Hannah Scheiffele - Hacking HR: Conquering New Work Challenges
A conversation with Hannah Scheiffele about New Work, HR strategy, OKRs, and what it takes to make modern collaboration clear without turning frameworks into empty process.
In this conversation
Hannah Scheiffele talks about New Work, HR strategy, and organizational development. The conversation focuses on how frameworks such as OKRs can help teams align, but only when they are adapted to the actual organization.
Hannah treats modern work as a design problem. Tools and frameworks are not enough; teams need clarity, rhythm, and a way to make collaboration work across remote and on-site settings.
Central question
How do teams use modern work frameworks without turning them into another layer of process?
What we cover
- How flexible work changes team dynamics and expectations.
- Why OKRs require adaptation rather than mechanical rollout.
- How HR and organizational development can support alignment without flattening context.
Guest background
Hannah Scheiffele works in organizational development and HR strategy. Her perspective is grounded in the practical challenge of making teams work better, not just naming new work concepts.
Things to listen for
- Where frameworks help teams create shared direction.
- Why personalization matters when applying organizational methods.
- How alignment can fail when the process becomes more visible than the work.
Frameworks in practice
Imported method
A framework is copied because it is popular, with little connection to the team's constraints.
Adapted system
The method is adjusted to the organization, made legible, and used to support decisions and collaboration.
