Now more than ever, HR professionals are essential to the growth and health of an organization. As the profession evolves, we are tasked to be multidimensional and ever more creative in our hiring practices, training and development, strategy, and other areas of influence. We are responsible for reaching inward in our organizations, and it is increasingly vital to reach outward to the next generation of HR leaders.
Strengthening others, according to the transformational leadership model of Kouzes and Posner, requires upfront investments in initiatives that develop people's competencies and foster their confidence. When it comes to guiding HR students and early-career professionals, SHRM and the SHRM Certification program are leading the charge.
HR professionals are encouraged to engage, identify and develop the next generation of HR leaders through mentorship, scholarships and grants, student participation, and other SHRM programs.
