Thinking of ups and downs within the HR working life department, such as juggling people, processes, management and constant change etc. What is one piece of advise anyone could give to keep employees satisfied to want to grow and stay motivated with their HR career?

My best advice is to actively learn how to not care what people think. HR has a lot of demands and expectations from all different groups and teams and managers and leadership… If you try to keep everybody happy, you're going to burn yourself out. Do what you need to do, abide by the policies, but don't work yourself sick trying to make everybody happy. You never will!

I have gotten really good at that, I used to care massively but now I don’t and it’s the most freeing feeling. You can’t be a people pleaser all the time, just have to take it how it is and get on with it.

Keep reminding yourself why you started. HR is about people, not just policies. Celebrate small wins and keep learning. Growth follows purpose.

Yes defiantly, in fact the small wins contribute massively to the bigger wins.

Regular check your progress and and definitely speak to more experienced colleagues, note what they do and ask advise when needed.

Alright auto fishes, I’m in the market for a entry level luxury car. Open to used or a lease. I don’t plan to use it as a daily driver, live in an HCOL. Only restriction is that I’d like to keep my monthly costs at no more than $600-$700/month (including insurance, financing / fees, etc; have a parking spot already). Doesn’t have to be a European badge. Thoughts?

Seeing how 401k’s, ira’s etc..are mostly based in stocks. What happens if we have another Great Depression and the stock market crash’s. Even if you have Real estate investments, if ppl can’t pay rent like with Corona, that’s not really helpful. So what are other ways in addition to those mentioned is there to help secure you into old age?

I’ve been told my company is changing my title from Associate Director of BD to Sales Executive. I’m concerned it reads like a title demotion. Is it just semantics?

For context, it’s a professional services firm, I’ve been there 3+years, and they gave a Sales Executive title to someone who just started 5mo ago.
