The Trouble with SHRM

On this week's episode, we're doing something a little different. I invited Morgan Williams, Tracie Sponenberg, and Sarika Lamont to go in-depth on one topic - SHRM. SHRM has been the talk of HR news a lot over the past year - they dropped the E from DEI, are facing a lawsuit from a former employee who is alleging discrimination and retaliation, and most recently the CEO was added to a shortlist to serve as Secretary of Labor. So we dive deep on SHRM - who they are, how they've changed, who they serve, and why it all matters. ----Connect with Sarika Lamont on LinkedInConnect with Tracie Sponenberg on LinkedIn or visit her website to sign up for her newsletter.
