Kelly Anderson ArticleTRANSCRIPT
In January, of 2008, Kelly Ander-
son of Impact Transportation So-
lutions founded the Society of
Recruiting and Retention Profes-
sionals. The SRRP provides a
forum for Recruiting and Reten-
tion Professionals to come to-
gether to Learn, Share, and
Network.
Anderson says “Most Managers
and Recruiters are totally busy
just trying to keep up with their
day to day responsibilities. They
don’t have time to sift through all
the industry publications and reg-
ulatory sites to stay informed of
changes, trends and forecasts.”
Members of the SRRP will benefit
from Anderson’s on-going re-
search and analysis.
Members have the opportunity to
“Learn” from the bi-monthly
newsletter, impact alerts, on-line
forums, and the ability to ask the
expert or all the members’ indus-
try questions. There are also
White Papers and Templates
available for downloading to help
with program implementation and
measurements.
Members can “Share” by partici-
pating in the on-line forums and
answering questions posed to all
members. They can also con-
tribute to the White Papers and
Templates.
Members can Network by attend-
ing SRRP functions conducted
around major truck shows and in-
dependent events like the Over
the Road and Impact Recruiting
and Retention Conference held
annually in Toronto and Calgary.
“My goal is that members of the
SRRP will be the most informed,
educated and productive recruit-
ing and retention professionals in
the industry. Moreover, they will
have the most up to date informa-
tion with which to make proactive
recruiting and retention decisions
rather than living in the reactive
mode that most companies are
stuck in due to a lack of foresight
perpetuated by heavy work loads”
Anderson says.

tion Professionals go to www.rrso-
