This week on The HR Morning Show, we’re diving deep into the heart of the workforce—with big conversations about dignity, technology, and the future of hiring.

Brian Glover joins us to champion the “Blue-Collar Renaissance,” sharing how his company Previewed is reshaping perceptions of skilled trades. From NC Idea grant wins to bold storytelling, he’s on a mission to prepare Gen Z for hands-on careers in an AI-driven economy.

Adam Bernard gets real about what it means to be let go with compassion. After a viral post about his layoff from GM, he’s become a fierce advocate for human-centered offboarding, empathetic leadership, and building a better EVP in a post-layoff world.

Chris Russell, the voice behind RecTech Media, gives us a crash course in the evolving world of HR tech—from ATS pitfalls to metrics that matter. If you’ve ever wondered how to balance automation with authenticity, this one’s for you.

Plus: The Global Report, The Weather Report, red shoes, and our race to 2,000 followers. Follow us, comment, and don’t forget—we’re live every Tuesday.
