Human Capital Leaders 2009


Overview

The Beacon Group conducts its Human Capital Leaders survey each year to get a feel for the state of Human Capital Management in Canada. The survey is distributed to thousands of HR and other business professionals, and the complete survey results are published nationally each year.

In 2009 we collected additional information in a new section of the survey that addresses the state of the Canadian economy. This is an area that we know is at the forefront of everyone's mind, and the results from this section of the survey are both interesting and valuable to our collective understanding of how we feel about our economic prospects over the coming year.
