President's Message

The New Orleans, Louisiana, Society for Human Resources Management (NOLA SHRM) is excited to resume in person monthly meetings for 2023!  The last few years have presented challenges and opportunities for us to learn to be adaptable.  As we enter 2023, there are a few changes we are making for this year that we wanted to share.

First, the board now has new email addresses!  Each Board member now has an @nolashrm.org email address.  We hope that this will make it easier to communicate with our members and other community organizations by simplifying the email addresses. Please update your contacts for our board members.

Second, increasing food costs have become a challenge for us to offer our members a meeting they are excited to attend.  In order to provide you with a meeting location that meets our expectations, we are increasing the monthly meeting fee to $40 per month. While we are seeing an increase here, we will maintain the annual membership fees at $50 for all membership types (national and non-national SHRM members) and $25 for students.

Lastly, we are excited to announce a return to The Cannery for our 2023 monthly Chapter meetings!  We have been working diligently to ensure that we have a space that meets the needs of our members that is conveniently located, has ample parking, and delicious food!  We are looking forward to another year of successful, in-person, monthly chapter meetings!

We are looking forward to offering you a year of networking, learning, and most of all fun with your Human Resources colleagues.

Sincerely,

Adrienne Roth, MBA, SHRM-SCP

Our volunteer NOLA SHRM board of directors work together to help provide the best resources for each and every member through our events.  Our monthly meetings and professional development opportunities provide both SHRM and HRCI credits for our certified members seeking credits for recertification.  NOLA SHRM events are planned to provide current, significant human resource knowledge to address challenges that impact people and organizations in the Greater New Orleans Region.

We are always excited about new volunteers, so if you are looking for a way to get more involved and build your connections, please reach out at any time at President@nolashrm.org
