Who does your HR person actually go to when a decision falls outside written policy?
When's the last time you personally signed off on an HR call you weren't fully confident in?
If your HR person disagreed with your gut read on a hard call, would she feel safe saying so?
There's a question almost every CFO of a growing company avoids asking out loud — because asking it means admitting something uncomfortable.
The question is simple: "Should HR still report to me?"
Not "is my HR person doing a good job." Not "do I trust them." Just — structurally, on the org chart — does it still make sense for HR to sit under Finance at this size, at this stage, with this much on the line?
Today I want to walk through why that one structural question matters more than almost any other decision a growing company makes about HR — and why avoiding it is quietly costing more than most CFOs realize. We'll talk about why HR generalists end up stretched thin under a well-meaning boss who isn't equipped to mentor them, why that's nobody's fault, and what it actually looks like to fix it. Let's get into it.
