About This Episode
In Episode 97 of The HR Morning Show, hosts Serge Boudreau and Dan Riley dive into the evolving pressures facing modern People Ops professionals, starting with surprising OpenAI research on cross-functional HR scope creep and the delicate protocol surrounding executive resignations. The hosts explore how understaffed HR teams are increasingly leveraged to cover non-HR operational gaps like marketing and finance, alongside actionable career advice on managing public departure announcements without compromising personal brand transparency or long-term reputation. The episode features dynamic guest conversations spanning the entire workplace ecosystem. AltHR Hive co-founders Mindy Honcoop and Marnie Robbins introduce their human-centered SIGNAL framework designed to cure HR isolation and burnout through agility and trust. Next, doctoral researcher Heather Wilson challenges legacy paradigms by proposing a shift from traditional HRD to Organizational Development, while addressing the critical judgment gap in AI education. Closing out the hour, serial founder Kristy McCann delivers an unfiltered account of balancing multi-hat executive leadership while actively battling a former venture capital firm in federal court.
