Aspiring Group HRD
Using the insights of current board-level HRD’s, we deliver a programme tailored to participants’ capability needs.
A great HR function builds people and organisational capability to deliver business strategy. CEOs expect their HR leaders to have functional expertise, but also require their HRD to be a commercially-focused business leader.

About this Programme
CRF, and our sister organisation Strategic Dimensions, have been listening to HRDs and CEOs for over 30 years about what they want from an effective HR leader and their function. This gives us a unique insight into the role of a ‘board-level HRD’ and what differentiates the great from the average.
Building on CRF’s exclusive research and experience, this programme delivers a highly-tailored learning experience. It will help experienced HR professionals take the next step in becoming a Group HRD, or become more effective having recently moved into the role. Participants will be able to shape the content of the course to suit their development requirements.
Who Should Attend?
This programme is suited to those looking to progress to Group HRD roles. Candidates will likely already be HRDs of a business unit, region or function or Centre of Excellence Leaders. It is also recommended for newly-appointed Group HRDs looking to increase their effectiveness, and many past attendees have been nominated as part of organisation succession planning.
There are limited enrolment slots, in order to facilitate a supportive learning environment. The 2024 cohort was comprised of five HR Directors, a Group Head of HR, and a Deputy HR Director.
