Hey there,

I swear I blinked sometime in June and BOOM, suddenly we’re here, dusting glitter off our 2025 dreams and pretending we’re not shocked by how fast this year flew.

But here’s the good news: if December snuck up on you, you’re not alone. And if you’re wondering how to wrap this year feeling more inspired than exhausted. Well, hi, hello, welcome to The Shape of Work Community

We’re a wild, warm, wickedly smart community of 25,000+ HR folks — CHROs, people leaders, culture architects, rewards nerds, talent whisperers, you name it — who love practical wisdom, honest conversations, and zero-fluff insights you can actually use.

🚀 And speaking of things worth bragging about… HR Playbook 5.0 is HERE

This December, we’re going big like “new frameworks in your notebook, new clarity in your brain, and new bragging rights on LinkedIn” big.

HR Playbook 5.0 is where the real practitioners talk real shop:

• No corporate jargon.

• No recycled keynote wisdom.

• No “HR should have a seat at the table” speeches (we’ve been at the table).

Just honest, tactical, Monday-morning-ready frameworks from leaders who’ve built, broken, rebuilt and scaled systems across India, APAC, and the Middle East.

🛫 We’re coming to YOUR city — bring the coffee, bring the chaos!

Every city has its own vibe, and guess what? We’re tapping into all of them.
Because nothing beats meeting HR folks who get it — the work, the jokes, the trauma, the joy.

🎉 December Meetups

December is our grand finale — the ultimate HR celebration before the year wraps. We’re ending 2025 on a high, with meetups that are part knowledge exchange, part community reunion, and all heart. Expect big ideas, bigger laughs, and the kind of connections that make Monday mornings feel exciting again.
