“The CIPD Ireland HR Awards provide a platform for all of us to share good practice. For myself, the team and Permanent TSB they are inspiring and encourage us to stretch ourselves. Being an award winner has given us permission to push the boundaries and has inspired the confidence of our ExCo, Board and Leadership teams to back our HR Strategic approach.”
