Your SHRM Southeast Regional Team

Did you know that as an SHRM volunteer leader, you have three SHRM staff members to assist you?  The role of the SHRM Southeast Regional Team is to work directly with volunteer leaders to help them in their roles.  The region is supported by three SHRM staff members whose work is dedicated solely to the SHRM members and volunteer leaders in the Southeast.
