Hiring expert with international markets & advanced employee communications experience

Primary focus for current or most recent role: Hiring / Talent Acquisition

Remits of particular interest: During times of crisis, it is particularly difficult to engage future hires as well as existing employees. On-going communication is key. My expertise spans large Fortune companies as well as very small start-ups, particularly during times of change and the uncertainty it brings.

Unique expertise: Exceptional writing/communication/storytelling skills. Keep current employees engaged, passionate and supported during times of uncertainty by recognizing strengths, building skills, participating in development projects (all of which can be accomplished virtually). By making it personal, you can continue to build your brand externally and internally, simultaneously using this time to insure internal practices/policies are solid and sustainable. Train, develop and communicate on social media.

Markets with deep expertise: I have extensive experience in North America and am familiar with all laws related to labor and immigration within the US, Canada and LatAm. Additionally, I have grown teams in South Korea, India, Singapore, Malaysia and parts of EU. This includes attracting and retaining full-time, contract and temporary employees across multiple industries at myriad levels within organizations.

Languages : English

Workforce types directly supported: Executives, senior and middle managers and hourly work forces within: manufacturing (consumer goods, pharma, medical devices, construction), similar roles within: entertainment, retail, property management, investment banking, software development and re-sellers; internal HR, legal, finance and marketing roles at all levels

Current home country: USA

Team management: I am comfortable in individual contributor roles as well as team leadership. I have led teams of 20-30 at any given time, both on-site and virtually around the globe. I am passionate about developing people and mentoring as well as being a continual learner, thus being part of a team is truly a pleasure. "Team" can be accomplished in other ways, thus, I do not require being a team "leader" in order to assist.

Strengths: My gifts include exceptional listening/probing skills and a well developed keen intuition. I am extremely business savvy, professional and respectful with a consultative approach. In other words, your team becomes my team and I will be committed to your business success and objectives. I am well versed in the legalities of good HR practices, what it takes to run a business (from a people perspective) and can plug in many different gaps. I am a certified career coach and can assist your employees with internal development as well as external employment searches. I can have the difficult conversations on your behalf.

Need to know: Throughout my career, I have been a confidante of many business leaders. This includes business owners, C-level executives, managers of teams within large/small organizations who approach their role from an entrepreneurial perspective. Thus, I am able to communicate business objectives and changes to employees succinctly and empathetically. I enjoy translating business objectives into actionable deliverables. This is a bold statement, yet true. I am good at the high-level strategy stuff as well as the details. For example, this might include a plan to hire for a no-name brand company in a new location: building a strategy, writing compelling ads, training managers on how to hire the best, compiling data/analytics and course correcting along the way.

Currently setup with secure home office and reliable internet?: I am completely set up to work from home or travel when needed.

Any conflict of time/interest clauses we need to be mindful of : My other endeavors are flexible and can be scheduled around client needs. I am open to international hours for a period of time and always available for working hours in North America.
