Leading HR Influencers

Engagedly's 2024 Top 100 HR Influencers

Human Resources is a growing field that is beginning to expand and inspire change across various companies and job types. Engagedly is excited to announce its eight annual list of Top 100 HR Influencers.

Top 100 HR Influencer 2024

2024 | 2023 | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | 2018 | 2017

Methodology

In order to generate this list, we considered around 400+ different professionals within the various sectors of HR. Individuals were selected through a data-driven process that analyzed and scored success in five defining categories. Scores were based on an individuals’ regency, frequency, and relevance in relation to their social media presences, speaking and writing engagements, and innovative contributions to the field. Diversity of the individual was also taken into account so as to ensure that people of all backgrounds were included in the list.

Points to consider

We want to emphasize that this list is not in ranking form. Individuals have been grouped based on the type of work that they have most notably been involved with. These categories are in no way intended to minimize the entirety of these influencers’ careers. HR is an industry that is growing in all directions, and it is difficult to perfectly formulate a process that will recognize all HR professionals that are doing credible work. If you know someone who you think should be featured for next year, please nominate them through our website, as we do consider the names that are received there.
