“What does this person bring or add to our company?” - Heidi Hauver Traditionally, companies talk about cultural fit, and may look for linear, progressive career paths.  Today’s interview suggests we turn those traditions on their head and look at what people (including ourselves) can ADD to a particular context, vs. how they fit.  We also discuss what moving from transactional to transformational looks like in action.  My guest is Heidi Hauver who is currently the VP People Experience at Shinydocs, a technology scale up rethinking the way you find, understand, and action your data. Fairly new to her role, she is embracing the question “where do we want to evolve to?” She has won many awards and is an active volunteer in her community.    In this episode of Talent Management Truths, you’ll discover: 🍏 A reframe for “problems” 🍏 Career advice for new and mid-career HR professionals 🍏 Key insights for analyzing employee retention issues About Heidi Hauver:  Heidi partners with innovative companies to provide executive leadership in Human Resources.
