Calling All Business Leaders! I'm looking to gather insights (NOT pitch for business) to understand something extremely valuable: YOUR UNIQUE LEADERSHIP BRAND. As leaders, we often underestimate the power of our reputation and the impact it has on those around us. Your leadership brand isn't just about what you say or do; it's about the promises you make, the actions you take, and how others perceive you. It's the essence of your effectiveness as a leader, influencing whether people trust you, want to work with you or believe in your vision. I'm inviting business leaders like you to a brief, 30-minute virtual research conversation. I'll ask you questions about your experiences with someone you considered a great leader, challenges you or others you've seen struggle with having an effective brand, and more. All of your responses are held in confidence. This is super casual, and you don't need to prepare for anything. If this doesn't fit for you exactly, but you know someone who fits this profile, please pass this information along to them. Thank you in advance for considering my invitation to connect! It will help inform ways in which to best equip leaders who want to improve their people and themselves.

Business owners and CEOs, let's talk about the importance of looking at your talent across all departments. Succession planning includes: ✅ Assessing the depth of your leaders and their skills. ✅ Recognizing key themes in your company ✅ Creating concrete actions to help your overall organization Overall, this will give you a "temperature" of the overall health of your most important asset - your people! Are you needing help in this area of your business? Human resources shouldn't be daunting, it should be the foundation of your entire business. -- #peoplerise #successionplanning #humanresources #smallbusinessowners

We shared a few weeks ago that we were granted the certification by the WBENC and as a WOSB! For those who are not familiar, WOSB stands for Women-Owned Small Business. Essentially this certification ensures equal opportunities for female business proprietors by restricting competition for specific contracts to those enrolled in the women's contracting program. Being certified means we've been rigorously assessed and recognized as a business that's at least 51% woman-owned, operated, and controlled. It's the proof of our commitment to diversity and empowerment in every aspect of our operations. 🌟 But what does this really mean for us, and for you? It opens up tons of possibilities - from government contracts to new partnerships, all while promoting the cause of women in business! It's not just an achievement; it's an opportunity to create growth, equality, and innovation. Thank you to the Women's Business Enterprise Council Greater DMV Certification Committee for this honor. We're excited to see where this journey takes us and how it allows us to further empower businesses and individuals with our strategic HR advisory and executive coaching services. Here's to breaking barriers and building bridges 🤝

Thanks to everyone who attended our second Employee Retention Workshop yesterday at the Collective in Annapolis! Susan shared incredible insights and strategies surrounding onboarding. We also had great discussions around creating onboarding as an experience, your people are your best marketing tool when it comes to recruiting, and how the experience you give them in the first 30 days matters more than anything when it comes to retaining your employees. We'll be hosting this workshop virtually in the coming weeks - comment below if you'd be interested in joining or subscribe to our email list on our website: www.peoplerisellc.com #PeopleManagement #HRLeaders #PeopleLeaders #EmployeeRetention
