MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

AND WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED… I am very excited to kick-off our inaugural Commu- nity Report for DallasHR Management Association. This project has been a work in progress for more than a year now and I am pleased to share our suc- cesses from 2018! The DallasHR Management Association (DHRMA) volunteers and staff team have been working diligently to focus the organization on four specific strategies. Volunteer and staff teams met throughout 2018 to set goals and focus our energies in these four areas: We kicked off the year with an expansion of our educational offerings to include monthly meetings with more education hours and a focus on Talent Management in addition to general HR topics. Now attendees can receive more recertification hours than ever before. And we made the commitment and investment to build a new Online Learning Cen- ter to house these educational sessions in addition to the conference sessions already offered online. Our signature event, The HRSouthwest Conference, gained momentum in October offering nearly 17 hours of recertification credit from education ses- sions and the new Knowledge Hub on the expo floor. Attendee satisfaction grew to 97% overall and attendees were 95% likely to recommend The HR- Southwest Conference to a colleague or friend. • Innovative Educational Offerings • Membership and Customer Experience • Volunteering • Marketing and Branding

We continued our expansion of Collin CountyHR with five educational offerings and five networking oppor- tunities around Collin County. DallasHR members who live or work in Collin County continue to have easy access to programs right in their own backyard. Our membership finished the year with 2,176 mem- bers (a new record) representing a 6.7% growth over 2017. This includes a strong member retention rate of 76% for the year. We invested more in our Information Technology ef- forts by bringing on a full-time in-house Sr. Manager of IT to manage our major projects of the DallasHR website redesign, the membership >Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Page 11 Page 12 Page 13 Page 14 Page 15 Page 16 Page 17 Page 18 Page 19 Page 20 Page 21 Page 22 Page 23
