About the KHCC
Our Mission
The Kellogg Human Capital Club works to educate all Kellogg students on human capital ideas, and industry trends, and serves to support students looking to build a career in the rapidly-growing and evolving field.
Our activities include:
Education: We educate students—whether focused on human capital specific careers, or human capital as a part of a general management role—on the latest human capital trends and ideas. We bring in industry leading speakers from human capital consulting firms, people analytics teams, chief human resources offices, and everything in-between to provide access to a broad range of human capital topics.
Career support: We equip students for human capital careers, through our Industry Preparation Groups (IPGs) for both Human Resources and Human Capital Consulting roles. We help prepare you from resume reviews through interview prep for on- and off-campus human capital positions.
Community-building: We work to foster a community of Kellogg alumni and current students interested in the human capital field and creating long-term relationships.
Collaboration: We regularly collaborate with other clubs on Human Capital events – broadening exposure to HC issues to all those who will be involved in people issues in their future careers.
The KHCC is here to help you understand the variety of opportunities in human capital roles, help you prepare for those internships and full-time roles, and keep you up-to-date on human capital trends to make you a better manager in any role post-Kellogg! Please join the club for information on upcoming activities, or email humancapital-club@kellogg.northwestern.edu with questions or ideas.

The Art of Influence: How Leaders Drive Change | Practical Workshop
From AI transformation to M&A integration, what does it take to turn strategic change into business results? As organizations navigate AI adoption, mergers and acquisitions, and evolving business models, even the strongest strategies can fall short without effective change leadership. Success requires aligning stakeholders, navigating resistance, and building the buy-in needed to execute change. Join the Kellogg People Strategy Club for The Art of Influence: How Leaders Drive Change, an interactive, hands-on workshop with Dr. Terrence Roche. Through practical frameworks, stakeholder mapping, and small-group exercises, you'll explore how leaders build support for organizational change, navigate competing priorities, and connect people and organizational decisions to business outcomes. Whether you're pursuing consulting, strategy, general management, or people leadership, you'll gain practical tools to approach complex organizational challenges. Dr. Terrence Roche brings over 20 years of executive leadership experience across business strategy, operations, and organizational transformation. He previously served as Senior Vice President of Strategy & Operations at Kellen Company, where he led enterprise strategy and post-acquisition integration, and as Vice President of Professional Services at Start Early, where he scaled workforce solutions nationwide. Today, he is a Lecturer in Learning & Organizational Change at Northwestern University and Founder of Green Rock Innovation, combining academic expertise with hands-on experience leading organizational change. -

Small Group Lunch with Professor LT Zhang
People Strategy Club is excited to launch our new Small Group Lunch Series with Kellogg professors! Join us for informal conversations with faculty who teach and research topics related to people, leadership, and organizations. These lunches are a great opportunity to connect with professors in a casual setting, learn more about their courses and research, and hear their perspectives on emerging trends in the field. For this lunch, come enjoy an engaging conversation with Professor LT Zhang! Space is limited to keep the discussion intimate and interactive. ---------- LT Zhang is an Associate Professor of Management & Organizations at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, where he teaches "Leading at Scale: Power, Design, and Influence in Organizations." As a sociologist, his research examines how innovation and technological change reshape work, occupations, and organizational structures. His work contributes to contemporary discussions about the future of work by drawing on historical contexts and employing a combination of econometric and computational methods. His research explores topics such as the impact of emerging technologies on incumbent workers, the role of codified knowledge in transforming occupations, and the influence of new organizational forms on work and management. Professor Zhang is affiliated with Northwestern’s Center for Economic History and the Northwestern Institute on Complex Systems. Prior to joining Kellogg, he was an Assistant Professor at Harvard Business School. He earned his Ph.D. in Sociology from Harvard University in 2018 and his B.S. in Mathematics from Stanford University in 2011.
