HR Anon

HR Anonymous is back! I talk about my own very recent experience of sexism and lack of psychological safety at work. Why the lack of appetite for challenge? Why is any disagreement viewed as dissent and not up for debate? I discuss a couple of other posts on sexism that came to my attention this week - are women the ones with targets on their back, and are we still seeing casual sexism? Do women still have to achieve professional perfection whilst men are allowed to be their authentic selves and have personality, strengths and weaknesses? Why wasn't I allowed to make a joke to illustrate a point? Whilst a male colleague who, equipped with vape, would freely swear on calls and espoused anti-semitic views. As I was very mad on this episode I don't think that I was as articulate as I could have been! But have a listen and see what you think!
PS: I'm not recording one piece of this underwater, I was reading from an article and must have turned away from the mic ;)

In this episode I chat about to a non-HR PM on her view of the People Function and how she's leveraged it through her career. We touch on a number of subjects and I'll be expanding on these in my show notes which will be on the website shortly. Hope you enjoy the conversation!

In this episode I discuss some random HR-y thoughts with my guest, Bambi. I talk about getting dumped by text and how it relates to having basic respect for others - or not in this case! We also talk about her starting on her consulting journey, the ups, the downs and the whys. Enjoy!

The first proper episode of HR Anonymous! I chat to Lorraine about the woes of job hunting at the moment. We talk the current job market, feedback once you're in an interview process, do the roles we are applying for actually even exist?! We discuss employer brand in relation to the hiring process too. Lorraine tells me what she's grateful for and gives me a great and uplifting song for our soundtrack!
