The HR Requires a Capt. Jack Sparrow to Lead It

Is your organization hunting for an HR professional who is successful, pedigreed, and influential from an Ivy League institution? It is common to assume that an HR leader as one who is outgoing, success-driven and well-ensconced at the top. However, this bias in staffing leadership roles is disappearing fast over the past couple of years or so. Organizations are no longer looking for a Fulbright scholar, rather they are interested in hiring someone who is just half as bright and can lead from where they are: someone who would do the thinking as they go about their work; someone like Capt. Jack Sparrow!
