Bio
Terri Holub
Began working with Crystal in mid 2014 and was introduced to a new style of leadership. One that embraced true caring and trust in subordinates. I was always given the opportunity to do and be my best and was supported when there was a need. Crystal has a great since of humor, knows when to be serious and expects her team to be the best they can be. I would enjoy the opportunity to work with Crystal again any time!
Phil Menzel
Crystal is a consummate professional. She has a deep foundational knowledge and capability in all areas of HR based on her breadth of experience. Her ultimate strength is that of a leader of her functional team and as a leader/team member of her line business. Her line leaders have always considered her as their true confidante and the one that will challenge them to higher levels of thinking about people and organizations.
