Ultimate Biannual Social. This semester, we

gathered at Mānoa Valley Park to play games,

eat delicious foods, and get to know one

another! Gannon Chibana, our Director of

Student Affairs, organized various games to

help break the ice. The pictures above shows

our members getting ready for our blind-

folded, balloon toss relay!

We began the day with a game requiring

everyone to re-visit their 3rd grade math skills!

First two numbers were chosen. As we went

around the circle, each member counted

whichever number fell upon them aloud. Those

who landed on a multiple of the chosen number

is supposed to clap instead of saying the number

aloud. Members who were unable to “math”

were subjected to stand in the center of the

circle to answer questions while flailing their

arms in the air.

Lunch was catered by Gina’s BBQ. Winners

of the relay were allowed to eat first.

However, there were ample amounts and

enough variety to satisfy everyone’s

cravings! Check out our Spring 2016

S.C.R.U.B.S YouTube video to see highlights

of our event!

IBC Back to Business Bowling

Kicking off the month of February was the IBC

Back to Business Bowling! All eleven Shidler

business clubs gathered together to re-

connect, network, and welcome our new and

returning members at the Aiea Bowling Alley.

Although this was a late night event, the

combination of cosmic bowling, music,

delicious foods, and great company created an

exciting experience for all! Speaking of great

company, it is always pleasant when SHRM

alumni come back to visit. At the IBC Bowling

was Geng Fang and Sheina Baybayan to name a

few! New members developed more

friendships and learned about the exciting life

after graduation!

Since Back to Business Bowling includes all

business clubs, it can become quite

intimidating for new members. However, as

you can see from the awkward photos

above, we accept each member

wholeheartedly (whether they like it or not)

and appreciate their participation! In the

lower left photo, we see vice president,

Jessica Higashi, and member, Tracy Yuan,

displaying absolutely no shame for utilizing

the bowling ramps. One of our newest

members, Carley Shimizu, recalls Back to

Business as a “great experience to meet

other people and socialize!” She was

ecstatic to make so many new friends!

On February 21st, the SHRM Aloha

Chapter and Finance Management

Association held a joint social at

Kaimana Beach! The weather was

beautiful, aside from the abusive

winds. However, the members had a

great time socializing with one

another. The food was delicious, as

always, and there were lots of Red

Bull to keep us awake! Thanks to the

connections of our Director of

Student Affairs, Gannon Chibana,

members were able to participate in

a free yoga session!

February 21st was also our IBC

Senator, Tyler Hishinuma’s, Birthday!

Here he poses with cheesecakes.

FMA and SHRM members participating in yoga. Little

did they know their muscles would ache the next day!

UH vs UCI Basketball Game Social

On February 11th, the

SHRM Aloha Chapter went

to support our men’s

basketball team as they

won against UC Irvine!

That evening was a

“blackout night” in which

audience members were

encouraged to wear black.

“Straight Outta Manoa”

shirts were distributed as

well as awesome green

lightsabers!!!

Resume and Interviews 101 with Cindy Paguyo

WORKSHOPS

:

“The workshop was a great learning

experience. It helped me strengthen my

resume and prepare for future

interviews!” – Alan Phu

SHRM's first spring 2016 workshop was hosted by

Cindy Paguyo and Kristin Inouye from Hawai'i

Pacific Health. The two enthusiastic professionals

shared their personal insights and experiences

when it came to resumes and interviews. Their

thorough breakdown of what belongs on a

resume to walking through each step in the

interviewing process, left our members with a

feeling of confidence and excitement to test out

their new found knowledge in an actual

interview. Our members particularly enjoyed the

little inspirational quotes scattered throughout

their presentation!

Thanks to our Director of

Corporate Relations, Tyler

Navarro, the SHRM Aloha

Chapter was given the amazing

opportunity to tour the Hawaiian

Host chocolate factory without

having to find the golden ticket!

We ended the tour with an

informational Q&A session with

the Hawaiian Host professionals

whom provided inspiring advice

to our members. They were also

extremely generous with

allowing us to taste their

delicious products!

After touring the chocolate factory, Angelica Kaina, pulls

a box of chocolates straight from the conveyer belt! She

describes the process of how each step contributes to

their signature quality. Later, we were allowed to eat the

freshly made chocolates!

Company Tours

Support our Regal Bakery

Fundraiser! Who doesn’t love

donuts? Maybe not as much as

Homer Simpson BUT this fundraiser

can also purchase other Regal

Bakery items, such as breakfast,

lunch, and dinner plates! Who

wouldn’t be happy with a deal like

that!

For our first community service,

the SHRM Aloha Chapter

volunteered at the Great Aloha

Run! With an average of 24,000

runners every year, we kept busy

the entire day! It felt nice to

promote a healthy lifestyle to the

community as we sat down and

distributed packets. In fact, our

Director of Marketing, Ryan

Silao, became inspired to

participate in the next Great

Aloha Run. Additionally, our club

had one of the greatest number

of volunteers. We were proud to

see such active participation!

Shidler College of Business

Honolulu, HI 96822

PROFESSIONAL INTERACTION

NIGHT

Our Director of Corporate Relations, Tyler

Navarro, will be graduating this spring and is

excited to utilize this knowledge, stating

“The speakers really offered some powerful

advice that I can take with me as I enter the

workforce in a few months after

graduation!" This information can also be

applied to situations outside of the work

place. Since the SHRM Aloha Chapter is

accepting to all majors outside of the Shidler

School of Business, this information can be

utilized for any group project or activity. By

applying the points discussed by Whitehead

and Miller, one can improve group dynamic

and make group work something to enjoy.

SHRM Hawaii – Oahu Educational Foundation Human Resources

Today and In the Future

This January, the SHRM Aloha Chapter was

invited to a breakfast held by SHRM Hawaii

regarding the current situation and future of

the field of Human Resources. Sharing their

knowledge and experience were guest

speakers, Jonnelly Miller and Beth

Whitehead. Through this experience, the

executive board members learned about the

importance of constant and consistent

feedback in the work place to ensure quality

communication between the employer and

the employee. Overall, feedback, worker

appreciation, and trust were key elements to

creating an effective and efficient work

environment.
