Human Resources, or People Ops, is one of the most vital roles in business, because modern leaders realize that their people are the key to their success. HR Superstars is a podcast from 15Five honoring you, the brave, 21st century HR leader, by highlighting stories and advice from the frontlines of People Ops. We delve deeply into all of the many aspects of what it takes to help companies win by being a strategic business partner to the rest of the leadership team. Each episode will showcase conversations with HR leaders from some of the world’s largest, successful, and innovative organizations like Twitter and Eventbrite. We get real with topics like empowering managers to adopt a growth mindset and practicing strengths-based leadership, how to have difficult conversations that balance the business performance needs with a high degree of care for people, and how to actually make diversity, equity, and inclusion a part of your cultural DNA instead of just lip service and a PR play. When your culture gets toxic, management is failing, and performance suffers, it falls to you in HR to address these issues. We’re here to help you to do what matters most—develop your workforce, create a strong employer brand, and be respected as the strategic business partner you are. Let’s do this superstar!
