• Attending HR-related conferences and sharing learnings.  
• Creating and delivering relevant training and development for HR practitioners.
• Co-creating approaches/policies on HR issues, such as workforce planning, inclusion, mental health, international recruitment.
• Co-creating HR processes.
• Delivering webinars on pressing issues for HR practitioners.
