Presidents Award
This prestigious annual award recognizes one chapter volunteer leader who has made outstanding contributions to GVFHRA and the HR profession. Nominations can be made from the general membership, and the selection process is made by the Past Presidents of GVFHRA (officially known as “The Presidents’ Circle”).
This award has been given each September since 2003. Originally named “The President’s Award”, the Chapter elected to rename the award in 2012 in honor of Rosemarie Eppinger, a Past-President of the Chapter who passed away in 2012.
The purpose of the Award is threefold. First, the Award reinforces the importance of leadership at GVFHRA. Second, it honors a person who embodies the spirit and ideals of the Human Resource profession. Third, it builds relationships between GVFHRA, HR leaders and the business community.
All GVFHRA members in good standing are eligible candidates. This includes but is not limited to Human Resource Management professionals, vendors and consultants. GVFHRA members, including board and committee members, are asked to nominate candidates for this prestigious award.
