The HR Personalities awards recognize individual HR leaders who demonstrate exceptional vision, leadership, anticipation, and outcomes in steering their organization and workforce in the right direction and translating disruption into innovative people strategies.

When geopolitical disruption, economic turmoil, regulation and social constraints are regularly putting HR departments under pressure, HR leaders have a key role to play in fostering stability, setting new directions, establishing certainty, and creating new employee opportunities. Moreover, the best HR leaders make the difference by showing concrete facts and deliverables to ensure that workforce agility, productivity, trust and engagement is sustained in the long run and as a fundamental pillar of the organization.

The nominees for the Best HR Personalities are selected upon permanent tracking and analysis of tangible achievements in inspiring people strategies, innovative programs, and smart initiatives. Moreover, nominees must demonstrate clear leadership capabilities and an irreproachable reputation.

Winners will be revealed during the Awards ceremony on 27 March 2025.

The Jury is the guarantor of the strict appliance and respect of the rules, as well as the full objectivity of the decisions made. The Jury gathers a selection of HR and business experts carefully chosen for their knowledge and experience in human capital management, business governance and/or organizational effectiveness.

It is not possible to apply for the best HR People categories.

Entrants can only be submitted by Jury members, colleagues, peers or mentors and with evidence and rationale on skills, leadership, achievements and role model.
