"Train people well enough so they can leave. Treat them well enough so they don't want to," is one of my favorite quotes and sums up how I feel about Human Resources. We are typically the first and last person you see in your employment lifecycle. We are responsbile for first and last impressions and everything in between to be sure you are challenged, developing, and engaged in your workplace!
