LEADERS NEED TO BE CHEERLEADERS FOR THE NEW WAYS OF WORKING, AND EARLY ADOPTERS OF THE RESOURCES ORGANIZATIONS IMPLEMENT: ALAN MAY, HPE'S EVP, HR

A lan May is the Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer for Hewlett Packard Enterprise. In this role, Alan has worldwide responsibility for Hewlett Packard Enterprise development and organization effectiveness, benefits and compensation, staffing and retention, global inclusion and diversity, and HR processes and information management.

Prior to joining Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Alan worked at The Boeing Company for eight years, where he most recently led HR for the company’s Commercial Airplanes division. He was also head of HR for their Defense, Space & Security business and before that served as the company’s Vice President of Strategy, Compensation, and Benefits.

Before joining The Boeing Company, Alan was the Chief Talent and Human Resources Officer for Cerberus Capital Management, a leading private equity firm based in New York. Alan also held a number of senior HR and Business Integration roles over a 15-year career at PepsiCo, culminating with an assignment as Senior Vice President, Human Resources, for the rapidly growing Quaker, Tropicana, and Gatorade divisions.

Here are the excerpts.
