Competing With Corporate - HR Success With Shelly Dretzka

from Books & The Biz · host Dan Paulson and Richard Veltre

Talk to most business owners and they will tell you that hiring and retaining talent is tough. What you probably don't realize is you can be highly competitive getting good people. It's all on your approach. In this episode, we will talk with Shelly Dretzka, owner of aHRrow. About Shelly: After 25 years on the “inside” of HR—navigating everything from high-stakes employee relations to building performance cultures—I took the leap during the pandemic to launch aHRrow, a people-first HR consulting firm for small businesses with less than 100 employees. Bringing multiple decades of HR experience, positivity, and energy, I partner with leaders who are ready to grow, delegate, or simply step away from daily HR headaches.
