    "As we began to expand our operations and bring on more people, we managed HR and did the right things to be a good employer, but we didn’t have a specific people strategy. We realized that we needed to be more thoughtful about it, but as a relatively small organization, we required some professional external support...From the very outset of our engagement, Laura has taken charge to shape our idealistic view of what our people-first strategy should be and put it into practice. She is part of the team now and has done an amazing job fitting in as a coach and mentor to our people."
