Now that we’re into the second month of 2011, it’s time for the Mobile
SHRM chapter activities to get into full gear. There are so many great
ways to get involved with the organization. Doing so will help you
meet new people, build relationships with people you already know,
acquire new skills and make the most of your membership.
Is this your year to get more involved? Here are just a few of the
many opportunities:
- Conference Committee: Even though the conference
isn’t until November 18, getting prepared for the event is a year-round
event. Would you like to help promote the event to vendors, sponsors
and attendees? What to get involved in the silent auction? Interested
in facility logistics? Contact Candice Swiger at conference@mobileshrm.org to join the committee.
- Member Appreciation Event: Last year’s member
appreciation event was such a hit that another one is in the
works for the spring or summer. If you have a flair for event planning,
contact Becky Lovgren at doorprizes@mobileshrm.org.
- College Relations: The University of South Alabama is seeking assistance from the
Mobile SHRM membership with job shadowing and internship opportunities
for students who want to break into the field of HR. Contact
Dr. Marjorie Icenogle at collegerelations@mobileshrm.org to find
out how your company can participate.
- Audio Visual: Do you have an interest
in audio visual and sound equipment? If you’d like to get involved
in working with A/V at the meetings, Carlton Spinks would love
to hear from you. Contact him at av@mobileshrm.org.
These are just a few ideas of the many ways you can get more involved
with the chapter. I truly hope you take advantage of opportunities
to actively engage with Mobile SHRM. This organization provides outstanding
opportunities for social networking and professional development at
regular meetings and other events – but the benefits are exponential
for those who take their involvement to the next level. Remember –
with any professional organization, the benefits you reap tend to be
directly related to the efforts you put forth!
Regards,
Mary White, Chapter President

2011 Meeting Sponsorships!
Would you like to have an opportunity to market your
company’s products or services to a captive audience of HR
professionals?
Sponsor a Mobile Society for Human
Resource Management chapter meeting and you’ll have an exclusive
opportunity to do just that! For only $400, sponsors may
have an exhibit near the check-in table, place literature
on each table, and have an opportunity to speak briefly about
their companies during the meeting agenda. What could be
better than that?
Limited opportunities are available, as there can be only one
sponsor for each regular meeting.
Contact Tom Woodford at pres-elect@mshrm.org or
251-378-2211 to reserve your month! |
