Your post brought up a lot that has been weighing heavily on me. I was laid off as an L&D leader in May and the series and sequence of events has left me a little traumatized in a professional sense. I find myself laying blame at the feet of HR. The department that I have been embedded in for 15+ years. HR doesn’t typically have a seat at the table. When it does, it is the most wobbly seat and usually in a corner away for the table. I would like to see HR dismantled and embedded in the organization where the functions do have a firm seat at the table. Does that sound nuts?
Nice piece! Though I don't know that it counts as a lie, really. It's a presentational truth as opposed to a literal one. It's politics. Some folks bought the hype is all. But it was only ever hype.

It would only sound nuts if all that happened and we kept the same accounting system. That leads to it happening again and again.
