Human Resources Expertise (HRE)

HRE was founded in 2000 by Barbara and has supported many organisations, companies large and small and their employees to achieve great results and job satisfaction. Aimed at creating awareness, generating action, and facilitating learning and growth.

I created HRE in the spring of 2000 after a successful career in many HR positions in the Titan cement company, a Greek multinational with great human values at its centre.

I admired that company and up to now I think of my days there with great nostalgia, the challenging and rewarding experiences I had and especially the people with whom shared those precious moments.

My best memories come from the years in the factory in Patras and Kamari in Attika where I took my first steps in the HR profession as head of the HR department after one year of a thorough induction plan.

I had the unique chance to personally know emblematic people such Theodoros Papalexopoulos (the CEO then) and Nikos Analytis (the European orientation and impact of HR and the initiator of the human face of the company) – both passed away the last years and they belong in the pantheon of impactful Greek leaders.

I left the company knowing that I was completely capable to fly with my own wings and explode my creativity for the sake of new corporate environments and people.

Thanks to this remarkable corporation and its awesome people and of course enthusiasm and passion I left with a whole array of expertise and knowledge that serves me to this day.

Looking back I would never imagine how HRE would operate nowadays.

I had the drive, the expertise but I didn’t know the challenge and the journey I would go through to get to where we are today.

 

Through life’s continuous challenges we learn, adapt and grow.

That has been my life with HRE, especially the last year – a journey with wins, defeats, disappointments, amazing satisfaction and joy, big learnings, big changes. I would never be the woman I am now without this whole story of HRE’s evolution.

I am grateful for my clients who trusted in me during my first steps and who still trust me now as HRE transitions and in a new world that is struggling to find out its future and that of all of us in it. 

Nowadays we are facing a new milestone, we are at the beginning of a new era, one where we cant know for sure how it will plan out.

The VUCA world became VUCAER.

My only certainty is that uncertainty is her necessary sister in order to progress.

I am still the enthusiastic and passionate woman as the yang girl of my early professional steps but fortunately wiser -which means more focused, balanced and surrounded by the people I choose to have alongside me, the clients with whom I share the same vision and values for leading a more positive and ethical world starting with ourselves.

My Team and I are at your service either for you as a company or as an individual who is visioning more success and satisfaction.

Why

In order to enhance a sustainable and flourishing global society with “ethos”, “pathos” and “logos” towards a life with “eudemonia”.

According to ancient Greek philosophers:

“Ethos” = trust, commitment

“Pathos” = enthusiasm, empathy 

“Logos” = knowledge, the most up to date and efficient science and art of our industry (tools, methods, theories, and practices)

“Eudemonia” = a flourishing life, the challenging but joyful everyday journey to wisdom
