15th ALIGNHR Annual Hot Topics Conference
May 3-4, 2017 - Embassy Suites, Charleston, WV

The AlignHR Annual Conference is now the LARGEST HR conference of its kind in the state!! Due to the growth of the annual conference, we moved it to a larger location … the Embassy Suites in Charleston, right across from Town Center. Looking for tools that can make your job a little less frantic?? We’ll have lots of RESOURCES with our exhibitor tables for you. And if you downloaded our App last year – you’ll soon be getting an update. Not only will it have information for this conference but will include information for other events and webinars that we’ll host later this year.

Here’s just a hint of what’s to come:

• Tough Talks and Critical Conversations HR Practitioners Must Master
  Amy Panzarella, Sr. Vice President American Public University System 
• How, Why, and When to Intervene with a Workplace Bully
  Dr. Brian Henderson, Senior Human Resources Manager, Duke University Health System
• Stress Busters for HR Professionals
  Aila Accad, RN, MSN, Certified Well-Being Coach – LifeQuest International, LLC, and author of “Stress Busters” 
• The Inside Scoop on Millennials: Who We Are, How to Motivate Us, and Understanding How We Think
  David Sadd, a real-life millennial!
• Applying the Power of Positive Psychology 
  Jim Strawn, President at Jim Strawn & Company
• Compensation Strategies for Millennials and Everyone Else
  AlignHR Compensation Experts Janelle Friedline and Tammy Baker 
• Smartphone Use at Work The New Workplace Rules
  Lenny Hannigan, past president – WV Telecommunications Association

And that’s not even half the agenda!  You won’t believe the legal experts that are presenting
Pending HRCI, SHRM, CLE, and CPE Credits

It’s going to be hard to beat the outstanding reviews we got from last year’s conference, but we’ve got it under control.   

Here’s what some of last year’s attendees had to say:

• “Reliably the best HR conference in the state”
• “The absolute best learning experience”
• “You won’t believe the resources you’ll take back to work”
