AMA: Building Trust As An HR Professional with Dr. Keri Ohlrich

Do HR practitioners have a bad reputation, and why is the answer yes?

Okay, it may not be universally true, but it certainly seems like there are some negative perceptions of HR practitioners that are haunting the profession. Just take a look at this Reddit thread!

So the next question is obviously: “Hey, that’s not who I am! I really do care! How do I make people see that?”

To answer that question — and any question you bring to her — we brought in Dr. Keri Ohlrich, a sweary and successful HR badass and author. She jumped into the hot seat to spill the tea on how she’s helped passionate HR people overcome negative stereotypes and become trusted partners within even the most complex workplaces.
