It's been a LONG time since I started a company. I forgot how much HARD WORK it is! The last two months have been amazing - it's felt like white water rafting! Long days, networking with old friends and associates, closing deals, losing deals and even preparing for an industry certification (yup - shoulda done that last one 5 years ago) have all been welcome experiences. I've felt stretched, exhilarated, exhausted, gratified, valued, listened to, ignored and just about as many emotions as there are on the wheel. Most of all, I've felt joy when I see relief on someone's face when they hear what i do and that I can help them. Wow - that feels good!
People get stressed when they think of Human Resources. They may think of a time when they had to "go talk to HR" for some trouble caused somewhere in the company. I don't feel stressed when I hear HR. I typically think EX (employee experiences) when I hear HR. I love creating positive employee experiences. I feel like I'm at my best when I can show empathy, express kindness and be direct all at the same time and help someone or a group get through a challenging experience. And that's just the "reactive stuff." There is a whole "proactive" world of HR too.
