HR & Leadership Development
Dig into pro bono ideas, resources, and examples from your fellow Taproot community members.
OVERVIEW
You’re a social impact leader—it’s okay if you’re not an HR expert too. Tap into HR policy and staff development resources.
Your people make your critical work possible. It’s vital to invest in their professional growth, ability to navigate change, job satisfaction, and engagement with your mission.
Volunteers with years of experience in human resources, DEIAB, and leadership development are a transformational capacity-strengthening asset.
