Is This Room Free?
Welcome to Is This Room Free? In this podcast I will be talking to HR professionals and listening to the stories of their careers. I will be finding out about the journeys they have taken and what they learnt along the way. The purpose is to help others in the profession identify and understand the various paths available and take inspiration from my guest speakers. Whether you are someone who is looking to get that first step on the HR career ladder or an aspiring HR Director, I hope you get value from these conversations.

Wensdae Lucas - how your HR career can take you around the world
Have you ever wanted to work abroad but wondered how your HR career could facilitate this?
Well this week's guest on Is This Room Free? is Wensdae Lucas who has a very different career journey than any other guest I've had on. That's because she has spent the past ten years working in different countries for some of the world's most luxury brands in hospitality, tourism and retail. Her journey has taken her to the US, Abu Dhabi, Australia, and on cruise ships.
We discuss not only Wensdae's personal career steps in HR but the pro's and con's of living and working overseas, the adventures you can have but what you also have to sacrifice.
This is such an interesting conversation and will be hugely beneficial to anyone who has wondered how a career in HR could also help them see the world.
I hope you enjoy listening.
