Content. Creativity. Connections.

Why HR Retail Is #1

For the New Era of Retail

Retail has gone through a disruption like no other which is why our content is curated by months of research with retail HR practitioners (your peers!) so that the sessions you attend at the event address real retailer pain points and challenges.

Join A True Community

Reconnect with old colleagues and make new connections! Our attendees stay in touch. Some exchange contact details (cell numbers, not business cards), while others visited each other’s offices for in-depth trainings. We’re the #1 community in retail HR for a reason.

See Innovation In Action

What makes for a constructive conference? Taking the insights you learned outside of a classroom setting and putting them to use in the real world. At the HR Retail store tours, we explore flagships and diverse in-store experiences to take a behind-the scenes look at Los Angeles top retailers.
