Attending interviews for the first HR Champion Awards back in 2016… one of the nominees referred to HR as the “moral compass of an organisation”. That description stayed in my mind.

Recent weeks have shown that HR Leaders will be called up on more and more to help define the culture of their organisations - are they inclusive, wellbeing focussed ? How do they create diverse leadership teams and foster development for all ? What is their stance on employer brand, & talent acquisition ? How do they engage employees and guide them through the changes of AI & hybrid work models ? What is their stance on community engagement, CSR, Sustainability?

If your organisation has pondered and addressed those questions successfully in 2024 - you should consider nominating your team for a HR Champion Award, organised this year in association with
and supported by (Silver Sponsor), .ie , .55 and

I resist having favourite topics for my HR events (it would be akin to having a favourite child !!), but I am really excited about the topic for the HR Directors’ Dinner next week.

By-stander Intervention - how to start the conversation, train for it, support it with a framework and really create a safe speak-up culture (in work, sports, society) is so timely.

Almost full booked - but I will happily make room for 3 or 4 more ! Enquiries [email protected]
