At TCHRA, we understand that HR professionals are looking for new ways to help their organizations recover from the global economic challenges of 2009. We know that companies with the ability to adapt and change stand the best chance of climbing out of the recession as long as they can hold on to their best performers, keep their workforces engaged and continue to build on their best practices. But finding the right solutions can be challenging.

The TCHRA Spring Conference promises to offer an interactive and cost-effective way to tackle your organization's challenges with new ideas and shared experiences with other companies. TCHRA has invited the best of the best to come together to share the latest in new solutions to help organizations attract, motivate and retain the best talent. In addition, conference attendees will have the opportunity to build new relationships with peers and discover practical business tools they can begin using immediately to help their companies succeed.

TCHRA is proud to announce the launch of HR Leadership Circles as a new offering for TCHRA members. HR Leadership Circles is an interactive, collaborative, cohort group of HR professionals that will meet monthly for 12 months for two hours to share best practices, discuss current issues in the workplace and offer ideas and support for each other in a confidential, facilitator led discussion. The goal of HR Leadership Circles is to provide a close knit support system that will have positive impact on performance, work environments and professional lives.

HR Leadership Circles will provide a unique small group experience of no more than 12 participants. Participants will go through an application and interview process to ensure thoughtful and appropriate grouping, based on experience, career level and needs.

This synergistic experience will be facilitator led, but participant driven based on the needs and wants of the group. HR Leadership Circles are designed to build strong, trusting relationships within the group that will leverage the relationships built for personal and professional growth relevant for each member. Each group will participate in a variety of activities including small group discussions, presentations and will meet a variety of guest speakers from across the Twin Cities.
