About Us
People Strategy Collective (PSC) is a NYC area network of experienced business leaders and influencers.
Formerly known as NYHRPS (New York HR People & Strategy), PSC has a rich legacy spanning over 33 years, characterized by a steadfast focus on its members. Throughout its transformative journey from NYHRPS to PSC, the organization has consistently prioritized the needs of its members, ensuring that senior people professionals from the NYC area have a platform to learn and network. The history of the organization is a testament to its evolution and adaptability.
1991: The journey began with the formation of HR People & Strategy, with affiliates across North America, including NYHRPS.
2011: A significant change occurred when HRPS implemented national membership fees, allowing affiliates to choose their membership type, whether by individual member or group.
2016: The fee approach underwent another change, requiring that national membership would only be granted if 25% of the local affiliate members joined HRPS individually.
2020: HRPS merged into SHRM, leading to the creation of the North America HR Leadership Network (NAHRLN) by affiliates who did not join SHRM, with NYHRPS as a member.
2023: NYHRPS embarked on a journey of re-imagination, adopting a new name and vision to reflect the changing environment and expanded view of HR and HR adjacent positions in the workplace.
2024: The rebranding culminated in the birth of the People Strategy Collective, marking a new chapter in the organization's history.
Member-Centric Evolution: From its inception, we have placed the needs of our members at the forefront, shaping its programs and initiatives to serve the professional community effectively.
A Community of Growth: The organization's strength lies in its passionate board members and volunteers who have dedicated themselves to nurturing and expanding the community.
A Legacy of Learning and Networking: PSC has upheld the tradition of providing a space where seasoned professionals can engage in meaningful exchanges of knowledge and experiences, fostering a culture of continuous learning and professional development.
This commitment to its members has been the guiding principle throughout the organization's history. It's this enduring dedication that has allowed us to thrive and maintain relevance in, and influence the ever-evolving landscape of human resources and people strategy.
