SummaryWhat happens when a designer leads HR? Michael Bodziner, Co–Chief Human Resources Officer at Gensler—the global architecture and design firm with 56 offices and 6,400 people—shares how a 40-year career from intern to studio director to CHRO shaped a people-first approach that boosts retention and performance. Michael explains how he translated retail customer-experience thinking into an employee-experience playbook, why “don’t let fear be the deciding factor” guided his leap into HR, and how focusing on strengths—“aces and spaces”—builds higher-performing teams. He details the shift from transactional HR to strategic partnership, Gensler’s co-leadership model (including his pairing with co-CHRO Larissa Gray to balance culture with compliance), and how that structure sustained the firm through COVID. Michael also offers a pragmatic view on AI: use it to automate the busywork so HR can spend time coaching leaders, improving the team member experience, and retaining top talent. Expect candid lessons on designing culture at scale, knowing your people deeply, and making courageous career moves.Timestamps[00:45] – Guest intro: 40-year journey from intern to co-CHRO at a global firm[03:38] – From designer to studio director: putting people first and reducing turnover[06:01] – The Starbucks ask: moving into HR—and “don’t let fear be the deciding factor”[09:57] – Rebuilding HR around the team member experience to compete for talent[12:42] – Taking the CHRO role weeks before COVID and leading people strategy[13:11] – Co-leadership at Gensler: pairing culture with compliance (with co-CHRO Larissa Gray)[18:37] – “Aces and spaces”: strengths-led development and managers who truly know their people[24:23] – Practical AI: automating transactions so HR can be a strategic partnerTakeaways- Map the employee experience like a customer journey to improve engagement and retention.- Adopt co-leadership to balance external growth with internal culture, and strategy with compliance.- Coach managers to know each person’s aspirations and align work to strengths.- Build teams around “aces and spaces”—pair strengths to cover gaps and raise performance.- Use AI to handle transactional HR (e.g., routine comms, admin) and free time for strategic work.- Make courageous career moves—don’t let fear be the deciding factor.
SummaryHow do you keep a largely frontline workforce engaged across 135 dealerships and 12 states—while embracing the rise of side hustles? Jules Gianneschi, Chief Human Resources Officer at America’s Car‑Mart (a publicly traded, integrated auto sales and finance company based in Rogers, AR), shares how her team builds a purpose-led culture around a clear mission: keeping customers on the road. Jules explains why normalizing second jobs can actually improve retention, how whole‑health wellness (physical, mental, and financial) drives performance, and why authenticity at work reduces “energy tax” and boosts productivity. She breaks down Car‑Mart’s “boomerang” culture, the associate value proposition built from employee interviews, and the power of local leadership in rural communities where reliable transportation changes lives. Jules also offers two simple HR rituals—Hour of Power and Hallway Huddles—that upskill teams and keep HR connected to the business.

She details two structural levers for engagement: a new, peer-elected Staff Council that represents employees worldwide and a Culture Council advancing DEI with data from annual engagement surveys.

She also outlines why annual pay equity snapshots fall short, and how EDF now runs equity analyses on-demand for real transparency.

She reveals Bright Star’s new employer brand pillars—connection at our core, flexibility that fits your life, and care that starts within—and why the first 90 days are the retention tipping point.

Catch It at a Simmer: BambooHR’s Vanessa Brulotte on Employee Relations, Clear Communication, and AI in HRSummaryWhen employees only reach HR at “eruption,” it’s already too late. Vanessa Brulotte, Employee Relations Partner at BambooHR, shares how to build a trusted, centralized ER function that catches issues at a simmer—so leaders and employees can collaborate toward resolution instead of crisis. With nine years at BambooHR across TA, HR, and ER, Vanessa brings practical frameworks for fairness and consistency, from creating visible “safe spaces” in a hybrid environment to setting shared expectations and alignment before projects go off the rails. She unpacks why communication fails even with good intent, how to avoid ruinous empathy, and simple habits—like recap notes—that prevent misinterpretation (cue the Amelia Bedelia lesson). Vanessa also dives into AI’s role in HR today: use it to scale clarity and prep tough conversations (think SBI-F talk tracks), ask it to push back, and put guardrails in place—never as legal counsel. The episode closes with a reminder many HR pros need: protect your own wellbeing, set boundaries, and show up with calm when it matters most.Timestamps[00:45] – Vanessa’s path at BambooHR and why she built a centralized ER function[02:22] – Fairness, consistency, and creating a trusted “safe space” for employees[05:20] – Hybrid visibility: why showing up onsite builds access and credibility[07:58] – The real reason communication fails—and how to catch issues at a simmer[08:27] – Alignment before action: roles, decisions, contributors, and deadlines[11:00] – High vs. low context communication (and the Amelia Bedelia effect)[12:37] – Recap to prevent rework: simple practices that keep teams aligned[14:12] – AI in HR: scaling clarity, SBI-F talk tracks, and asking for pushback[16:09] – Guardrails, not legal advice: using AI responsibly[19:30] – HR wellbeing: boundaries, mental health, and showing up with calmTakeaways- Build trust early so issues surface at a simmer—long before crisis and escalation.- Drive clarity: align on who decides, who is responsible, who contributes, and by when.- Over-communicate with intent—use recap notes, confirm “what good looks like,” and avoid ruinous empathy.- Prepare difficult conversations with the SBI-F framework; practice and plan language in advance.- Use AI as a thought partner to draft talk tracks and challenge your thinking—ask it to play devil’s advocate.- Set and socialize AI guardrails; never treat AI outputs as legal counsel.- Protect your own capacity: limit doomscrolling, set boundaries, and create pauses to bring calm to charged moments.SponsorAllVoices brings all your employee relations work together in one place.

From Reorg to Results: Snap Finance’s CHRO on Org Design, AI Adoption, and the People Strategy EdgeSummaryIf your org chart changes but execution doesn’t, you’re missing the “connective tissue.” Todd Mayhew, Chief Human Resources Officer at Snap Finance, shares how he’s guiding a fintech at an inflection point—from a transaction-based model to a consumer platform—by aligning structure, process, and behavior. Five months into the role, Todd is reorganizing around centers of excellence, using RACIs to create clarity, and applying the Galbraith Star Model to ensure strategy, structure, process, rewards, and people move in lockstep. A USC doctorate in Organizational Change & Leadership gives him the language and evidence to influence CFOs and engineers with data, not just theory. Todd also reframes AI as an HR discipline: you onboard, coach, and measure it like a teammate, model adoption as a leader, and spotlight internal wins to drive behavior change.

Tanya Moore, Chief People Officer at West Monroe, shares how she’s evolving HR from an administrative function to a strategic architect of business outcomes.
