Expertise unleashed: The
HR Professionals of GAIL

The champions at the heart of inclusive change

Central to the Global Alliance for Inclusive
Leadership (GAIL), our HR Professionals aren't just
leaders in their respective fields but also advocates
for change.

Our HR Professionals are a group of individuals who possess immense knowledge and expertise in
the area of inclusion and belonging. Imagine what’s possible when they come together to elevate
inclusive conversations for women in the workplace.

Each plays a pivotal role in championing inclusion and belonging as they make recommendations,
provide ideas and insights, lead conversations, and actively participate in critical tasks such as
choosing the worthy winners of our prestigious Canada’s Most Powerful Women: Top 100 Awards and
our Canadian Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Awards.
