Chair's Message

Welcome to IHRM 2009
Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA

     It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the International Human Resource Management Conference for 2009. We have located what I think will prove to be a delightful venue for the meetings, the historic La Fonda de Santa Fe. This historic hotel is located right in the middle of downtown Santa Fe, adjacent to the Plaza.

     If you are interested in visiting New Mexico, consider getting a free visitor’s guide from the New Mexico Tourism Department. We have provided a link on the conference homepage, or you can simply click here and find the needed information. There is much to see and do in the area, and with a bit of planning many side trips are possible. We will also be organizing some day trips through the conference itself.

     Between now and the conference, this webpage will continue to evolve. Feel free to check back and see what new things have been added.

     We have arranged for three very exciting keynote addresses, and there will be many papers, symposia, and other events to make attendance well worth your time and efforts. New Mexico is called The Land of Enchantment for a reason. Join us for this exciting conference and see for yourself why this is so.
