In this episode of The HR Leader Podcast, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Human Leadership Lab founder and chief executive May Samali about the evolving nature of leadership, leaders' cognisance of the need for human-centred approaches, whether workers retain the same reverence for leaders as in years gone by, the headline challenges facing leaders right now, the need to be more holistic in managing staff, balancing short-term issues against taking a longer-term approach to the business, and what HR's role is in all of this. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/hr-leader-podcast-network-5582686/episodes/shifting-leadership-expectations-in-a-changing-working-world/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/hr-leader-podcast-network-5582686/shifting-leadership-expectations-in-a-changing-working-world.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
