“Just as the CFO helps the CEO lead the business by raising and allocating financial resources, the CHRO should help the CEO by building and assigning talent, especially key people, and working to unleash the organization’s energy”.

“As a start-up biotechnology company, we experienced explosive growth during the 2020 pandemic. But growth during pandemic times brought its own challenges. Due to fast paced growth coupled with working remotely, we were not able to devote our desired time to onboarding, team and culture building and knew we needed to take a different approach. We were introduced to Mariana who came on board and quickly diagnosed our needs and put together two-day session for the new management team devoted to revisiting our core values, culture and organizational processes. Her sessions were timely, right on target, and beneficial for today’s work environment.”
