Challenges of the CPO (and solutions!)

This week, the co-founders of Disruptive HR (and ex-CPOs themselves), Lucy Adams and Karen Moran, tackle the unique challenges faced by Chief People Officers (CPOs). They explore the scepticism often directed at CPOs and the pressure to conform to a metrics-heavy approach. They talk about the benefits of embracing a human-centric design for HR strategies and how shifting from rigid, traditional processes to adaptable, employee-centred practices, can enhance the CPO’s impact and credibility.

They discuss the challenges for CPOs of balancing operational tasks with strategic thinking amidst constant meetings and compliance demands. They share strategies to alleviate these pressures, such as empowering managers with self-management tools and adopting a product management approach for HR teams. Above all, the episode aims to equip CPOs with practical solutions to streamline their focus and enhance their influence within their organizations.
