400 HRchat Podcast Episodes and Counting!

We made it! 400 HRchat episodes so far plus a host of special podcast spin-offs! Launched all the way back in the summer of 2016, it’s amazing to think we’ve hit such a milestone!

The HR Gazette team and I had planned to take today’s 400th episode in a very different direction but, although many countries around the world are optimistically coming out the other side of the Omicron wave, we are currently faced with new and scary challenges.

The geopolitical situation in Europe at the moment is weighing heavy on us all and threatens scenarios not seen in over 75 years.

For this reason, we decided to use the 400th edition of the HRchat podcast to remind us all of the kindness we all can choose to convey and the good we should always try to see in others.

Listen as we share a montage of insights from past guests on what it means to be a compassionate, loving, understanding, and thoughtful colleague or leader.

Listen and get inspiration from such experts as

• Dave Ulrich, PhD: What are some ways that leaders can deliver hope and purpose when the future is so uncertain for so many?
• Alysha Campbell: Building trust in the midst of uncertainty – anchoring Employee engagement strategies on the 8 pillars of trust.
• Bill Treasurer: Ways to build backbones, boost performance, and get results.
