Moving on from HR - what next?

Hi Amanda, adding to the excellent responses you have received you may want to consider staying within HR but in a project role, perhaps helping with implementing new HR systems.

I've worked with implementation teams for organisation-wide projects where my HR background helped with training the new users. Naturally, the final choice is yours however I wouldn't be inclined to shut the door on HR but simply keep it ajar just in case ... :-)
