Description
In this episode, Dr. I. David Daniels will speak with Sandra Jean, a Human Resource Executive and a Licensed Attorney. She is also the author of the best-selling book “Human Resources: A Practical Guide on Effective Workplace Management” and founder of the Jean Consulting Group.
Too often, when HR professionals are consulted about workers’ mental and emotional health, it is because there is a problem that has occurred or a worker is having some mental or emotional issue that people leaders are unable to address. Attorneys are consulted when an employee is threatening or has filed a legal action or an employer has taken an employment action that the worker sees as not in their interest. Based on her Labor and Employment Attorney practice and experience as a Human Resources Executive, Sandra Jean has been involved at both ends of these conversations, including representing labor unions and companies in human resource-related legal matters and negotiations.
Ms. Jean will share several tips regarding how an organization can be psychologically safer for workers while at the same time being productive and profitable for employers by focusing on the relationship between the organotin and the human being that is a part of the organization. Both goals are achievable before she is asked to defend or initiate legal action to achieve the same ends.
