Change your assumptions - your customers are an asset. For instance, show empathy by caring and listening to answers. Also, create a boundary of work around creating value for customers. Furthermore, effective diagnosis into our organisations will allow us the benefit of a more holistic approach to solving its issues and creating the values we wish to instil. Certainly, confidence comes from taking steps into the unknown. We must be pioneers in our field. Therefore, take risks, find solutions, and the confidence to take action will follow.   BEST MOMENTS 'If you've got the data, and you've asked questions, then you should feel that you can make confident suggestions' 'HR is pivotal to helping us move through this' 'We have to lead by empathy, experience and emotion' 'Our confidence comes not from answers, but from asking questions that move the discussion forward'   VALUABLE RESOURCES The HR Uprising Podcast | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher   Host of The HR Uprising Podcast, Lucinda Carney, is also the founder and CEO of Actus Software, where you can find additional free HR Resources: https://actus.co.uk/free-performance-management-resources/ Introducing the new Actus Academy- your on-demand learning platform!
