Who made the list?
COVID-19 may be hampering our lives, but it won’t stop our celebrations.
Last night the Canadian HR Awards went virtual – hosting over 1,000 attendees from all across the world.
Making that transition from an in-person event to an online ceremony meant that HRD could incorporate so much more into the experience. From live panel discussions with globally recognized leaders, virtual peer-to-peer networking, and insightful acceptance speeches, Canadian HR Awards 2020 was a roaring success.
HRD Canada wants to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended, our special sponsors and - of course – the illustrious winners.
