A People-First Approach to Transforming HR: Revisiting Tracie Sponenberg, Chief People Officer

Leading with compassion is one thing (and a good thing at that). But what if whole departments ran on a standard of sensitivity and genuine emotional concern for the people in their care, be they customers or employees? Before leaving The Granite Group to start her own consultancy, Tracie Sponenberg held the title of Chief People Officer. She's credited with shifting the company's human resources perspective towards compassion over compliance.  In this revisited episode, Jason speaks with Tracie about the impetus for this mindset change, strategies for CEOs interested in making similar upgrades to their company's HR culture, and what she's doing now to support the meaningful evolution of workforce administration.
