What HR Professionals like you have to say:

Because most leaders don't know how to set — or communicate — expectations effectively.  

But when expectations are done right? Teams can truly shoot for the moon. (Get all these astronauts now?)   

Lucky for us, there are clear, proven strategies for setting and communicating expectations to drive organizational success — and HR & People leaders like you have the opportunity to lead the charge.

Why do so many leaders complain to HR about team performance?

Welcome to my space, the Safe Space

Funny thing about HR...we don't have our own HR.

There isn't a dedicated space or person we can bring our questions to most times since we're too busy having to answer them all ourselves.

I've been thinking about a place HR professionals can be their whole authentic selves. In all the different ways we feel, but can't always show up in: frustrated, angry, confused, nervous...even uninspired.

We celebrate our team's accomplishments big and small (and we love it), but how do we bring that same joy back to us in our workday?

That's why I'm building this community and calling it Safe Space.

I want this community to help you get through your hardest Monday. And celebrate you on your biggest Fridays.

I hope you'll join me and hundreds of your new "work" besties.

XOXO,

I Hate It Here wins the Inspiring Resource of the Year Award at Transform!

I Hate It Here just won the Industry Mobilizer: Inspiring Resource of the Year Award at Transform! 🥳 This isn't just a win for me though—it's a win for all of us in this amazing community we've nurtured together.

From day one, I Hate It Here has been all about carving out a space for us HR and People Ops folks who are, frankly, just fed up. Fed up with the never-ending issues, the burnout, and feeling like we're always in crisis mode.

And now Safe Space has become this incredible corner of the internet where we can all be candid, share our battles, and ignite that spark of inspiration and support we all desperately need.

So in the spirit of gratitude, you can join the Safe Space community for $100 off with code TRANSFORM100 for a limited time!

There's truly never been a better time to join and receive the support that makes a real difference for People leaders…and we’re only getting started!

Embarking on this journey, my goal was to share insights and advice on crafting companies and cultures that aren't just tolerable but are genuinely loved. Knowing how much this community resonates with each of you fills my heart. 💖

This award is so much more than just an accolade. It's a testament to our mission to revolutionize the way we work, introducing new and often unheard voices into every work culture conversation.

Let's keep pushing the limits of what HR can be. I'm so grateful for each and every one of you joining me on this ride. Let's keep this momentum going! 🚀

XOXO,

Hebba
