We Don't Hate Our Jobs

from HR unConfidential

Why are talented HR leaders are walking away from their jobs? It's not because they hate their jobs, but perhaps they hate what their jobs have become. Listen as Gina & Turiya talk to Cheryl Baptiste about her recent Substack article about this very topic. They discuss CHRO turnover trends, the invisible scope creep that turns strategic partners into organizational catch-alls, and what it actually feels like to care deeply about your work while watching it become unrecognizable. We also talk about what comes next: Is the HR profession deteriorating or transforming? And what would it take to bring joy back to this work?
