From its inception in 2003, the Forum has been built on the volunteer efforts of HR professionals around the region. They have worked to produce podcasts, pull together job ads from newspapers, engaged in regional research, hosted radio programs, designed logos, worked with students, written blog posts and much more.
Our volunteers come with a serious commitment, and actually work under what we call “honor contracts” – signed documents that are not legally binding, but represent professional agreements built on a foundation of mutual integrity. They agree to get more out of the experience than they put in. For example, some measure it in terms of professional visibility, while others get a chance to practice new skills in a safe environment.
In the near future we hope offer internships, which will have a small stipend.

I am interested in adding my voice to the list of current contributors. I am currently a Doctoral Student (Conflict Analysis and Resolution) looking to share the incredible academic experience with others. The aim is to inspire critical thinking on the opportunities to improve our interaction with others and how to manage the complex range of emotions that exist in stressful encounters.
