The Tough Talks
Let's start this episode of HR Besties with some gratitude and love for YOU as we wrap up season one. Then we'll get into the meat of the agenda: difficult conversations in the workplace. There is a need for honesty, respect, and empathy when addressing sensitive issues, such as personal hygiene or performance feedback.

Of course, we have some personal experiences including telling an employee about their body odor and asking another to stop collecting scabs at his desk. Learn more about your ad choices.

At the end of the day ... HR has challenges and rewards, and the Besties encourage those interested in HR to pursue it, despite the difficulties. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today's Your Last Day
TODAY'S AGENDA AND NOTES: Let's start out by discussing the joys of intense and surprising interview situations, such as being led into a room with 30 people for an interview and being asked to answer a packet of questions for two and a half hours. (Spoiler alert: There are no joys in that.) The big order of business today are layoffs, particularly the concept of "lazy layoffs". Leigh, Jamie, and Ashley all have personal experiences and stories about the process of layoffs, highlighting the emotional toll it takes on both the employees being let go and the HR professionals tasked with delivering the news. We'll talk through the CEOs who handle layoffs poorly, such as those who make insincere public displays of empathy or fail to provide adequate resources and support for outgoing employees. The Besties also discuss the importance of transparency and respect in the layoff process, and suggest ways to avoid layoffs, such as reevaluating and redesigning roles within the company. In conclusion: empathy and consideration in handling layoffs, please. Is that too much to ask?
