The Importance of Different Professions Within a Business

There is status gap between departments in business. Finance is the treasury. Sales bring the money. Product / Engineering might make the things we sell. Legal creates the contracts we are all bound by. Where does TA / HR sit in this order? Why do recruiters / TA consistently seem to be a department that has fight extra hard to be heard? Perhaps, we lack 'institutional confidence'

- What is 'institutional confidence'

- How do we know this is a problem

- What do we need to do on departmental level to level the playing field?

- Is this even possible, or desirable thing to do?

- What is the role of evidence / data in producing better relationships

- How can we become more central to decision making

- Can a department build confidence?
