On this episode of the DriveThru HR podcast, Bryan has a guest speaker named Kathleen Woods.
Kathleen works for a company called Kathleen Wood Partners, simple enough. She says that her business focuses on building and turning around business so that they have greater productivity, which in turn gives the company a greater profit. They work with a wide range of businesses that are spread all over the U.S.
Kathleen said that all of the companies that she works with have the desire to invest in their employees as well as their company itself. She mentioned that many of her clients are thriving right now, even when the economy is down. She says this is because these companies are spending money where it is really needed, and that is in the people of a company.
Kathleen's business, as well as many others like it, are really enjoying a high amount of work right now. The reason is because of the fact that many businesses are starting to realize the importance and need to build up their employees before they can build up their company. These companies aren't focusing on just training either. They are also figuring out that service projects, fund raisers, and other out-of-the-norm activities allow employees to bust out of the mundane 8 hour work day.
What is your company doing to break out of the norm and allow your employees to have fun together?
