  • The Good Jobs
    Culture Strategy Director
    The Good Jobs May 2014 - Mar 2017
    Milwaukee, Wi, Us
    The best job seekers have options. And they know it. As the Culture Strategy Director at The Good Jobs, I helped employers get in front of this critical challenge. I helped employers define, refine and leverage their culture to attract and retain talent. The Good Jobs unique model helps you quantify the culture points that are important to today’s job seekers, so you can better tell your story.Today’s superstar companies — like Zappos, Google, Rackspace and Apple — understand the importance of being an employer of choice. Nothing beats an engaged workforce comprised of highly talented employees, aligned with your company’s values and culture. Nobody can provide better customer service.As Peter Drucker famously observed, “culture eats strategy for breakfast.” Savvy job seekers recognize that satisfaction comes not just from a job itself, but the organization and its values and culture. And it isn’t a one-size-fits-all proposition. Different job seekers value different things. The Good Jobs can help you define and leverage your unique culture.
