Vision & Mission

CincySHRM's Purpose and Objective

Since its beginning in 1935, the CincySHRM has developed into a progressive and professional association which attracts Greater Cincinnati’s top Human Resource practitioners into its membership.

Human Resource professionals serve their employers and the business community in many roles, from benefits and employment law expertise to leading innovation and motivation. Ultimately, we are the leaders of any company’s most important resource, human capital.

Because of this complex role, we need as many of our own resources and support as possible. CincySHRM’s purpose is to be that resource and channel of support. We strive to continue to advance the Human Resource profession through sharing experience and knowledge.

VISION

CincySHRM is the premier leader in providing professional interactive development and community involvement opportunities to HR professionals.

CincySHRM is a champion and a catalyst to stretch the boundaries of our profession, providing HR expertise to the business community, and increasing HR’s role and impact in the businesses in which our members serve.

MISSION

CincySHRM empowers its members to grow professionally, build meaningful relationships, and contribute to the success of the organizations and communities in which they work, live, and play.
