    What are participants saying about Stepping Stones to Enhanced Leadership?

    • "Through the Austin SHRM Stepping Stones Leadership Program, I received a much needed reminder on the of the art of inspiring, guiding, and shaping the future of HR in my workplace and specifically on my wonderful team. It allowed me the opportunity to learn a bit more about myself, things I do well and things I can focus on.  It reinvigorated my commitment to nurturing a thriving, people-centric, inclusive culture. I am thankful I was able to meet so many HR peers in the Austin area, hear their diverse perspectives, and even discuss similar obstacles we face as HR professionals. The instructors were all amazing, kind, committed and very knowledgeable. They tailored their teachings to focus on areas of interest as well as ensure they answered our questions. It was a great program, and I would highly recommend.  Thank you, Austin SHRM, for continuing to invest in the HR leaders of today and those to come."
