Heart at Work with Trina Sunday
Heart at Work with Trina Sunday is a podcast for HR leaders and change-makers who believe there is a braver way to lead work and feel energised to step into it.
Hosted by human-first leadership strategist and creator of the HEART Work™ model, Trina Sunday draws on more than 25 years of experience across Australia, Asia, and global leadership communities to explore what it truly takes to build workplaces where people and performance thrive side by side.
This is not about policy updates or buzzwords. It is about the conversations that matter: influence, culture under pressure, leadership courage, and the behaviours that shape how work actually feels.
At the heart of it all is one relentless question: What are the real conditions for people to experience happiness at work?
Through honest reflections and global perspectives, Trina helps HR move from compliance to courageous influence, because there is no profit without a pulse.
If you are ready to lead with clarity, courage, and compassion, you are in the right place. Because HR has a new future. And it leads with heart.

28. Fixing Broken HR Processes: Lean Thinking for HR Teams
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How much time is your HR team spending on the work that actually moves the needle?
In this episode, I discuss lean thinking and how it can transform your HR function from reactive to high-impact. I’ll walk you through real stories from my clients and colleagues, showing how they've slashed admin, halved the time to hire, automated approvals, and saved thousands just by mapping their processes and fixing one thing at a time.
Suppose you’re stuck in firefighting mode, constantly chasing approvals, or drowning in manual data entry. In that case, this episode will show you how to cut the noise and create space for what really matters: your people, your strategy, your culture.
What’s one HR process in your team that feels clunky or inefficient? Send me a message on LinkedIn, and let’s talk about how you can fix it.
