Dwane Lay and the ILSHRM13 Trilogy

Dwane Lay

Today we are going the share the third and final keynote address from #ILSHRM13.  Illinois SHRM BFF Dwane Lay was our closing keynote speaker on Tuesday. We were happy to move Dwane to the big stage and let him take on the entire crowd in one room. There is no doubt that he met the challenge (though you can judge for yourself).
.
Not only has Dwane become a great speaker, he is also getting noticed as a great organizer helping to raise significant amount of funds for charity both in 2013 and 2012  Dwane has spear-headed efforts for the bloggers to raise money for charity. The efforts were noticed too by SHRM President Hank Jackson in last months edition of HR Magazine.

So here it is... Dwane's presentation - wire to wire. Don't you think you better plan on joining us next year!

ILSHRM Speaker Preview - Dwane Lay

As one of the writers of this blog, I am afforded the opportunity to say pretty much what I want - within reason. (The ILSHRM execs do jerk my chain once in a while.)  Today I am excited to start a series of posts.  The series is going going to be an assembly of short videos from some of our speakers for the Illinois SHRM State Conference August 22 and 23.

This post is the first of these.  I would like to introduce you to Dwane Lay. Dwane lives is the St. Louis area and will be traveling to Oak Brook for our event.  Although Dwane and I live about 90 miles apart I had to travel to Atlanta to meet him recently.  He is (at least in my mind) a young man full of energy and creative ideas for Human Resources.  So meet Dwane Lay...
