GBA Town Hall: HR Professionals Tackle H-1B Visa Disruptions

This video is only available to members; join GBA today to watch it.


On October 8, more than 40 senior human resources professionals from GBA member firms
across North America joined a GBA Town Hall meeting to discuss the impact of and share
insights about a White House proclamation imposing changes to the H-1B visa program, an
important tool for employee recruitment and retention. It’s our hope that the Town Hall helped
these professionals consider a path forward that supports their H-1B employees and their firm’s
future growth. This is the recording of that town hall.

We’re grateful to the following panelists who shared their experience and led the discussion:

  1. Kelly Siedel, Director of Employee Experience (NTH Consultants)
  2. Robin Wood, HR Director (UES Professional Solutions)
  3. Mike Yost, Chief Administrative Officer (Terracon)

GBA is committed to monitoring the impact of entry restrictions of nonimmigrant workers,
sharing relevant and reliable updates and information, and working with member firms to
navigate this disruption to an already tight geoprofessional workforce.
