In this episode I welcome JP Elliot, HR and Talent Executive & Host of the Future of HR Podcast.
JP Elliott is a forward-thinking global human resources executive with extensive experience implementing human capital initiatives that drive business results, improve organizational performance, and elevate company culture.
He is a trusted business partner to C-level and senior management teams who can translate business needs into people strategies aligned with the enterprise priorities and P&L targets.
Over his career, JP has been fortunate to work across a broad spectrum of industries and organizations, many under going significant business and culture transformations. These experiences have shaped him into a versatile, pragmatic, and global leader who builds strong teams that deliver results.
Quote:
“I think we're always looking for shortcuts, but there isn't a shortcut. Most people aren't overnight successes, they're actually twenty year overnight successes. And when you start to hear their journeys and get to know them, you're like, wow, they've had setbacks. They've had these things happen, but they stayed focused on delivering results, understanding the business, building great relationships, and finding a way to differentiate themselves along the way.”
- JP Elliott
Summary:
JP’s podcast is one of my absolute favorite shows. With a constant roster of big time guests, including famous psychologists such as Jeffery Pfeffer and John Boudreau, seasoned HR leaders, and experts on careers and leadership JP’s show has served as a source of inspiration and career development for me. So I am really excited to have him as a guest on my show to talk about his own career and share all that he has learned from his travels as a PhD IO psychologist, HR leader, and podcast host.
I learned so much good stuff from our conversation and I am excited to provide my listeners access to practical, actionable insights about:
JP’s message of optimism, self-empowerment, and the importance of business acumen and practicality in the game of HR is valuable for anyone, but is especially relevant for IO psychologists with aspirations to navigate their way into HR leadership.
So listen and share liberally!
