The theme is "We just want a seat at the table." Nearly every HR professional has either said or heard those words. Unfortunately, most HR professionals are asking the wrong question. The question is not "how do I get a seat" the question is "how do I get them to beg for me to be at the table?"
Learning Objectives:
