In this episode of The HR Club, host Shivani Pandey sits down with Elisa Garn — a dynamic HR leader with two decades of experience — to unpack the 3 Faces of HR: the Traffic Cop, the City Planner, and the Mayor.
This metaphor isn’t just fun — it’s a powerful way to reflect on your HR role today and the kind of leader you aspire to be.
🎙️ Topics we explore:
• What these 3 HR personas mean for your career
• Generalist vs. Specialist — where should you start?
• Building influence with leadership (and when to push back)
• Networking as a long-term HR career advantage
• How to stay strategic when you’re the only HR in the room
Elisa also shares her bold, unconventional job search story — and what it taught her about branding and opportunity.
If you’re a founding HR hire, an HRBP aiming for the next level, or just figuring it all out — this episode is for you.
