Welcome to another Listener Q&A with The Team at HR Stories! Today's episode goes into these questions:

1. Should supervisors working in the field be exempt or non-exempt? What questions should we ask?
2. When you try to offload responsibilities from Directors to Managers but the Directors continue to step in and say how things should be handled, how do you get them to let go and let the Managers work?
3. How do you get Operation Directors to align with HR goals?
4. When you jump into an HR role but the former HR director didn’t know what they were doing, where do you start?
