The Birth of Human Resources

Think about this: You're sitting across from someone whose job title literally includes "Human Resources." Like you're coal or steel to be managed. And this person might decide your entire career trajectory.
Only 23% of CEOs consider the HR function strategic, and employee trust in HR hovers around 40%. So how did the department that's supposed to champion human potential become synonymous with bureaucracy and compliance?

The origin story involves a tragic company town disaster, two world wars, and a brilliant woman whose revolutionary ideas about human flourishing got completely lost along the way.

I also asked AI to reimagine HR from scratch for 2025. The responses were provocative.
