"I make no exaggeration when I say, CPG HR Collective has been a crucial element to my own growth and development these last few years. The monthly calls have become a haven for me to explore ideas, share best practices and learnings, and develop a genuine community with some of the most brilliant People + Culture leaders across multiple industries, areas of expertise, and countries (yes, we’re international)! Through the evolution of this group, I’ve made some cherished relationships and have access to data that’s increased my creativity, leading to better projects, perks, processes, and overall culture for the people I support."

"CPG HR Collective has given me the support of a team without the hassle of managing more headcount. The collective experiences of this tenured group of professionals is, by far, one of the most valuable resources I have had in my near decade of experience working in HR, Talent Acquisition and People & Culture roles. Not only does it serve as a safe space for those in our line of work to have an outlet for the emotional and cognitive work we do, but it also serves as an excellent source for actual solutions to a large variety of challenges we face day to day. Our brand has benefited greatly from the shared experiences and resources of this trusted group and will continue to be the first place I go to gut check any and all things people operations before discussing with my internal team."

“People Operations can sometimes be an isolating function – we manage and navigate uncomfortable or confidential information/situations and there isn’t always an internal outlet to go to. CPG HR Collective has been an amazing space to share the joys, challenges, headaches, wins, and all things People Ops with an amazing group of thought leaders. We are all on a mission to improve the work experience and in the spirit of achieving, everyone is eager and excited to collaborate."
Allie Jennings, VP People & Culture

“People teams are notoriously lean relative to the growing teams they support. CPG HR Collective has been an invaluable source of ideas, inspiration and kind-spirited humor. We talk about everything from benefits brokers to AI to plain old policy making, and it has been so helpful to chat & resource share with leaders who are really passionate about building people-first businesses.”

"Joining CPG HR Collective marked a pivotal moment in my HR startup journey, first as Head of People at Dr. Squatch and now as a Fractional HR Technology Consultant. Amidst rapid organizational growth and shifts, the collective served as an invaluable source of wisdom, inspiration, and practical advice, keeping us at the forefront of industry best practices and trends. Today, it remains a crucial component of my professional toolkit, providing insights into the CPG industry's evolving landscape and fostering a culture of shared growth and support. This community isn't just about staying updated; it's about collectively elevating the industry. For any HR leader looking to make a tangible impact, CPG HR Collective is where you belong."
