I recently returned to work full-time as an HR Management Associate after spending last summer being a MAP intern.

The HR Management Associate Program

The MAP is a program comprised of 3 rotations in various HR disciplines, and 2 more in a business area outside of HR. I worked on a project within HP’s Talent & Learning organization, which handles everything from instructional learning design and management of our HP Brain Candy social learning platform to talent and performance management.

A few days ago, HP signed the Business Statement for Transgender Equality to support the rights of our transgender employees, customers, partners, and community.

To enlarge this conversation, we spoke to Catherine Kohler, a commit planner who’s a transgender woman in transition.
