As we reflect upon on our 117 years of existence and look forward to what the future will bring, we know that without the support of our valued members there would be no purpose for our association. And so, each fall we dedicate a special evening to our members, our Board of Directors, and our partners. For all of us in the extended ASE family, it is a night of celebration.

It’s the most anticipated and exclusive Human Resources event in Michigan. It’s your opportunity to network with fellow business professionals...enjoy an evening of food and refreshments...mingle with old and new friends...help us honor the best of our profession...and learn about everything ASE is doing for their members, today and tomorrow.

The Annual Summit is all about publicly recognizing each year the people and accomplishments that have been central to the association's success.

In addition, you get to honor and congratulate Michigan’s HR Executive of the Year recipients.
