What I Do
NOW MORE than ever A COMPANY'S CULTURE is indicative of ITS SUCCESS. EMPLOYEES won’t do their BEST WORK OR EVEN RETAIN POSITIONS if they don’t see their ORGANIZATION PRIORITIZING their GROWTH.
Investing in existing personnel is the best thing an organization can do to boost productivity. Dr. Starks offers specialized strategies to produce results that increase your company’s overall productivity and improve the culture of the workplace.
The foundation of any organization should be the equality of the individuals within it. I can help cultivate a company culture of diversity and inclusion to foster a positive working environment.
Organizations that invest in leadership programs are 4.2 times more likely to outperform companies that do not (Global Leadership Forecast). If your organization isn’t utilizing leadership training opportunities, it could be missing out on millions of dollars of lost revenue.
94% of employees state that they would remain with a company longer if it invested in their learning and development (LinkedIn Report).
Participants who have undergone leadership training showed their performance increased by 20% (Research Gate).
