are always careful to ensure that our attendees

out the city that will enhance your conference

experience!

As always, and for your safety and peace

of mind, we urge you to book your housing

the atmosphere that SHRM created at the conference. It was great to be

able to apply the knowledge I learned about creating a healthy workplace

culture to our workplace culture initiative at my organization. I was

able to learn so much and everyone in my company was able to benefit

from the knowledge I brought back.”
