It's time for the newest edition of The LeaderSHPE View! Today CEO Chris Wilkie illustrates the similarities between you, our members, and the drivers of NASCAR. Y'all have a lot more on common than you think! And this connection has inspired a special set of speakers for the National Convention in a curated, 8-part series call, Fearless. It's going to make 2022 one of the best events yet!

Join us in welcoming Michelle Williams to the SHPE team as Manager, Administration. Michelle has a 25+ year track record of excellence in the Hospitality field. She has worked within the Event Planning and Human Resources Teams at Marriott. Her skillset of organization, multi-tasking, and solution seeking is a perfect addition to SHPE. She lives in the Washington, DC metro area with her husband, daughter, and son. She is thrilled to join the Familia!
