“Chuck has deep HR subject matter knowledge. Over the ten years I worked with him, Chuck was always up for a challenge, eager to learn and do more. Facts, data and process driven, he worked to continuously improve the quality and customer satisfaction of his team’s output. His pragmatism allowed him to develop thoughtful and implementable plans which positively impacted company results. ”

“Chuck brings an excellent blend of strategic focus and execution excellence to his work, and has always linked HR initiatives to the organization. In addition to his great communication and interpersonal skills he is also pragmatic and energetic. I’ve remained in contact with him over the years and continue to be impressed by his contributions and accomplishments.”

“I reported to Chuck for a number of years. Even with our remote working arrangement, we developed a close working relationship. I enjoyed and benefited from Chuck’s expertise as well as his open and engaging manner. He is infectiously enthusiastic and focused on creating an environment for success. I will always remember the “Cup of Coffee” code we agreed which meant I needed something urgent and he would always call me (we had many virtual cups of coffee)! I would recommend Chuck as a consummate leader, totally committed to the good of the organization for which he works. A great team player as well as a really good guy!!!”

“Chuck brings a wealth of HR knowledge and experience to any organization he works for with an ability to think holistically about a process and what is needed to optimize it (taking time and costs out). He develops strong leaders and would be a great asset to any team he is on or organization he is a part of.”

“Is Leadership ‘art’ or ‘science’? Are you ‘born with it’ or do you ‘learn it’? If you watch Chuck Hopper lead, you can see that leadership is the best of both worlds. Chuck has an innate sense of leadership. He understands people; how to motivate, how to encourage, how to collaborate. As a Human Resource expert, he is clearly a leader in the field. As a corporate employee, he is a strategic thinker; he sees the ‘big picture’ and is an outstanding team player. Most of all he is a phenomenal leader of people.”

“Chuck is collaborative and always drives towards pragmatic solutions. He is an experienced leader, committed to developing and supporting people through feedback and developmental assignments. Chuck’s roles have provided him with extensive skills in process management, creating new disciplines, vendor management and leadership. In my experience, his ability to communicate a direction, establish a plan with relevant success measures and engage stakeholders have contributed to both his and his team’s successes.

I also saw Chuck interact with senior management & board members – he has a strong executive presence and is effectively persuasive. His presentations were always well thought out and crisp. He anticipated questions and was always prepared. In summary, a strong leader with a strong results-driven perspective.”
