Are you a Local Chapter Leader? Are you looking for a way to Network with leaders from other chapters in your region? If so, Kentucky SHRM is excited to be hosting Three Regional Council Meetings in the Fall. The purpose of the Regional Council Meetings is to allow our chapter leaders to get together, in a convenient location, to do the following:

Join us at the premier conference for HR professionals in the Kentucky. Receive practical information that can be applied to the real issues you face every day on the job. Gain the HR knowledge crucial to the success of your career and your organization.

At the KYSHRM Conference, Trasee Whitaker, CHRO for Masonic Communities Kentucky, was named the winner of the 2017 Lyle Hanna Spirit Award for Volunteer Service. In this conversation, Trasee discusses her role as an HR leader and active volunteer, and what it means to be at the pinnacle. HR leaders are playing a significant role in every level of decision making within an organization and influencing innovation and growth. You have a close working relationship with your executive team at Masonic Communities Kentucky. Tell us about how you developed those relationships.

Each year, as National Volunteer Week approaches in April, we think about how to express our gratitude to our 6,000+ SHRM Volunteer Leaders. Each year, this task seems more difficult than the year before.

Lyle Hanna, President and CEO of Hanna Resource Group, will be hosting “The CHRO Perspective: How the Best Make It Happen!” at the National SHRM conference this year. The conference will be June 17-20 in Chicago.
