Most project professionals treat HR like the corporate principal's office, that we place we all try to avoid until someone makes a bad joke or a hire falls through. In reality, abdicating your talent management to a siloed department is the fastest way to doom your deliverables. Former Sazerac CHRO Joe Bongiovi drops in to explain why positional authority is a complete joke if you lack the influence to back it up. We tear down the "Golden Rule" in favor of the "Platinum Rule," expose the delusion of Ivy League recruiting, and break down why treating people like static puzzle pieces destroys project agility. If you think shouting "I'm in charge" actually makes you the leader, prepare for a harsh reality check
