Most organizations aren't shaping the future of work, they're chasing it.
In this episode, I share what CHROs admit privately but rarely say out loud: HR has become reactive, stuck in firefighting mode, and focused on looking good instead of doing what actually drives results. Traditional HR metrics are backward-looking, accountability has eroded, and the pendulum has swung dangerously toward entitlement.
This isn't about blaming employees. It's about restoring honesty, balance, and courage in leadership. Because work is a value exchange—and when leaders are afraid to say that, both performance and culture suffer.
The future of work doesn't need more perks. It needs leaders willing to tell the truth.
