I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Geraldine Butler-Wright, Founder and Chief People Officer of RorCas and about scaling tech companies. Geraldine is also the host of the excellent "People and Pioneers" podcast, where she explores the human side of innovation and success.

Here are other topics from our conversation:

• The Real Reputation of HR: HR shouldn’t be a cost center stuck pushing paperwork. Tie your people practices to business impact. Ask: How does this initiative move the needle and help us win? Move beyond red tape and become a true strategic partner.
• Intentionality & Company Culture: Great culture starts with intentionality. Don’t get lost in HR noise - focus on what really helps your business grow and brings people together with purpose, not just policies.
• Technology & High-Talent Teams: Small, high-talent teams powered by AI are the future. Automate admin, and double down on the moments only humans can deliver - quality service, empathy, and growth.
• Action & Iteration: Don’t aim for perfect. Launch your podcast or idea, even if it’s rough. Start with trusted people, keep learning, and let your work evolve. Action leads to clarity and confidence.
• Resilience & Entrepreneurship: Building a business is tough - don’t let setbacks stop you. Give yourself time to process, then move forward. Progress is about grit, focus, and staying ready to learn and adapt.

Geraldine’s insights are a must-read for anyone looking to make HR a driver of business growth rather than just a function.
