"Promoting
Leadership Throughout the Organization
-- Be Innovative, Be Bold, Be Inclusive,
and Be Inspirational!"
Message from the Director: It
is my sincere pleasure to welcome you to the SHRM
Georgia State Council website. The SHRM Georgia State
Council serves more than 10,000 human resources professionals
within the State of Georgia who are members of the
Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), local
chapters and student affiliate chapters.
The SHRM Georgia State Council is an affiliate of the Society of Human Resource
Management (SHRM) -- the leading membership association for over 232,000 human
resources professionals, world-wide. The SHRM Georgia State Council was launched
in 1992 and directed by a number of outstanding volunteer leaders whose
collective contributions to the profession resulted in strong growth and excellent
programming throughout the State.
Be Bold, Be Inclusive,
and Be Inspirational! The State Council
has 54
Board members (which includes chapter
presidents), who bring a great deal of energy,
talent and proven success to the table. They represent
leading organizations throughout the state and
they are educators, consultants, legal professionals,
human resources practitioners, community leaders,
entrepreneurs, and business persons. I'm excited
about 2008, because you can expect a great deal
from this talented group of volunteer leaders!
The SHRM Georgia State Council serves 19 chapters and one satellite chapter that
are located in cities and counties throughout the State of Georgia. To promote
the human resources profession in 2008, the Council will:
• Be Innovative: Provide programs that meet
the needs of the Community, the Profession and the Professionals.
• Be Inclusive: Build partnering relationships
with organizations throughout the State to serve the professions, meet the needs
of employers, and provide resources and creative solutions to workplace issues.
• Be Bold: Provide Leadership and Development
Opportunities and Creative Best Practice Information, Tips and Techniques.
• Be Inspirational: Demonstrate Commitment
and Passion for the human resources professional and build mentoring relationships
to foster continued growth and development within the profession.
Our 19 chapters (two that are SHRM
2007 Pinnacle Award Recipients) provide tremendous
opportunities for human resources professionals to
develop their careers and build invaluable networking
relationships. We had over 50 percent of our chapters
receive recognition rewards from SHRM for outstanding
leadership and excellent programs and events. This
year, our Board members and chapter leadership professionals
will launch a number of impressive programs and hold
conferences and workshops that address critical workplace
issues. Please continue to visit our website and
have an opportunity to participate in the conferences,
workshops, networking opportunities, state-of-the-art
human resources practices, legal updates, and employment
opportunities throughout the year.
Sincerely,
Eunice M. Glover,
