HR Leadership Development: Human Resource Informational Interview
January 16, 2024
2
I recently had the responsibility of holding an informational interview with a leader in human resources to learn more about what it takes to be a leader in the field. Since my ultimate objective is to advance to a senior position in the human resources department, I am expected to look into a real-life experience interviewing someone working in the sector. In order to make sure I would obtain useful information, I designed the interview so that I could learn about their leadership style and concentrate on obtaining data that would support me as I work toward being a leader. Laurie Newman, SPHR, SHRM-CP, was selected for an academic conversation about leadership positions in the Human Resources domain. Having working in the HR department for a number years, Laurie has had a number of jobs, including that of HR Officer for her company. Laurie is the Spotsylvania County Government’s Chief Human Resource Officer at the moment. Among Laurie’s duties is managing the day-to-day HR operations for the 1400 County employees and 15 departments. The Interview
To help Laurie decide on her career choice, certain questions were posed to her. Laurie was asked, “What is your current/past role in human resources?” What are the responsibilities of this role? What achievements brought you to this position? Laurie response: “
I am the Pennsylvania County Government’s CHRO at the moment. I am in charge of the daily HR operations for the 1400 County workers and the 15 departments. Getting my SHRM-CP and SPHR credentials was a fantastic catalyst.” (L. Newman)
After considering the responses, it was concluded that Laurie was the ideal person to talk to, so she was continued to be questioned, “What is leadership, in your opinion? Has your
3
function as a leader been affected by changes in business needs? In what way? How has the situation changed? Laurie response
: “The capacity to achieve a shared strategy or objective by optimizing both your own and those around you. According to her interpretation of leadership, the most significant development, she stated, was technology. HR platforms that have helped streamline the industry have taken us light years from where we have been functioning in the past. Additionally, there has been a general shift in how HR is viewed, with HR now being viewed as a valuable strategic partner.” (L. Newman) Subsequently, her leadership philosophy was delved into by asking, “What is your idea about leadership and additionally, as a human resources leader, what opportunities and challenges have you faced in terms of leadership?”
Laurie response: “
I think that having the role of manager, supervisor, or leader is a privilege, not a right. I believe that success may be achieved via setting a good example, upholding the highest standards of ethics at all times, remaining devoted to your organization and
those who help you, and giving it your all every day. The two largest obstacles were 1) running my own firm as the HR Director. I discovered that sometimes, no matter how hard you work, circumstances outside your control can damage your success. 2)The Covid pandemic. As a result,
we’ve developed an unprecedented ability to adapt and perform under pressure.” (L. Newman) Growth Opportunities: 1)
“I have held multiple fantastic managerial jobs, and with each one, I have gained a great deal of knowledge and developed in new ways. I feel like I am getting better and better at every job I have” (L. Newman)

Like virtually all the other HR-related activities at Charles Cleaning Centers, the company currently has no organized approach to interviewing job candidates. Store managers, who do almost all the hiring, have a few of their own favorite questions that they ask. But in the absence of any guidance from management, they all admit their interview performance leaves something to be desired. Similarly, Jim Charles himself is admittedly most comfortable dealing with what he calls the "nuts and bolts" machinery aspect of his business and has never felt particularly comfortable having to interview management or other job applicants. Jennifer is sure that this lack of formal interviewing practices, procedures, and training accounts for some of the employee turnover and theft problems. Therefore, she wants to do something to improve her company's performance in this important area.
Q1. In general, what can Jennifer do to improve her employee interviewing practices? Should she develop…
