Who We Are
The HR Leadership Forum is a network of experts who provide ideas, information and resources to assist senior decision-makers in linking people strategies to business outcomes.

We are a not-for-profit volunteer organization chartered to meet the needs of  public, private, government and nonprofit organizations of all sizes.

In 2008, the Pittsburgh Human Resource Planning Society became the HR Leadership Forum of Western Pennsylvania. Why the name change?

Many companies today believe that what differentiates them from their competition is their people. If that is true, then human resources professionals must be effective leaders in their organizations. That means more that planning. It means anticipating marketplace and workforce change, continual learning, collaborating to identify optimal solutions, embracing change and leading others to make change happen effectively.

Today we must plan and act much more quickly than ever before. To be effective in today's world, we must be willing to explore, share and learn from others. We need a forum to encourage and support these types of behaviors. We need to be more than planners, functional experts and managers: we must be effective leaders in our organizations; we must make more timely recommendations and decisions than ever before. The HR Leadership Forum  is where leaders in human resources stay at the top of their game. It’s where organizations come for HR leadership ideas.

Mission
The mission of the HR Leadership Forum is to improve the performance of organizations. HR Leadership Forum members focus on the application of strategic human resource management and leadership practices. Our members represent public, private, government and nonprofit organizations of all sizes.

The HR Leadership Forum will accomplish our mission by:

  • Identifying innovative practical solutions linked to business outcomes

  • Identifying emergent trends and their strategic implications

  • Serving as resources and mentors to each other and our region’s organizations
