Our Mission
In a world in which we work longer, harder, and faster than ever before, the Human Resource Leadership Forum (HRLF) exists to stimulate, refresh, engage, connect and build the leadership of the Human Resources profession in New England.
HRLF is the Learning Community for Advanced HR practitioners who understand the link between effective leadership and learning. Through affiliation with HRLF, senior-level HR professionals stay apprised of current issues, research, trends, and opportunities bearing on the field of human resource leadership. HRLF offers its members opportunities to become more effective leaders and to strengthen their impact on organizations they support through sharing of ideas, experiences, knowledge and interactive meetings with best-in-class thought leaders from a broad range of disciplines.
Providing consistent, high-quality professional development opportunities for HR leaders has made HRLF the premier Human Resources association for senior-level HR professionals in New England. It offers nothing short of the opportunity for its members
to stay connected with the personal passion that underlies their enthusiasm for and commitment to the Human Resources profession.

HRLF

HRLF recognizes that there is an on-going need for HR professionals to manage their careers..both members interested in proactively developing their careers, as well as members in transition. The Member Services Committee provides focus for HRLF members to share career resources within the HRLF community and with other affiliated professional groups to build career management skills, access expertise and resources, network, and inform members of potential job opportunities.
Member Services offerings fall into four categories, a quarterly Career Readiness Breakfast, an ongoing Book Discussion Group,
a forum at which to attend locally hosted broadcasts of regularly-scheduled HRPS Teleseminars™ with fellow HRLF colleagues, and a Career Transition Group.
Our

Resource Planning Society (HRPS), which provides a focus and forum
for professional activities to over 5,000 human resource practitioners
around the world. Our members have access to global HR best practices
