Recognize HR professionals under 35 transforming Canadian workplaces
Many young HR professionals are shaping how organizations operate—supporting leaders, guiding employees, and strengthening collaboration and high performance across teams. Even early in their careers, they are influencing culture, developing talent, and guiding day-to-day decision-making.
HRD Canada is proud to recognize these emerging HR leaders in Rising Stars 2026, honoring their impact in leading initiatives, developing talent, and advancing organizational performance.
We invite you to submit a nomination whether to showcase your own HR achievements or to highlight a colleague who is making an impact. Nominations are open until Friday, February 27.
HRD Rising Stars 2026 is proudly supported by Black HR Professionals of Canada.
Winners will be revealed on the website in June, demonstrating their influence and contributions to Canada’s HR landscape.
