President's Welcome Letter

Dear MAHRA Members,

I hope this message finds you well and filled with excitement for the future. As we embark on a new era for MAHRA, I am deeply honored and enthusiastic to assume the role of President for the upcoming term. I want to express my gratitude for your trust and support as we navigate this journey together.

MAHRA has always been a dynamic community dedicated to supporting HR professionals and people leaders. Celebrating our 70th anniversary this year, our steadfast commitment to excellence has consistently shaped the HR landscape in the Greater Manchester area, cultivating a network of professionals who are not only leaders in their fields but also central members of their local communities. As we look ahead, I am eager to build on our past successes and drive us toward even greater achievements.

As I embark on this role, I’m excited to focus on three main initiatives:

Transformational Professional Development Opportunities – We will redefine professional development for HR and leadership by planning a term filled with engaging workshops, webinars, and seminars. These will address both evergreen challenges and the latest trends, featuring innovative speakers and industry experts who will inspire and equip us with essential tools for success. Think of these as TED Talks tailored specifically for HR and people leaders.

Robust Membership Growth & Engagement – We will grow our membership and enhance engagement, positioning MAHRA as the go-to hub for HR and business in the Greater Manchester area and beyond. Whether you're a seasoned professional or new to the field, MAHRA will provide the network and resources you need to thrive.

Strategic Expansion of MAHRA’s Business Development and Corporate Partnerships – We will strategically expand MAHRA’s business arm by leveraging the successful corporate partnerships established this year. This effort will enhance our reach, increase our resources, and amplify our impact within both the HR and broader business communities. By deepening existing partnerships, seeking new collaborations, and offering unique benefits, we aim to position MAHRA as a pivotal resource and influential player in driving HR and organizational success.

MAHRA’s strength lies in its members, and your active participation is crucial. I encourage each of you to get involved, share your ideas, and help shape our organization’s future. Together, we can achieve remarkable things.

Please reach out to me with your ideas, questions, or concerns at president@mahra.org. Your input is invaluable, and I am here to listen.

Thank you again for entrusting me with this role. I am eager to serve you all to the best of my abilities.

Warm regards,


Amy Mayo, SHRM-SCP, MBA
