🏡 Kim Rohrer says that, unfortunately, the director level can be where many HR careers go to die. She mentions the challenge is finding the confidence and empowerment to break free from the daily chaos. Even VPs with small teams often find themselves too entrenched in day-to-day issues to focus on strategic initiatives. They get stuck in employee relations, payroll, compensation reviews, and communication crises, making it hard to find time for cross-functional meetings or to advocate for their strategic goals. Many mid-career professionals feel lost, stuck in the same roles for years without a clear path to advancement. They feel they have to leave their current company to progress but can't be strategic because they're too bogged down by daily tasks. The PeakHR team aims to help these individuals see the forest beyond the trees. Part of what will help them climb out of the day-to-day grind is learning how to say no. It's harder now than ever, with challenges like COVID-19, the return-to-office debate, and global compensation variability. Additionally, there are issues like climate change, economic downturns, and social justice concerns. Our generation had it tough, but the next generation faces even more challenges. She says we need to do everything we can to support them, throw them a lifeline, and help pull them out of the hole. 🔔 Get more insights like this delivered directly to your inbox.
