I founded the Talent Store to realize a shift in how Executive Search, Recruiting, and Talent Strategy services are priced and delivered to get rid of the transactional and competitive nature of third-party recruiting services to focus back on relationships and impact, and to make these services attainable for small, mid-sized, and non-profit organizations who are growing or changing. In my role as Founder and Principal, I am focused on:• Growth strategy• Client delivery• Service and team developmentAt the Talent Store, our goal is to help our clients achieve their strategic goals by hiring impactful leaders, key positions, and support teams – through our services of Executive Search, Key Position Placement, RPO and bulk hiring, and Talent Strategy Advising.
