Austin SHRM is looking for educators and learning facilitators that are passionate about advancing leadership in HR.
Our theme for the 2024 Annual Conference is "Fulfilling HR's Purpose: Making the Impossible, Possible." If your topic aligns with this theme and is relevant to the HR community, we want to hear from you!
Please note: We do not accept submissions for keynote speakers. Rather, the committee and the Board work within various networks year-round to identify potential keynotes based on member feedback as well as trending topics and themes in Human Resources. Considerations such as web presence, social media engagement, marketability, references, and depth of organizational leadership expertise are driving factors.
Our purpose is to provide our local HR & Business community with a meaningful networking and professional development experience.
We do this by striving to accomplish the following goals:
It takes a village to make the conference happen! For Austin SHRM Members that choose to serve, it will likely be your best learning experience ever. Major components of the conference are listed below. Typically, each component is led by one Chair with several others who assist them prior to and during the conference. Some members opt to do what they do best, others prefer to do something outside of their comfort zone. Either way, if there is an area of interest to you, we will make room in whatever capacity you choose!
