Meet a Chief Drama Slayer

from Workplace Confessions: Behind Closed Doors · host Dawn Andrews & Elsa Barbi

Workplace investigations are supposed to reveal the truth, but most companies accidentally design a process that breeds silence, fear, and repeat drama. We’re joined by Patti Perez, a former employment lawyer turned HR leader and third-party investigator who has conducted thousands of workplace investigations and now trains the next generation to do the work with rigor and humanity. From quid pro quo harassment to messy breakups that spill into the office, Patti explains what these cases really look like when the door closes and the interviews begin.Subscribe, share this with a manager or HR friend, and leave a review with your take: what makes you trust a workplace investigation process enough to speak up?Send us Fan MailWant to be interviewed?
