Enlightening Leadership Excellence
in Life Sciences HR
Empowering Collaboration to Stay Ahead of People Trends
A Private Network for Life Sciences CHROs
Unlock the Power of HR Leadership
In the fast-paced life sciences industry where there is rapid growth, a hyper competitive landscape, and the need to ensure regulatory compliance, to name a few key challenges, balancing the demands of your business with the needs of your people means CHROs are more stretched than ever before.
LEAP CHRO Searchlight is a strategic, industry-specific network composed only of life sciences HR Leaders at the top of their organizations’ HR pillar, struggling with traditional thinkers, old workplace habits and struggling to grow and scale.
Built by life sciences CHROs for life sciences CHROs, the network’s purpose is to allow you to plug into a ready-made network collaborating to make better decisions with more confidence, gain rapid answers to the most pressing questions, and move forward faster to build bigger, better biopharma businesses.
SHRM Accreditation
LEAP CHRO Searchlight membership is recognized by SHRM
and offers SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP professional development credits

Business critical conversations
Virtual cornerstone meetings
We facilitate structured, action-oriented, CHRO-focused bi-monthly meetings for members to learn what the industry is doing, giving them inspiration and confidence in their decisions.
Each high-impact 90-minute meeting takes place virtually on Zoom. The meeting agenda is carefully curated to focus on the topics and critical challenges requested by Searchlight members.
Membership is represented by one internal champion with strategic oversight over their HR program to ensure that each discussion is high-value, high-impact, and delivers actionable takeaways for each member to take back to their organization.

Innovation doesn’t happen in isolation
Searchlight makes meaningful progress
“We’re all consumed 100 hours a week with the demands of our roles. We just don’t have time to individually build relationships with peers. But one of the reasons Searchlight brings me so much value is because it allows me to work with brilliant people to tackle shared challenges together. I love that I can now pick up the phone and talk to my new network about what’s on my mind whenever I need to.”
“Our long term flexwork strategy has been directly influenced by what we’ve heard our peers doing and thinking about in our Searchlight meetings, and at an even more granular level, we’ve picked up a number of examples of really useful specific language that we’ve heard others coining and applied it directly into our organization. It’s been so useful at such a challenging time for all of us.”
“Searchlight gives me confidence that I’m heading in the right direction. I can use this network to affirm I’m on track and course correct where I need to. And just like a GPS, you don’t look at it the whole time when you’re driving, you check it from time to time. I don’t need a hundred thousand data points. I need the top thinkers in my industry, and those top thinkers have gravitated towards Searchlight.”
