Are you tired of struggling to find good employees?
It doesn’t have to be this way, get...
The Manager’s Hiring Toolkit  
Learn how to make your next hire your best hire yet!
This Course Includes Videos, Worksheets, Templates and Other Great Resources
If you ever find yourself saying things like…
  • “It would be great to know the secret to finding and hiring great people” 
  •  “I’m tired of having people who can’t do the job I hired them for” 
  • “Our staff turnover is costing us a fortune” 
  • “I want to know the secret to finding and hiring great people!” 
  •  “I’m tired of having people who can’t do the job I hired them for!” 
  • “Our staff turnover is costing us a fortune!”
You’re not alone. I see so many business owners and managers struggling to find and recruit great people. 

Have you ever thought there aren’t enough good people out there?

I contend that’s not the real problem. The real problem is poor recruiting, hiring and onboarding practices.  
The Managers Hiring Toolkit is designed to help you become more effective in recruiting, hiring and onboarding new employees, and ultimately, building and retaining a great team.
I developed this course as a way to overcome my own challenges as a leader., and for over 25 years I’ve helped hundreds of clients learn to recruit and hire better.  As a result, they've built great teams that are skilled, competent and take ownership.

Each of the videos in the Managers Hiring Toolkit course will walk you through how to recruit, screen, interview, and onboard new team members. Along with the videos, you’ll receive checklists, processes, templates and interview questions that will help you implement what you learn in this course.

I Put in Half the Time I Used To

Before I met Vicki, I was working out of my house with part-time help. I was routinely putting in 80-100 hours a week on my business. I didn’t have time to do other things I enjoy, and I was exhausted and unhappy. Vicki helped me put the systems and people I needed in place to sustain and grow my business. Now, I put in half the time I used to and get much more done, and make way more money.

How to be More Strategic

With no real business background, we had become accustomed to basing business decisions on our intuition. Our guesses were pretty good. But as we grew, we realized that keeping things running was harder than it had to be. Vicki showed us how to plan on budget, explained what our numbers are telling us, and showed us how we could be more strategic in how we spend our time and our money.
