On 13 June Personnel Today will be publishing its annual list of the most influential and powerful people in HR – the Personnel Today Top 40 Power Players.
To make sure we don’t miss out on any potential power players, we would like you to tell us who you think has had the most impact on people management over the past year. All you have to do is provide a name and organisation and one line on why they deserve to be on the list.
Please e-mail your suggestions to [email protected]
