Building a “One Team” Mentality with Anu Pires

Original production by Thrive HR Exchange
Hosted by Matthew Chapman, Co-creator of Thrive HR Exchange and Founder of ChapmanCG


Anu Pires, SVP HR at Paulig, describes the role of HR as “bringing structure through crisis”. There has never been a more important time for HR professionals to facilitate open communication and to exercise empathy and encouragement.

As a family-owned and global food business, Paulig had a reputation for providing exceptional benefits to its employees. When part of the business took a hit from the pandemic, the company strategically redeployed its employees to support other business areas.

Hear Anu’s advice on:

  • Resource management, including deploying employees to where support is most needed.

  • Keeping employees engaged and resilient through change.

  • Collaborating on product innovations and customer experiences.
