 Message from PSC Co-Presidents: January 2026

Welcome back, People Strategy Collective community, and Happy New Year!

We’re excited to kick off 2026 with you and begin a year filled with fresh ideas, deeper connections, and programs designed to help you expand your knowledge and your network. Our 2026 calendar is already taking shape, so stay tuned!

There are So Many Ways to Participate in PSC! 

1. Members: Bring a Guest to an Event

We love meeting new people.  Invite a guest to the next PSC event - many events welcome guests free of charge or at the member rate.

  Note: An individual may attend one event as a guest. 

2. Become a Sponsor - Why Sponsoring Matters

If your organization wants visibility with an audience of senior business leaders and people strategists - including but not limited to HR, Talent, People, and OD leaders - PSC sponsorship is a powerful platform. Sponsors gain:

  • Brand exposure across a highly engaged professional community 
  • Access to senior decision-makers
  • Opportunities to showcase thought leadership

Please reach out to us if you or your company are interested in sponsoring PSC in 2026 - or if you can offer space or sponsor connections

PSC thrives because of our volunteers - and our volunteers thrive by building deeper connections within an active community of doers.
