We’ve all been there. Trying to get your leadership team to take action before it’s too late. Doing your best to explain the severity of a situation.

Working tirelessly to get sign-off on proactive solutions as opposed to waiting until you’re called in for damage control. Only to get shot down each time.

No one likes having to scramble to fix an issue you knew was coming months ago. And no one likes having their expertise dismissed at every turn.

Tune in to hear from Ethena’s Chief People Officer, Melanie Naranjo, on how to shift the dynamics between HRBPs and their leadership teams. In this workshop, we’ll explore common pitfalls to avoid and actionable tips to get your leadership team to actually listen when you speak, recognize the value you bring to the table, and partner with you along the way.
