Episode 19: Daniel's HR Origin Story
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Daniel’s HR Origin Story explores how an unplanned entry into HR during the 2008 job market shaped a career rooted in judgment, influence, and people-first leadership.
In this episode, we unpack what HR is actually responsible for beyond compliance, why the idea that “HR protects the company” falls short, and how COVID permanently shifted the expectations placed on the function. Daniel shares the pressure HR carries quietly, the moments that challenge personal values, and where he believes the profession must evolve next. This conversation is for HR professionals, leaders, and anyone who wants to understand the human side of work more honestly.
