from Let's Table That · host Borderless AI

Andrew Bartlow’s been in HR longer than most people have been in the workforce, and he’s not here for the “HR as note-taker” era anymore.From becoming a CHRO at 23 to helping scale Invitation Homes from $500M to $25B, to now building People Leader Accelerator, Andrew’s seen what separates HR leaders who sit in meetings… from the ones who actually shape them.Recorded live at Transform Conference, this conversation gets into:- why most HR leaders get stuck as “cruise directors” (and how to break out of it)- how to actually tie your work to business outcomes (not just initiatives)- why credibility triumphs permission when it comes to earning a seat at the tableHe also gets real about building (and shutting down) his own SaaS product, a two-year lesson in why passion ≠ product-market fit.If you’re in HR and want to stop facilitating conversations… and start driving them, pull up a chair.
