HR & OB department? We had personel, then we had Human Resources, we’ve now got HR & OB? Whatever does that stand for?
No wonder you’re hard to deal with, no-one knows who you are.
Hi Sarah,
I have amended the blog post so that it’s clear that this is the HR and OB department within the Business School. I believe that BU’s HR department is still called ‘HR’.
Kind regards,
Jo
