Disrupting the Status Quo: People, Purpose, and Culture with Audra McCreesh

Dalene Allen Season 11 Episode 32

In this episode, we sit down with Audra McCreesh, Founder and Lead Consultant of HR & IDEA Hub and the force behind DisruptHR Halifax, the high-energy event series reshaping how Atlantic Canada talks about people, purpose, and workplace culture.

Audra is a strategist, connector, and change-maker who works at the intersection of human resources, business development, and inclusion. From designing tailored workforce and HR programs, to supporting emerging tech SMEs tied to Canada’s defence sector and Industrial and Technological Benefits obligations, to advising leaders on how to embed Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility into culture in ways that are meaningful and measurable, her work is both broad and deeply human.

Known for bringing unlikely partners together, Audra has a unique ability to bridge corporate, government, community, and entrepreneurial worlds and turn shared intent into real collaboration. In this conversation, we explore what it takes to move beyond surface-level commitments, how organizations can create workplaces where people and ideas truly belong, and why curiosity, courage, and connection matter more than ever in today’s world of work.

Playful yet precise and empathetic yet driven, Audra shares insights, stories, and practical perspectives that will challenge how you think about leadership, culture, and impact. If you care about building better workplaces and partnerships that actually work, this episode is for you.
