The next meeting of the Society for Human Resource Management will go cerebral, as it attempts to educate its members on brain research and how it relates to human resources.

The Society has invited Geri Willis to speak on the subject, having over 40 years experience in the field of education—22-plus internationally—and has conducted numerous workshops on brain research.

A few of the items Ms. Willis will address are; multiple intelligences, type indicators, such as Myers Briggs and how it relates to the work place, techniques used for training and development and how to retain knowledge, giving employees choices empowers them while getting the results you want, and adding color can affect responses to your announcements. This program will provide managers and HR professionals with information that will help them increase employee morale & motivation and assist with training & development. This unique opportunity will feature a hands-on approach and will require interaction from the audience.

All SHRM members are urged to join their peers for this current and informative conference. Non-members in the business community, whether owners, managers or human resource professionals, are invited to learn more about the Society and to improve their human resource knowledge through the program.
