Founded, curated, and led ‘by payroll and for payroll, ‘Pi’ is the world’s premier virtual forum dedicated to fostering a deeper understanding of the critical payroll profession and empowering its current and future leaders to shape its next chapter. We believe payroll professionals are the most essential workers on the planet and, until now, have lacked an ecosystem dedicated to advancing their eminence and influence.

Whether you're a payroll leader, HR professional, payroll stakeholder, or simply someone with a keen interest in how payroll and its leaders impact business outcomes, the Pi ecosystem is designed to be your go-to resource for exchanging ideas and insights with other current and aspiring payroll executives to advance your leadership skills and influence for impact.

The Pi forum is an open and interactive space where payroll leaders can engage in thoughtful discussions, ask questions, and share tips and experiences to elevate their presence and impact as strategic leaders in their organizations.

 

The payroll community is among the strongest, most inclusive, and supportive practitioner communities in any profession.  The Pi forum virtualizes that community through a collaborative approach that ensures that everyone, from beginners entering the profession to seasoned payroll professionals with years of experience, can benefit from the collective knowledge of our uniquely powerful community.

Payroll Influences and the Pi forum is dedicated and open to any and every payroll professional, leader, and stakeholder who aspires to advance their leadership influence within their organizations and elevate leaders to an executive-level presence for strategic impact.

Payroll Influences offers complimentary content in the form of blogs, research, podcasts, and thought leadership resources across a range of topics, including HR and payroll technology product updates and insights, emerging trends, challenges, and solutions, transformation, emerging leadership concepts, and much more!
