The HR Social Hour Half Hour Podcast — 117: Episode 80 – Jon & Wendy talk to Khalilah Olokunola

We’re joined by Khalilah “KO” Olokunola, VP of Human Resources for TRU Colors Brewing in Wilmington, NC.  We talk about KO’s journey from losing her name to the Department of Corrections to becoming an HR professional, the importance of building the right culture for an organization, and KO offers ideas on how other HR practitioners can work through resistance when it comes to “second chance” hiring.
