The CHRO’s agenda has never been more daunting since the coronavirus pandemic erupted last year. Organizations have by and large met innumerable challenges in response to the outbreak —a feat impossible to achieve without the resilience shown by HR Leaders.
In the months since the outbreak, HR Leaders had to reimagine the basic tenets of an organization. With their profound and immediate changes, companies became more human, collaborative, and were successful in creating an employee experience that is meaningful.
We have witnessed a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shift to remote work, the unprecedented acceleration of automation and digitization, and the reallocation of resources to better organize for a post-pandemic future of work. Our Top CHROs of the Year are HR Leaders who have shown resilience, agility, and operational excellence in reflexively explaining “who we are” as an organization, “how we grow,” and “how we enhance employee experience.”
To usher in the future of work, these HR Leaders created solutions that are creative, adaptable, and robust. For our January 2022 issue, we spoke with CHROs about their success in rolling our initiatives that helped strengthen their organization’s ability to drive change in leadership excellence, culture, and employee experience.
It was a difficult decision to narrow down to just eight people, as there are so many influential HR leaders. These are the men and women who helped propel a transformation by facilitating monumental changes to make their companies future-ready. Below are the thought-provoking CHROs we selected, whom you should definitely be following on LinkedIn.
