I work with many leaders, and most of them are cautious. So, cautious in fact, they proclaim that they “wait until the right time” to make certain moves when it comes to recruitment and starting to build their employer brand as if it were a good thing!
Please don’t take this personally, but the right time was five years ago.
TIMING IS NOT YOUR MASTER
It’s an odd obsession…or excuse…to allow time to dictate whether we do our jobs or not. Sure, the answer is always the battle of negotiating some perceived internal political storm. But, why is human resources and talent acquisition always on the defensive?
Perhaps the time has come for us to take the talent shortages directly to those political opponents and call them out?
– They’ve held the organization back through their failed attempts to hang on to outdated strategies.
– They’ve failed the organization by not understanding and using current technologies to their fullest to attract the best and brightest talent.
– Based on these outdated attempts to cling to power, it is now human resources’ obligation to drive change as quickly as possible before the competition completely outmaneuvers the company.
BE YOUR MASTER
The data, complaints and noise that is constantly directed at human resources is no longer acceptable. These are not HR’s failures.
They represent a culture of arrogance that wishes for everything to be perfect, yet is not willing to do anything differently.

HR is ready, willing and able to step up and lead the way. And it is now time to seize control to ensure the work actually gets done.
HOW ABOUT YOU
HOW ABOUT YOU
Tough talk? Maybe. But, how many more meetings would you like to attend where HR gets criticized…again? The same goes for me…none.
I’d love to hear from you.
