Talking with HR Mentors: Jack Milligan

The HX Podcast with Stacie Baird

I'm so excited to talk to my first guest in this series! I sat down with Jack W. Milligan, a certified Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR), and as a Global Professional in Human Resources (GPHR), who I met in 2003. I was taking a class taught by Jack, who throughout his career certified over 1,400 HR professionals.

Jack is an inspiring leader in the HR space, and he shares his background, experience, and what led to his passion to do this for his career that included a major portion in Arizona with ITT.

We talk about some of the most significant changes in HR over the last 25 years, and I ask him about his advice for someone coming into this HR world today.

Jack talks about the most important thing to have as an HR professional, learning from good and bad bosses, and the values to look for in those you call mentors.

We talk about his book, Make More Money!, which talks about negotiating salary and so much more. He discusses the three promises that he makes in the book that are critical to negotiating for yourself.
