Theresa Jalowiec, VP of people and talent at Northland Communications, and sister company, Oneida County Rural Telephone (OCRT), has been appointed as the new workforce readiness director for the New York State Council of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).
The State Council serves as the bridge between local state chapters and SHRM. With more than 305,000 national SHRM members, SHRM is the voice for the HR profession and strives to create better workplaces where employers and employees thrive together.
Jalowiec begins her new role in January and will evaluate workforce-readiness issues and lead chapter advocates in the planning of activities impacting the workforce-readiness arena. She will monitor state and local activities like workforce-investment authorization, welfare-to-work, and education partnerships.
“We are very proud of Theresa’s appointment [as] workforce readiness director,” Brian Healey, chief operating officer, at Northland Communications, said in a company news release. “Her experience as a leader in the community of SHRM has already made a huge impact internally at Northland and in our local community, but now it will continue to, statewide.”
In addition to her new role, Jalowiec currently serves as past president for the Mohawk Valley SHRM board of directors.
Northland Communications is a Central New York–based telecommunications provider, offering cloud-based voice, data, and equipment solutions to businesses over its fiber-optic network. It has offices in Holland Patent and Syracuse.
