Newly appointed CHROs face a range of unique challenges from establishing credibility with employees to aligning priorities with the CEO. Increasingly, CHROs are expected to take on new roles outside of HR’s traditional scope. New CHROs struggle with their transition, not because they lack the skills or experience for the role but because they fail to build the right support network and properly plan for it.

This guide, written by the CHRO Global Leadership Board, can better prepare new CHROs for the challenges and opportunities of their first few months by detailing the experience and advice of tenured CHROs and senior HR leaders.

The guide includes resources to take action and details how to best: 

  • Work with the Board as a leader of human capital and culture 
  • Win in a dynamic talent landscape 
  • Inspire enterprise strategic change 
  • Lead through evolving stakeholder scenarios 
  • Act as a trusted advisor and coach to the C-suite and HR function
