WHAT I DO IN 25 WORDS OR LESS.
I help financial-services firms find exceptional talent, strengthen employee engagement, and build the leadership, marketing and media capabilities that drive growth.
FINDING THE RIGHT PEOPLE—AND GIVING THEM REASONS TO STAY
For 10 years, I built and led a successful recruiting business specializing in the financial services industry.
Today, I also work directly with leading financial advisory firms on their lead generation, television, media and marketing strategies and execution. That experience gives me a current, firsthand understanding of how successful advisory firms operate—and the people they need to grow.
This is not recruiting from the outside looking in.
I understand the pressures facing financial-services firms, from attracting qualified prospects and building revenue to expanding into new markets and creating stronger internal teams.
I selectively help financial-services organizations recruit:
- Executive and leadership talent
- Revenue-producing professionals
- Marketing and growth leaders
- Media and communications professionals
- Operations and client-service talent
- Specialized financial-services professionals
Every search is handled personally, thoughtfully and confidentially.
EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT AND RETENTION
Finding talented people is only half the challenge. Keeping them engaged, productive and committed is equally important.
I help leaders understand what their employees need to perform at their best—and create workplaces where people feel heard, valued and connected to the company’s mission.
The result can include:
- Stronger employee engagement
- Higher productivity
- Improved collaboration
- Better communication
- Reduced turnover
- Lower talent-acquisition costs
When employees feel passionate about their work and committed to the organization, they contribute more—and are far less likely to leave.
A REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
An entire revenue-producing team within a global company was considering leaving because its members felt unappreciated, unheard and disconnected.
After measuring employee happiness in real time, I designed and delivered a customized workshop that allowed the team to address its concerns and develop solutions collaboratively.
No one left. Engagement and productivity increased, and the division’s revenue grew.
The feedback I received:
“Jody was transformational. She delivered the message we needed to hear, and we came up with fantastic, collaborative solutions. Our entire team loved her.”
“Jody was transformational” remains one of the most meaningful compliments I have received.
PEAK-PERFORMANCE SPEAKING AND COACHING
I also help executives, teams and individuals reach their peak performance during keynotes, speeches, meetings and online or in-person presentations.
Together, we strengthen your message, delivery, presence and confidence so you can engage your audience and make a lasting impact.
The result is not simply a stronger presentation. It is greater confidence in how you communicate, lead and build relationships.
WHO I WORK WITH
I work with:
- Financial advisory firms
- CEOs, COOs and CHROs
- Human resources and culture leaders
- Leadership and revenue-producing teams
- Companies navigating growth or change
- Executives and individuals preparing for important presentations
IS THIS THE RIGHT FIT?
If you are serious about hiring exceptional people, retaining valuable employees, strengthening your culture or helping your leaders perform at a higher level, we should talk.
If you are not genuinely committed to creating meaningful change, I may not be the right person for you.
But if you care about transforming your organization and the people within it, I would welcome a conversation.

Want an example?
I saved an entire revenue generating team from exiting a division of a global company because they felt unappreciated, unheard and disconnected. By measuring happiness IN REAL-TIME, designing and delivering a custom workshop, no one left. Revenues soared, as well as happiness, engagement, and productivity.
What feedback did I get?
“Jody was transformational. She delivered the message we needed to hear and we came up with fantastic, collaborative solutions. Our entire team loved her!”
“Jody was transformational.” Those are three words I love to hear.
You may be thinking…
Well, Jody, HOW MUCH DOES AN EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT PROGRAM COST?
How about this answer?
Less than what you would pay a Recruiter to fill one position.
And as for MEASURING EMPLOYEE HAPPINESS, ENGAGEMENT AND PRODUCTIVITY IN REAL-TIME? Less than the cost of a latte per employee.
This is ME helping you gain COMPLETE control of your workforce’s happiness, engagement, and productivity.
==> DISCLOSURE:
If you don’t have a true desire to save on talent acquisition costs and increase bottom line revenues, then I CAN’T HELP YOU. BUT if you really care about TRANSFORMING your workforce… we should work together.
