Questions Posed to Dave Include:

• Throughout the Covid crisis, you have remained an optimist; emphasizing the opportunities available to HR leaders willing to use this time as a chance to learn and grow. When it comes to the role of the HR function in contributing to the overall success of the org, what are you most hopeful for in 2022?
• What are the biggest challenges facing HR leaders now and through the rest of 2022? what are the roadblocks facing hr and leaders to getting to success in the marketplace? 
• How has 'The David Ulrich HR model' evolved over the past 25 years? 
• In a 2021 interview, you explain "now is the time to reinvent HR by pivoting from benchmarking and best practice to guidance. Instead of improving by comparing oneself to others and by adapting what others do well, we must move beyond these descriptions of HR work to prescriptions ... We want to move to guidance to be prescriptive on what should be done." Please can you expand on the why and explain how HR departments can become more prescriptive?
