Liz Weber: Why HR Executives Fail at the C-Suite Table, and What to Do Instead | Ready Set Exec
Your company values mean nothing if you're not willing to enforce them when it's hard.
Liz Weber is a Leadership Advisor to Boards, Owners, and C-suite teams with 33 years in business. She's a strategic and succession planning consultant, keynote speaker, author, and former chair of the IMC USA Ethics Committee. She works with organizations to build cultures that actually reflect what leadership says they believe — not just what's framed on the wall.
In this episode, we get into what real business ethics looks like in practice, how to hold people accountable without destroying relationships, why ESG is in limbo and what boards should do about it, and how HR executives can finally earn a seat and a voice at the C-suite table.
About Ready Set Exec: Founded by Managing Partners Patrick Shea and John Pezoulas, Ready Set Exec is a premier North American executive leadership recruitment firm specializing in Sales, Marketing, Human Resources, and Operations. We replace hiring chaos with a repeatable process, with an average time-to-hire of 39 days and a 100% placement success rate.
