Big congratulations to our Volunteers of the Month! 👏

Tyra Bremer and Megan Joseph embody the dedication and vision that drive the HR profession forward. Through their dedication, vision and commitment, they have an impact on all our members at DallasHR.

DallasHR Volunteer of the Month:

Tyra Bremer is an outstanding contributor to DallasHR in Collin County and is a truly deserving Volunteer of the Month. In preparation for our 2026 programming, Tyra took the initiative to research and thoroughly vet two potential speakers for our April and June events. Thanks to Tyra’s thoughtful work, we were able to secure both speakers right away. Tyra consistently demonstrates dependability, responsibility, and a collaborative spirit.

The HRSouthwest Conference Volunteer of the Month:

Megan Joseph is a fantastic choice for Volunteer of the Month for the HRSouthwest Conference Ed Sessions Committee. Megan partnered with her employer and collaborated with fellow committee member, Melissa Jackson, to secure a location for our upcoming in-person meeting. In addition to her collaboration and problem-solving, Megan has demonstrated exceptional diligence in completing her speaker session reviews. Megan is truly a team player who brings reliability, energy, and excellence to everything she does.

We are incredibly grateful to have them on our committees!

Here’s something people don’t talk about enough, but really should.

This week’s HR Hot Take comes from Jamarrik Gardner:

Update your beneficiaries.

Your life insurance policy. Your retirement plan. Both. Because if something happens, the last thing your family needs is your benefits stuck in probate while they’re already going through the hardest thing imaginable.

Keeping it up to date protects the people you love most.

When’s the last time you actually checked yours?

Did you know that poor employee relations skills account for over 60% of turnover? 📉

This program provides leaders with practical information, scripts, and tactics such that they demonstrate good judgment, sensitivity, and confidence in handling employee relations issues.

This isn't a dry legal seminar. It’s a highly interactive, entertaining deep dive into the tactics, scripts, and judgment calls that keep you out of the courtroom and keep your team’s trust intact.

⏰Reset The Clock: Built into this unique program is a judicially accepted process that prevents what leaders did wrong in the past from being used in future lawsuits.
✅Stay Out of Court: Employers win most lawsuits, but it’s expensive. When employers win, it’s a regrettable experience for leaders and employees.
