Search Solution Group, in partnership with Business North Carolina, proudly organized the inaugural Carolina HR Summit & Awards at the Truist Field. Drawing on our successful track record of hosting Women in HR events in Charlotte, we expanded this gathering to welcome HR professionals across the Carolinas. We are proud to have built an engaging regional platform for HR leaders to unite, share knowledge, and collaborate on building a thriving workforce.
This year marks the beginning of a new tradition of excellence, reflection, and collaboration in HR. As our commitment to the HR field grows, we plan to continue these efforts with future events in Raleigh and Charleston, expanding our reach and support for HR professionals across the Carolinas.
“Congratulations to all our winners tonight! You are a testament to the strength and innovation within the HR community here in the Carolinas. Thank you for your contributions and for being leaders in shaping the future of our workforce. We recognize your commitment to supporting your employees and creating the best possible work experience within your organizations.” – Dave Holtzman
We look forward to building on this momentum as we continue to strengthen the HR profession across the Carolinas. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made this event truly special.
