Why HR Always Gets Blamed And How To Change It
Sep 2, 202646 minS2
Culture does not break because HR is weak. It breaks the moment leaders are allowed to ignore the values everyone else is expected to live. Rosie Allan , CHRO at Eurasia Group , argues for a tougher version of HR, one that speaks business instead of process and stays visible enough to be believed. She unpacks with David Cohen how to address bad behavior with a CEO in a way that actually lands, why the best CHROs keep a running log of concerns, and how to handle leaders who call values touchy-feely.

A seat at the table means nothing if nobody trusts what you say at it. David Cohen hosts HR leadership veteran Fernando Vescio , whose career spans commerce, finance, boards, CEOs, public and private companies, and even some rock & roll! He explains how HR earns credibility rather than assuming it. Fernando walks through how to stay visible and accessible while protecting confidentiality, how attrition, retention, surveys, and focus groups surface problems long before they surface on their own, and how to tell a senior leader the truth when they treat the company values as aspirational. ───────────────────────────────── CONNECT WITH FERNANDO VESCIO!

You did not make one big mistake. You made a hundred small ones that felt reasonable at the time — the hire who hit the numbers the wrong way, the behavior you overlooked because the quarter was tight, the standard you let slide once and never quite recovered. Culture does not collapse. It erodes. And by the time you notice it the people who cared most are already gone. David Cohen has spent his career helping companies like Michelin and Boehringer build cultures that actually hold — and his own path through ADHD, dyslexia, and cancer gives every lesson the weight of someone who has fought for what matters. What he shares about hiring for values, rewarding how people get results, and refusing to trade long-term identity for short-term numbers is the most important leadership conversation you are not having loudly enough inside your organization. Culture is not what you announce. It is what you allow. This episode shows you the difference. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔗 CONNECT WITH DAVID COHEN 🌐 Website: https://sagltd.com/ 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-s-cohen-0b0191/ 📚 Leadership Courage Series: Part 1 – Having the Courage to Live Your Values: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/part-one-having-courage-live-your-values-worth-david-s-cohen-ncdqc/ Part 2 – Building the Courage to Live Your Values: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/part-two-building-courage-live-your-values-david-s-cohen-lm7nc/ 📩 Email: david@sagltd.com ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
