SDHR Forum

At the SDHR Forum, we’re about giving back to our HR Community. Thank you Gaylene Xanthopoulos with The Leadership Edge for doing just that with the dynamic and insightful discussion at our breakfast meeting this week. It was a privilege to have you as our first speaker in our new, beautiful location at Torrey View! We'd love to hear from you if you were in attendance at this week's event. Please take our brief survey: https://lnkd.in/g_9QGZzE

Dynamic speaker 🎤, solid content, great networking, and a full belly 😋. Walking away from our SDHR Forum breakfast with a smile and some new nuggets. 🌟 I always enjoy keeping a pulse on the HR community and responsibilities. These are the professionals we tend to work the most closely with when implementing and managing a benefits program. These are also the individuals whose lives we impact the most when we provide the heavy lifting and support they need and deserve to get from a broker partner. It’s amazing how many roles and responsibilities that are placed on an HR professional within an organization. They should have their time freed up to do those impactful, proactive things. Not waste time with items a broker should be doing for them like: 👉 Fixing incorrect billing 👉 Waiting on hold with carriers 👉Helping employees with insurance claims 👉 Employee benefits education & onboarding 👉 Managing enrollment systems 👉 Facilitating COBRA and much more! #hrcommunity #strategicplan #somanyhats #themorrisonadvantage
