These leadership programs play a big role in our ability to recruit and retain top talent and I consistently work with my team to evaluate their value and content to ensure we’re offering information and topics that are relevant and useful for our employees and our firm.I have been lucky to be a part of BlumShapiro’s growth from 140 employees (when I started in 2005) to over 400 employees. This growth has exposed me to a variety of situations from choosing new vendors for evaluations, HRIS and background checks to re-evaluating our recruiting processes and going through mergers. Each day is an adventure, I never know what I’m going to get. Whether it’s staying up-to-date on employment law, reviewing our HIPAA compliance or coaching an employee, I always have one goal in mind: How can my team and I improve? Show less
