| MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: Dolly Buscher Meet Dolly Buscher, a passionate HR and education professional with more than 19 years of experience and a heart for community impact. Dolly currently serves as an HR Business Partner and Facilitator with the San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD), where she teaches ESL and GED courses in both English and Spanish. She holds an MBA in Healthcare Management and has built a career across social work, human resources, and adult education. Since 2019, Dolly has been a dedicated volunteer with SHRM San Antonio. She first served as Community Relations Director, where she designed and led a first-of-its-kind seminar on Human Resources Best Practices for Small and New Businesses and Entrepreneurs—delivered in Spanish for the Latin community. She later stepped into the Volunteer Director role, leading two symposiums and one Employment Law Conference. Her leadership and “go-getter” spirit have been recognized with an award from the 2025–2026 President and 2026–2027 President-Elect, affirming the value of her service to the chapter and the broader San Antonio community. Dolly often says her SHRM SA journey has shaped her in ways she never expected—personally, professionally, and in her commitment to giving back. |
Dolly Buscher
Q: You created and led a seminar on HR Best Practices for small businesses and entrepreneurs—in Spanish—for the Latin community. What inspired that program, and what did you hope participants would walk away with?
Dolly: One of the former board of directors, Kim Munoz, mentioned to me how great it would be if SHRM San Antonio would conduct an HR seminar in Spanish for the Latin Community, due to the number of owners of small businesses and entrepreneurs who were Spanish speaking within the San Antonio area. As I was planning and promoting the seminar, I found that many people were interested in attending, which reassured me that there was indeed a need for an event planned and promoted in Spanish for our Latin Community. Q: After serving as Community Relations Director, you became Volunteer Director and led two symposiums plus an Employment Law Conference. How did those leadership experiences change the way you approach your work as an HR Business Partner and adult facilitator? Dolly: Those experiences reminded me to continue reflecting on the importance of learning everyday and how to evolve as woman, professional and human being. It keeps reminding me to continue doing things that are my purpose in life that will make me feel like I am capable enough of achieving anything that I want to accomplish in my career and lifetime. Q: You recently received recognition from the current President and President-Elect for your service. What has volunteering with SHRM San Antonio meant to you, both personally and in your career? Dolly: It has been an honor and pleasure to support the organization since 2019. I feel blessed to have been given the opportunity to serve in multiple roles, where I have been able to grow as a person and as a professional in the different paths of my career. I am very grateful to the current President and President-Elect for giving me the recognition. More importantly, I always remember my roots and where I came from because I like to inspire other members of the community as an extraordinary role model and friend. |
