Experience

Running a small business is like building a plane while flying it. Important projects for longterm business growth are often deprioritized in favor of more immediate short term fixes. I work with companies to create and execute organized, prioritized plans to address the many moving parts of their business. Completing projects they’ve been putting off gives businesses a polished, professional look that attracts more business from customers and commands respect from their corporate peers.

Some of the collaborative projects I’ve been fortunate to work on with my clients include:

Management and strategy:

Through organization, strategy, and communication, I collaboratively examine how the business is run and find realistic, manageable opportunities for improvement. By taking a deep dive into a company’s industry and their specific business, we find the best methodologies to increase revenue, employee satisfaction, and productivity while reducing costs, confusion, and inefficiencies that are tailored to their specific goals. 

Operations:

Companies that want to elevate their business with coordinated efficiency and improved interpersonal relationships often need the insight of someone outside of the company. I bring a fresh perspective with innovative strategies to reduce time spent on a single task, increase quality, reduce stress levels for employees, and ultimately boost revenue by mapping out and refining existing processes or implementing new ones.

Human Resources:

It is just as important to keep employees happy as it is to keep customers happy. I’ve worked with cross-functional teams to implement and utilize data from feedback surveys to gain valuable insight into the overall experience of employees. As a result, we found solutions to evolve best practices, improve employee satisfaction, and increase retention. Ultimately, our efforts helped integrate employees into the business’s vision and goals, boosting productivity. 

Community outreach:

More and more consumers seek out businesses with a culture of altruistic involvement and giveback. Helping companies immerse themselves in their communities by weaving social consciousness into the fiber of their company culture, and facilitating reciprocal support, is the most satisfying component of my work. I collaborate with stakeholders to develop philanthropic strategies that establish a symbiotic relationship between a business and the community through strategic sponsorship, donation efforts, and event participation. This cultural shift has had a profound impact in creating a more fulfilling experience for businesses, their employees, and their customers.
