Why You Are the Wrong Person to Lead Your HR Department
from HR For Small Business I Human Resources, CFO, Corporate, Compliance, Recruiting · host Brad Voorhees - HR Consultant, Business Coach
Is your HR department reporting to finance simply because nobody else is available to lead it? If your HR Generalist needed senior-level guidance tomorrow, who would they turn to? How much of your week is being consumed by HR decisions you were never hired or trained to make? In today's episode of HR for Small Business, we're talking about why so many CFOs and finance leaders find themselves leading HR departments, why that model eventually creates risk for both the business and the HR team, and what you can do instead. If you've ever felt like you're carrying an HR department you don't have time to manage—or you're trying to develop an HR Generalist without having the HR experience to mentor them—this episode is for you. By the end of our conversation, you'll have a practical framework to elevate your HR department, reduce people risk, and finally get HR moving forward without it depending entirely on you.
