Adrianne Court and her family have committed to supporting the next wave of business leaders at UNT through the college’s HR Internship Award Program.

Thanks to their initial generosity in 2022, the family enabled one deserving student to receive internship credit towards their HR degree plan in Fall 2023. And now, that generosity, and impact, has been multiplied with an additional investment in the program—helping to pave the way for the success of many more future HR professionals.

As a seasoned HR executive herself, Court recognizes the interconnected relationship between experienced professionals and those embarking on their careers.

“It is truly rewarding to be part of the educational and professional journey of the next generation of HR professionals. We believe in the importance of supporting internship programs as they play a pivotal role in shaping the future of aspiring professionals... We are proud to be a part of this community,” said Court.

After the Court’s family renewed their commitment this past month, two $1,000 HR Internship Awards will now be granted each semester to undergraduate students during the upcoming spring, summer, and fall semesters. This extended generosity translates into increased opportunities for aspiring HR professionals to acquire invaluable experience and knowledge, propelling them forward in their academic and professional pursuits.

Beyond financial contributions, Court’s wealth of knowledge and experience makes her an invaluable resource for students benefiting from the HR Internship Award.

Court’s distinguished career, adorned with executive roles and accolades, showcases her steadfast commitment to successfully shaping the HR industry. As the current chief HR officer at Tealium and a recognized top CHRO, her influence has transformed organizations, earning them distinctions such as "Best Places to Work," "Best Places for Leadership" and "Best Workplace Cultures."

Her impact extends beyond her professional achievements, too. She actively contributes to numerous boards, serves as a sought-after speaker and discussion leader, and she is currently co-authoring two books, one exploring the transformative impact of corporate culture and the other providing a practical guide to combat loneliness. Additionally, her co-authorship of the best-selling books "Bravely She Flies" and "Bravely She Flies, Too" further solidifies her imprint on the world of HR and leadership.
