What's a piece of HR conventional wisdom you've stopped believing?
Mine: 'exit interviews reveal the real reason people leave.' In my experience people are diplomatic right up until they're gone, and the real reason comes out from their manager, much later, if at all.

'High performers always know they're high performers.' Absolutely not true and I've seen it hurt people.
