The people problems no one trained you for…
For HR Professionals and the Leaders Who Count on Them
The Leader Lab
One live, practical session a week — feedback, documentation, terminations, investigations, the conversations you're already having without a script. Built for HR and for the managers standing next to them. Walk in for the one you need. Skip the ones you don't.
Every week, live and virtual. Single sessions from $49.
You know how to document a conversation. Probably. You've never run a termination that didn't keep you up the night before it happened.
Maybe you're HR, and you're the one who has to say "we have to follow FMLA" to a room that just wants the employee back at their desk tomorrow. Maybe you're the manager who has to sit across from that employee, and nobody ever showed you how.
Either way, nobody sat you down and taught you this. You learned it live, on someone's actual career, the first time it happened.
This is the class neither of you got to take.
THE REAL PROBLEM
Real Situations. One Hour.
No Fluff.
Every session is built to stand alone — come for the one that's on your desk this month, not a curriculum you have to keep up with. Bring your leadership team; the room is built for HR and the leaders they support.

How it works…
Live and virtual
You leave with something
A document, a script, or a next step you can use before the week is over — not just notes.
One hour, every week, on Zoom. Ask your actual question in the room.
No pre-requisite
Each session is self-contained. Miss three months and walk back in without catching up on anything.

What HR Was Never Taught Podcast Host
I know what it’s like to be the most prepared person in the room who nobody listens to. I’ve been an HR department of one. I’ve navigated rooms where my expertise was visible until something went wrong and invisible the rest of the time.
I spent over 20 years in HR leadership with brands like General Dynamics and Volvo before I built the framework I wish someone had given me during my career. Not the certifications - I had those. The presence. The language. The ability to walk into a room and be heard before I ever said a word.
