The purpose of the Leadership & Talent section is to equip employment social enterprises with guidance, practical tips, and best practices for building and maintaining effective internal human resources (HR) functions. While managing and cultivating talent is critical for the long-term success of any organization, it may be particularly important for employment social enterprises, where the quality of the relationship between the professional staff and the participant workforce will likely determine whether the organization fulfills its mission.

The materials in this section cover a range of HR topics and are hopefully useful both for organizations starting out on developing an HR function, as well as those looking to improve or enhance a specific area. Our content emphasizes ways to proactively embed diversity, equity, and inclusion principles into all HR practices and policies to ensure that all employees feel supported and valued while at work.
