What does it take to become an HR Director?
This webinar took a deep dive into professional development for HR leaders. In a field focused on supporting others, one clear message stood out: HR professionals must not only champion the value they bring but also prioritise their own development as they climb the career ladder.
Along with our very own Hannah Ford, Managing Director of Maru Search & Consultancy, the webinar brought together industry leaders including Lisa Haggar, Global People Director and LinkedIn’s “Queen of HR,” and Sam Eaton, Founder of MindAbility Consultancy Ltd.
How can you invest in your own careers as a HR?
The panel shared invaluable insights on investing in your own career and ensuring your skills are recognised and valued by employers. We were proud to sponsor this engaging and thought-provoking discussion at Maru Search & Consultancy.
A key takeaway included the importance of gaining diverse experience and how storytelling can powerfully showcase an HR professional’s impact on businesses. The panel also highlighted the need for collaboration over competition, stressing that HR professionals should support one another.
Perhaps most importantly, the conversation touched on the often emotionally demanding nature of HR roles. The panelists emphasised the need for self-care and staying true to your instincts and ideas as you navigate your career path. By doing so, you can shape the career you want, on your own terms.
At Maru, we’re passionate about helping HR professionals achieve these heights and thrive in their leadership journeys.
