Episode 13 – Laura Harrison
Ever wondered what happens behind closed doors in HR when you submit a flexible working request?
This week on Leaders With Babies, Verena is joined by Laura Harrison, a former HR Director who has worked for organisations including PwC, EY, Aviva and CIPD.
Laura is a co-founder of the Human Change Agency and also a mentor on our Leaders Plus Fellowship Programme and is passionate about combining her love for her work with her love for her children.
In this candid discussion, Laura shares her top tips for building meaningful relationships at work, even if you dislike networking or simply don’t have the time to attend events.
Plus there’s brilliant advice on negotiating salary from a HR’s perspective, insight into what really happens behind closed doors in HR when a flexible working request comes through the door and how to ensure having children doesn’t stop your career progression.
Laura has generously offered a one-off mentoring session for one lucky Leaders With Babies listener. The next 10 people who download our Fellowship Application Pack and drop an email to Verena at verena@leadersplus.org will be entered into a prize draw to win. Full terms and conditions can be found here. Good luck!
