Antworten in Minuten, von Menschen, die da schon waren
You lead people in-house at a company in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland.
You've changed something real: how your company hires, develops people, or runs day to day.
Nominate yourself, or put forward someone whose work you've learned from.
A panel of founders and senior people leaders reads every nomination against the same four criteria.
What changed because of your work: retention, performance, how the culture actually feels.
New approaches to running people ops, including where AI genuinely helps.
You build strong teams, say the hard thing, and keep your ego out of it.
You share what you learn and the wider people community is better for it.
Die Leapsome Community bringt HR-Führungskräfte über verschiedene Kontaktpunkte hinweg zusammen, damit Sie sich vernetzen, lernen und weiterentwickeln können, so wie es für Sie am besten passt.
Submit a name, yours or a peer's, by September 21, 2026
