District Directors
District Directors serve as Council representatives
for designated geographical areas within Virginia. The District Director
provides leadership and communication to further the Society's goals
and objectives between existing and future SHRM members and SHRM professional
and student chapters.
District Directors serve an important function in the continued growth of
new SHRM members and local chapters. They are present to help their chapters
and chapter leaders develop and grow through an ongoing process of education,
training, experience and leadership development. The District Directors
assist to inspire higher levels of teamwork within chapters. District
Directors are available to help chapters accomplish their objectives and
goals through application of leadership within the chapter. As chapter
liaisons, they are there to lead chapter officers and members to accomplish
these tasks with a positive impact.
As representatives of SHRM and the Virginia State Council, District Directors
are there to assist chapters in understanding the national and state overall
strategy and help members understand how they can be a part of achieving
that success through key objectives. The directors also serve as a conduit
in the sharing of information from both the national and state organization
with the local chapters.

The Southwest District of VA-SHRM is spread from Christiansburg to
Abingdon, Virginia (nearly Tennessee). Interstate 81 gets you “mostly”
to the three chapters, but then there’s always some driving
beyond the Interstate. That’s really the most interesting part.
The landscape is beautiful so it makes for a great drive, generally
around 3 hours depending on which chapter and where the meeting is
being held. The three chapters-- New River Valley (Christiansburg),
Twin County (Galax), and SW Virginia (Wise)-- represent the Human
Resources profession on the southwestern end of Virginia. Each chapter
is unique in its own way, but they all offer great programs and opportunities
to network with other Human Resources professionals. They are an effective
arm of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) and a strong
part of the VA-SHRM initiatives. |
