HR Peer Networking

Connecting Leaders Across Employee-Owned Companies

Are you a Human Resource professional looking to connect with others in the field? Join our HR Peer Network, where like-minded individuals come together to share insights, ideas, and strategies that strengthen employee ownership.

This group is all about collaboration - whether you’re brainstorming employee benefit solutions, exploring new HR initiatives, or simply connecting with others who understand the unique challenges and opportunities in HR today. With regular online meetings, you’ll gain fresh perspectives and expand your professional network, all while supporting your career growth.

Structure of the Peer Network

  • Employee engagement
  • New hire education
  • ESOP education
  • Performance management
  • Unique benefits of EO companies
  • EO policy and procedures
  • Incorporating new technologies into your workforce
  • Best practices for inclusive people management (remote workers, multi-locations, and overcoming language barriers)

The NCEO may share some output of this group with other NCEO members.
