Servant Leadership.
Human Resources (HR) Director:
Stay close to the business. Pay attention to the culture. Do as much as you can to remove HR obstacles and bureaucracy from managers and employees. Make sure that your HRIS system works for the business, not the other way around. Lead by serving, not by imposing directives.
March 2016
Never Assume.
Human Resources (HR) Director:
Like a lawyer, don't allow yourself to be surprised. Know all aspects of your project or what you are working on so you are not caught off guard.
Never assume that people are taking care of something or doing what you THINK they should be doing.
Hard facts and information take you further to where you want to go.
Research, research, and do more research.

Take a deep breath before taking action and give yourself permission to think through the problem.
