HR Famous Podcast

The HR Famous Podcast is a lively conversation dealing with the real-life craziness HR pros deal with every day! Think of this as your HR therapy session - sharing stories, strategies, and sometimes simply venting about a career we love, but one that makes us scream at the same time.

This pod is a safe place of conversation, laughs, arguments, and hope. So, grab a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and sit back and enjoy the real-world HR talk with a few of your peers.

Testimonials

Why would you hire Tim Sackett to headline your next event? Look no further than the prose of Eddie Vedder, who once mumbled the following words in the Pearl Jam standard, “Not For You“:

Restless soul, enjoy your youth… Like muhammad hits the truth… Can’t escape from the common rule… If you hate something, don’t you do it too…too…

If you love the common rule of meetings/conferences – boring speakers with 2500 words plastered on PowerPoint – Tim Sackett is not for you. Look away – he’s hideous if that’s what you’re looking for…

But, if you hate that standard and want a story with some strong challenging of the status quo delivered in a way that offends 1% of the audience and is memorable in a positive way to the other 99%, Tim Sackett is your guy. Que up the Pearl Jam (I suggest this cut) for his intro on stage and stop worrying that your next keynote is going to be boring. If you bring Tim in, it won’t be.

He’ll even drive up in a car like this.”
