In this episode, we had the pleasure of welcoming a special guest, Carrie O'Dell, the CHRO of the Group Health Cooperative (GHC) of South Central Wisconsin. She shared invaluable insights on tackling the staffing shortage through learning and development, growing staff from within, and managing sensitive HR situations.
Key Takeaways:
1. Prioritize internal staff development: GHC's Rising Leaders program focuses on developing leadership abilities in employees who don't have direct reports. This not only fosters a culture of internal growth but also boosts retention and recruitment efforts.
2. Manage challenging situations with empathy: Carrie shared a real-life human resources challenge and how they resolved it through mediation, thereby fostering respect and understanding among employees.
3. Foster a supportive HR environment: Shout out to the GHC HR department for their steadfast dedication, especially during the challenging times of the pandemic. The team's resilience and commitment should serve as an inspiration to other HR professionals.
Carrie's expertise and anecdotes made for an enlightening and thought-provoking conversation. We highly recommend giving it a listen.
If you're interested in learning innovative ways to address staffing challenges and foster a supportive work environment, this episode is a must-listen.
