300+ Women Leaders in HR! These Women in HR Bring a Unique Blend of People & Strategic Skills.
Meet some of the women leaders in HR who are influencing positive changes to the future HR function
-
- August 26th, 2018
As you are probably aware from some of our other articles, we love to showcase lists of HR influencers for our readers to follow, such as our quarterly HR Gurus feature and 89+ HR Analytics Influencers post. This is largely because we believe it’s a great resource for business owners (and others working within the HR function) to gather ideas from the insights and articles they share, enabling followers to improve their own business practices.
However, on this occasion we decided to focus on the women leaders in HR as part of our mission to #PressforProgress, to forge positive visibility of the women in HR and celebrate their achievements of breaking barriers and influencing others in the HR sector.
“Companies that have women in leadership roles have traditionally fared better than their counterparts,” – The Benefit of More Women in Leadership Roles, www.womenofhr.com
Even though HR is known to be a female dominated profession, there’s still much room for improvement in the top C-suite positions, especially when it comes to closing the gender pay gap (something we will know in more detail following data received from the Equal Pay Day 2018 deadline).
With some huge HR challenges ahead, 2018 is said to be the break-through year for some of these issues to finally be tackled and it’s thanks to the strong female leaders that are empowering others to challenge these types of issues with their employers.
International Women’s Day 2018 campaign theme: #PressforProgress
The HR women in this list include numerous leaders across a number of different industries and organization sizes, who have a great wealth of experience in developing and executing strategies, managing talent and improving how HR is operating alongside regularly sharing articles, insights and open discussions into best practices.
