24. Reimagining HR in Divisive Times

Just when you thought you knew what was in store for HR in 2025... the landscape has changed.

From political shifts and cultural clashes to the rollback of DEI initiatives, there’s no shortage of challenges shaking up workplaces right now. In this episode, I unpack what’s making organisations and HR teams uncomfortable and, more importantly, what leaders should and could be doing to support their people, including themselves.

We’ll cover everything from navigating divisive topics in the workplace, preparing for AI-driven workforce changes, and tackling the ongoing debate around flexible work. You’ll walk away with practical strategies to help you cut through the chaos and regain some calm.

If you’re feeling the weight of these changes and wondering how to lead through them, this episode is for you. Tune in, reflect, and let’s start reimagining what HR can be because we don't want to continue with heavy hearts and clouded minds.

How are you approaching political and social divisiveness in your workplace? We’d love to hear your thoughts, connect with me on LinkedIn and let’s keep the conversation going!
