Session Description: This pivotal experience led to the creation of PEOPLEfirst and ignited a passion for helping businesses find talent in unlikely places, while creating a candidate experience that makes top talent excited to choose you. We treat job seekers like customers, and are more strategic and data-driven in the way we find, evaluate, and develop your people. Topic: In this presentation, we will review why most culture initiatives fail or lose steam, who needs to be in charge of culture, and how to build our culture in a way that it gets weaved into the fabric of your organization - intentionally- for genuine change.
1) Who needs to be on board with the culture change and an initial plan for getting them activated
2) Be able to model a 12mos program integrating culture into the strategies and processes existing within the organization.
3) How to prioritize initiatives based on overarching business goals and objectives
4) How to keep it fun and fresh for maximum adoptionization.


Speaker Bio:Speaker. Consultant. Partner. Educator. Advocate. I have a vision to put customer service and creativity back into the Talent equation. After a dramatic career pivot of my own, and realizing that talent can come from a multitude of places which we aren't tapping into, I founded PEOPLEfirst.

Our mission is to help businesses and talent simultaneously by changing the way people are hired, developed, and retained. Going from professional dancer to not knowing what to do next, I had to learn how to communicate skills that seemed irrelevant on paper in a way that compelled a company to take a chance on me. In doing so, that company acquired someone who was grateful, loyal, and excited to make in impact. Through my own transformation into an HR professional, I realized that our top talent in the organization also came from unlikely places. Yet, we were still using antiquated criteria (like experience) to lead our selection process. When we began overhauling our strategic hiring practices and finding creative ways to find talent who possessed the right strengths and characteristics to suit the role, we began excelling.
