🗣️ “Our HR director is a key decision-maker in the business. If I thought we’d benefit from new software, I’d have a conversation with her before I ever put anything in writing.” - Darren Vann, head of HR, Paultons Park Depending on the size, setup and HR headcount of your organisation, the person who has identified the initial need for new software might not be the senior HR lead.
