The Disconnection Crisis with Dr. Tracy Brower

foHRsight: HR, Leadership & the Future of Work ·

2026/03/05

Most HR leaders are chasing engagement scores. Very few are diagnosing loneliness. If performance feels flatter… if initiative is fading… if teams feel more transactional than connected, this episode explains why. In this conversation, Dr. Tracy Brower joins Naomi Titleman to unpack a truth many leaders feel but struggle to articulate: connection is not a “nice-to-have.” It is a structural driver of performance, initiative, retention, and fulfillment. They explore: The early warning signs of ...

2026/02/26

HR leaders are being asked to modernize faster than their organizations are ready for. New AI tools appear weekly, vendors promise transformation, and the pressure to “do something” keeps mounting. At the same time, most HR teams are still running complex, multi-step processes built for a very different era. In this episode, Josh Bersin helps cut through the noise by reframing what AI transformation actually looks like inside HR. Rather than chasing dozens of tools or fearing job displacement...

If you’re leading HR right now, it can feel like the ground is moving under your feet. You’re still expected to deliver flawless service, keep costs down, and manage risk, while your CEO quietly expects you to redesign the workforce for an AI era that’s arriving faster than most operating models can handle. In part one of this conversation with Josh Bersin, we explore a reframe that changes everything: AI isn’t just personal productivity. The real disruption is enterprise-level “super agents”...

2026/02/12

You can be brilliant, hardworking, and respected — and still feel like you’re running full-speed into an invisible wall. For many senior leaders (especially high-achieving women), the instinct is to push harder: take on more, prove more, hold more. But the higher you go, the more that strategy quietly limits influence, sponsorship, and sustainability. In this episode, we explore the tension HR leaders see every day: individuals are trying to thrive inside systems that weren’t designed for the...

foHRsight: HR, Leadership & the Future of Work ·

2026/02/05

Success in HR often comes with a hidden job: absorbing everyone else’s anxiety. You’re expected to soothe, steady, and “make it okay”, even when what people are feeling is a normal response to real pressure and uncertainty. In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr. David Rosmarin offers a practical reframe: not all anxiety is the same. Some anxiety does require professional support, but much of what shows up at work is an emotional signal, not a diagnosis. When leaders learn to recognize wha...

Why Entry-Level Jobs Need to Change, Not Disappear...

foHRsight: HR, Leadership & the Future of Work ·

2026/01/29

Entry-level roles are being labeled “obsolete.” But what if the real issue isn’t AI — it’s how we’ve designed early-career work for decades? In this episode of foHRsight, we explore why entry-level jobs aren’t going away, but passive, low-agency roles are. As AI takes over routine execution, new hires are being asked to show judgment, critical thinking, and maturity much earlier than before — often without the support or learning pathways to succeed. Dr. Miranda Rodak joins us to unpack what ...
