babies (you're welcome!). We hope to get feedback on what topics you'd like discussed, whether educational, entertaining or just weird, as the topics relate to Human Resources.
