How's the leadership on the HR team at Nike?
For the most part good. There is still a fair amount of disparity in what they say vs. what they do. For example they say "we don't want people spending hours and hours making perfect presentations to speak to us" yet if you bring in a "draft" or any imperfect version of a presentation they immediately pick it apart. And they fully expect a presentation in order to have a conversation. They do however I think genuinely care about the company and the success of the function, they just fail to see their impact on the inefficiencies.
