full-day workshop with renowned leader sherry yellin

It is with great pride that we announce our upcoming workshop on Emotional Intelligence. The workshop will be facilitated by the renowned Sherry Yellin.  Dr. Yellin is the owner of The Learning Connection, Inc. and the CEO of TRL Resources, Inc.  For more than twenty years, she has worked with leaders within a variety of industries, public and private, domestic and international.  She combines her command of brain-based learning with her experience as a director, entrepreneur, and consultant to equip leaders to be extraordinary.  She is a certified coach through the International Coaching Federation and the Center for Credentialing Education.

This day-long retreat promises to be very productive and is a great culmination of our organization's 2018 fiscal year offerings. It will provide a nice break to our year-end obligations so that we can all go back to work feeling refreshed, re-energized, and equipped with tools to put into practice at the start of fiscal year 2019. 

This is a great opportunity for our community. It comes to you at no cost to your agency, and TSHRA will provide lunch and morning/afternoon snacks.

Participants will be provided a one-sheet with all the workshop information necessary to request credit consideration to HRCI and SHRM. 

Registration deadline is July 20, 2018.

We look forward to seeing the whole TSHRA community there!
The fine print: 
Registration is required for this free event, so RSVP as soon as you can. RSVP only if you plan on attending the whole day. Register by the deadline. Registration spots will go to voting members first, then to non-voting members, on a first-come/first-served basis. The sooner you register, the better the chance to guarantee your spot. Therefore, whether or not you are a voting member, register early! Although we do not anticipate this, any spots available after the deadline, will be offered to other state employees.

It's not too soon to start thinking about leadership

The association will have at least one open seat on the board next year.  We are calling on our fabulous membership to think about this leadership opportunity for the 2019 fiscal year. Time flies when you're having fun, and we have certainly enjoyed bringing our colleagues some interesting presenters and workshops this year.  We are hoping that one or several of you step up to the plate to continue serving our TSHRA members.  Per our constitution, Tracie will be stepping down as president at the close of this fiscal year. Our board will be calling upon you to volunteer, so please ask us any questions you may have about serving. We're here to help you help all of us!
