So talk to me a little bit about that.

Yeah.

That's where the phrase Band of Brothers comes from.

There are moments that can actually bring everyone together, and when you can frame it as, "This is really an experience that we will look back on with incredible pride." Um, often I think you...

when you ask someone to think of their company on its best day, and their team on their best day, and work on its best day, they'll rarely describe a boring day where not much happens and they roll in, meet friends for coffee, kinda get their paperwork done, and go home.

What they talk about is, "Things looked dire.

We pulled people into a room.

What can leaders do to lessen the technology-related fear that's seeped into many company cultures?

How would you, you know, as an HR person or in the space, give advice or recommendation to how a manager can prepare for the waves of PTO that may come in during the summer?

Well, the nice thing is we all know summer is coming.

Okay.

So you can plan in advance and make sure that there are plans put in and be really clear about policies.

I think that the clarity and the communication is really important.

But I actually think that this summer is going to present a unique opportunity for HR to play a strategic role and that we can be using summer to the advantage of the company to actually solve a problem that a lot of companies have right now.

How do you mean? I'm seeing, we actually are hearing a lot from companies that one of the big issues they have is how much they've invested in AI.

What if you have someone or an employee in the company who has used up all their PTO in the month of December? Would that be good use of PTO or would that be a PMO moment for you?
