The curator behind the scenes
Founder
This platform wasn’t dreamed up in a boardroom.
It was born from something messier — exhaustion and conviction.
Exhaustion with shallow recognition, performative awards, and HR voices chosen for optics, not impact.
Conviction that the real work — the work of rebuilding trust, preventing burnout, fixing broken systems, and challenging power structures — deserves the spotlight.
Top10HRVoices.com is curated by Vasileios Ioannidis, a Cyprus-based Tectonic HR™ architect and Fractional CHRO, whose work through HackHR.org is reshaping how we think about people, systems, and scale.
This isn’t a ranking.
This isn’t PR.
This is a canon in the making — where visibility is earned, not granted.
One voice at a time.
