HR Most Influential Whitepaper

What does it mean to be influential in HR?

The term ‘influential’ is widely used but the research services team at Hult International Business School wanted to discover exactly what attributes led participants in the HR Most Influential survey to judge their nominees as influential.

What were those nominees actually saying and doing in practice?

Five key themes emerged from the nominees in the 2021 survey – new ways of thinking and acting, strong leadership, strong pandemic response, influence beyond the organization and people-centred focus.

This whitepaper explores those key themes of influence in HR and provides practical tips and techniques to help develop your own influencing style, with a particular focus on the hybrid world of work.
