If people are a company’s greatest asset, then CHROs have a lot riding on their shoulders. From delivering a winning culture to introducing fresh recruitment strategies, they are stewards and strategists who are responsible for a company’s talent and performance blueprint -all of which drives the business forward. To honor the contributions of these incredible leaders, HRO Today is proud to present the annual CHRO and HRD of the Year Awards.
