1. What have you found most challenging as a CEO or executive of a large enterprise?
Sometimes it's just getting started and focused on what I want to see succeed.
2. How did you become a CEO or executive of a large enterprise? Can you please briefly tell the story?
I left the agency world and always felt I could be working for myself and on my own so as I was looking I thought "Well I can't be the only independent recruiter out there so as I was calling clients, I called candidates and independent recruiters...and so MindHR was created.

Allow others to lead but hold the reins when necessary.
5. What one book has had the most profound impact on your leadership so far? Can you please briefly tell the story of how that book impacted your leadership?
The Presence Process By Michael Brown. It's about living in the moment so you don't get ahead in the "what ifs"

Slowly. With communication in place so no one feels stepped on
