Rob was my first ever boss back in high school and one of my very first clients of The Social Stage. Here is a testimonial he wrote for me last year (but didn't quite know how to post as a LinkedIn recommendation): "Lauren Mikov has worked for Mohan Skiing & Boarding since 2007. We are one of the oldest and largest ski and snowboard schools in the country. We have a staff of over 350 and we bring over 3,000 people to the mountain each week. As the Director of this non-profit company I have worked closely with Lauren these past years. Lauren is without question in the top 10% of all the staff members I have ever employed. Lauren was one of our youngest and best program supervisors and she is the youngest person ever to sit on our Board of Directors. The work she has done for us is nothing short of amazing. She was often the first point of contact for our students and their parents. She is successful and she does an excellent job of representing our program because she is smart, hard working, self-reliant, and she takes initiative. Further, Lauren has superior verbal & written communication skills; is sincere, patient, kind and her students admired her immensely. Overall, we could not be happier with Lauren's performance. She is a very adept, conscientious employee and I believe she will be a tremendous asset to any organization she is associated with."
