Bold claims and shocking revelations - that's what this episode is all about. Brace yourself as we scrutinize Miss Manners’ overstepping her expertise to provide baffling HR advice, leading to a heated discussion on why professionals must stick to their forte. Witness the truth behind her erroneous advice on video conference etiquette and her disastrous suggestions on dealing with an overly perfumed co-worker. An entertaining but insightful reminder - Miss Manners, keep to your lane!

The conversation takes a turn as we delve into the profound significance of constructive feedback in the workplace, drawing inspiration from a recent outburst by Nick Saban. Distinguishing between getting chewed out and receiving constructive criticism, we explore how HR professionals navigate through situations when employees misinterpret feedback, shedding light on the need for self-awareness. As the year draws to a close, we touch upon the common yet stressful HR end-of-year updates, sprinkling in some thoughtful reflections. Tune in, learn, laugh, and think with us in this exciting episode!
