Navigating Your Own Crisis or Grief While Supporting Others with Leanne Schultz
“HR is the cone of silence…you take the weight of a lot of people’s emotions.”
“When you are in a space in your own life, when things are piling up, as an HR professional who is perceived to have all the answers, where can you go?”
-Leanne Schultz
Have you had to deal with grief or personal crisis while still working and while people are still looking to you for support with their own tough situations? Today’s guest and I discuss how she is navigating her mom’s terminal illness while still supporting the employees depending on her.
My guest is Leanne Schultz. Leanne Schultz, CPHR, has worked in Human Resources for over 10 years in the K-12 education industry. She is currently the Director of Human Resources at West Point Grey Academy, an independent school located in Vancouver BC.
An avid believer in connection and sharing perspectives, Leanne spends a great deal of her time listening and asking questions. Gaining an understanding of the culture helps her to shape the systems and strategies in schools that allow education staff to be their best to help kids do their best.
Leanne and her family split their time between Vancouver and Vancouver Island.
