Dear CIC SHRM,

As we begin a new year, I am both honored and grateful to step into the role as Chapter President. It’s a privilege to serve such a committed group of HR professionals. I want to thank our outgoing President, Tami Ireland, for her time, dedication and impact. She has helped lay a strong foundation that we can continue to build upon.

Our chapter has long been a place where we can find connection, learning and service and this year we will focus on how we continue to strengthen those things together as an HR community. Our primary goal for the year ahead is to deepen engagement with our current members. We want every member to feel connected, energized, and excited about sharing their knowledge, growing their connections, and serving our communities. To support this primary goal, look for ways we will be expanding our opportunities for networking, discussion and connection as well as supporting and serving our local communities through the lens of our HR expertise.

Your ideas, voices and participation as CIC SHRM member is essential to making this a successful and fulfilling year for our chapter. I encourage you to look for ways to stay involved and engaged with the chapter and help us shape what’s next for CIC SHRM together.

Thank you for your continued commitment to our chapter and to the HR profession. I look forward to learning alongside you and serving with you in the year ahead.

Best,

Angela
