What a great message that is... Focus on what matters... Do we, #focus on what matters? This photo is regarding wanting to be on the best 5G net...but it is...in of itself a great question...period. Then I started thinking about my transition from Active Duty service to Corporate America and why I was successful in that transition. After some thought it became clear that it was because I focused on the things that matter, to me. Career: Find a position that pays what I need and has the growth potential to provide stability for at least 5 years, for example. Family: Find a Position that afforded me the flexibility to produce AND take care of things at home. Anyone with kids will understand this! This allowed me to be more present for the moments that matter. Vacation: Find a position that provides a reasonable PTO and Vacation benefit so I can spend more quality time with family & heal up, when I need it. Benefits: Find an employer that not only has a competitive 401K match but also offers stock rewards; not to mention medical benefits (PMP, Eye, Dental). Culture: Find an employer that beats to the sound of a similar drum as my own. Is the employer in alignment with your personal beliefs and values? If so, you will be even more motivated to perform and be involved vs being on an adversarial path at every step. Are you including all these things in your transition planning? Are you trading one for another? I am thankful I found my home at Verizon!

Ending the year by hitting an HR milestone: more than 50% of my staff is justice-impacted. And here’s the unpopular truth - it’s not always easy. Hiring folks that have been exposed to the traumas of our (in)justice system often means a different approach to hiring, onboarding, and day-to-day operations. I don’t always get it right. But I’m committed to creating safe spaces for those I hire AND other employers. We have to be able to talk about the challenges instead of just being cheerleaders for the justice-impacted community. 👀 Here’s my North Star: I wouldn’t ask someone who came home from the military to “figure it out” on day one. It’s a process and one I can trust because, at the center of it, are people like me who just want to put food on the table for their loved ones. It’s not always easy to navigate. But then there are days when, at a job fair, I got to teach someone to waltz because they hadn’t in two decades and had a wedding coming up. HR is weird and sometimes wonderful. It might not always be easy. It is, however, always worth it. Here’s to hitting more goals in 2025. And to more waltzes too! #fairchanceopportunities

🌟 The Value of Fair Chance Hiring 🌟 Fair chance hiring, also referred to as second chance hiring, provides individuals with criminal backgrounds the opportunity to redefine their future. This practice not only opens doors for these individuals, but it also offers employers access to motivated, reliable talent. 🚪 Major companies like American Airlines, General Motors, and Walmart have embraced fair chance hiring and experienced higher employee retention rates and improved workplace diversity. These companies prove that fair chance hiring can be a win-win for both employers and employees. 💡 For college students and others looking to rebuild, demonstrating personal growth, accountability, and resilience is key to convincing employers that they are worth the investment. Crafting a strong resume, securing solid references, and communicating how past challenges have fueled their drive to succeed can make a lasting impression. 💪 #Access #Opportunity #Diversity #Inclusion #Belonging #Community #FairChanceHiring #CareerDevelopment #PersonalGrowth #HirePotential
