Top SchoolHelder Figueiredo is a seasoned Human Resources leader with over 25 years of experience shaping people-centered cultures across multinational organisations and challenging cross-cultural contexts. Currently serving as HR Director at RodoCargo and Atlantic, Vice President of APG and a guest lecturer at multiple executive education programs, he specializes in transforming underperforming teams by coaching autonomy, defending talent, and creating conditions for sustained commitment rather than compliance. His hands-on delivery spans HR digital transformation, international mobility, SAP SuccessFactors implementations and people analytics, underpinned by executive roles at Trivalor and Sodexo. A PhD candidate in Human Resources Development Policies, Helder combines academic rigour with pragmatic change leadership and a consistent track record of rebuilding trust where traditional levers failed. Notably, he prefers leading in a way people can feel—prioritizing psychological safety and real ownership over metrics-driven pressure.
