DeeAnn Palin doesn’t just fix companies — she rebuilds them from the inside out. In this episode, Craig Andrews talks with the founder and CEO of OnPoint Business Solutions about her radical journey from corporate HR skeptic to trusted strategic partner for CEOs.

Palin pulls back the curtain on toxic culture, ethical blind spots, and the cost of keeping the wrong people in leadership. She explains why HR should never be treated as a compliance function — and how, when done right, it becomes a company’s growth engine.

Drawing from her experience with brands like Motorola and the Phoenix Suns, Palin shares real-world examples of betrayal, ethical breakdowns, and executive blind spots. She makes the case for firing fast, leading with values, and building cultures that actually perform.

Her boldest leadership moment? Walking away from her largest client — and $1.3 million in savings — to protect her team. That’s not HR. That’s leadership.
