Advice to Management

HR need to follow it's own advice. We don't always go by the rules that we would set other functions. It can feel really disappointing that we don't live by our words that we insist other areas of the business do. Exec team generally need more gumption, decisions often feel too cautious and risk adverse which can feel very frustrating as an employee. You say you want to be totally honest and transparent but your communications don't read that way.
