Fry: Gratitude and invitation

On behalf of Elevate HR, I extend our heartfelt thanks to Emma Hillenburg and Mary-Margaret Thomas of the Chapman Foundation for their Caring Communities presentation last month.

The message was more than informative — it was transformational. As the HR profession continues to navigate complex cultural and legal dynamics in today’s workplace, their message on listening with empathy, leading with purpose, and fostering authentic relationships resonated deeply with our members.

If your organization is feeling the strain of increased division or miscommunication — consider attending or sending a team member to the Chapman Foundation’s signature program, Our Community Listens, taking place in Snowmass Village on Sept. 23, 25, and 30.

Elevate HR is proud to stand with mission-driven partners like the Chapman Foundation. We look forward to future collaborations that empower our local organizations and communities to thrive by fostering workplace cultures rooted in respect, belonging, and civility.

Katherine Fry, Elevate HR president
