The One Crucial Action
To Transform Your Business
Most founders and entrepreneurs start their businesses with a passion to build a disruptive product, have an impact, and make a lot of money – not to deal with “people” problems that come with having a team. All business problems are people problems and they can seem impossible to solve. What if there is only one action you need to improve customer satisfaction, employee engagement, profitability, and “people” problems?

Get Off the Recruiting Treadmill
Every growing company is looking for talent right now, and the task of filling open positions is overwhelming and daunting. More than ever, the hiring process can be time-consuming, costly, and discouraging for a busy leader. Your organization’s success depends on your ability to hire and retain top talent, yet it can take months to fill a single position—and then, how do you really know the person is right? Finding great talent is more of a science than an art, yet many leaders struggle to fill roles. Additionally, if you have a revolving door of talent and you’re struggling to keep people, this makes your hiring process even more challenging.
I am a CEO, Founder, and Recruiter and I have personally recruited for hundreds of positions. This practical and inspiring talk pulls from my 11-year journey building a company where I have a constant pipeline of great candidates, have little turnover, a culture that is admired, is profitable and I work less than a 40-hour week. If I can do it, you can too!
On Becoming More
Diverse
Most leaders find a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiative to be important and also find it daunting. You know that there is value in having a more diverse team, but most leaders have little idea around how to do it – the efforts to hire, promote, train, and retain a diverse team people seem like too much with little impact. The journey begins with a single step, and it is possible to create a diverse team with time and effort.
I am a founder too, and this practical and inspiring talk pulls from my 11-year journey building a company where I have diverse representation from every member of my team. Plus, we have little turnover, a culture that is admired, is profitable and I work less than a 40-hour week. If I can do it, you can too!
Building a Bench of Talent
The biggest challenge with succession planning is helping the leadership team get out of their own way. We will start with the leader to help them identify how their thoughts and behaviors affect their ability to develop others. We will identify critical positions that need to be developed and how to get to a deliberate future state. We will also talk about what kinds of qualities make for a good successor including how they align with the mission and the values of the organization.
Finally, we will explore how to mentor and coach a middle management team in such a way that growth is a natural byproduct.
