Hi! I'm Adriana, an MBA and SHRM SCP qualified Culture Strategist. I help business owners develop a strong company culture that enhances their identity, encourages employee engagement, and leads to exceptional performance and results.
Initially, I focused on improving business processes, learning about ISO, Six Sigma, Lean Enterprise, and Project Management. Although successful, I learned that without the right team, success is limited.
I then explored human resources and talent acquisition, aiming to find, train, and retain top talent. However, I discovered even the best team members might leave, showing me that processes and people alone aren't enough for success.
I realized the key to success is creating a strong culture that unites processes and people. It's about more than inspirational quotes; it's about making the culture real through employee actions and attitudes. That’s what I’m here to help you achieve.
