What words of advice and encouragement would you give to someone just starting out in HR?
We are going through a rather unprecedented time of change and transformation, your thoughts and ideas are just as relevant as someone who is an experienced HR professional. It’s going to take us all to understand where we go from here. And, above all, this is YOUR career, not someone else’s. Don’t measure your growth (or lack of it) against anyone else. Just go do your thing, work hard, be positive, be kind, and you’ll have great opportunities open up for you.
