Laura Blair

Laurie was originally hired to develop training for our call center leaders and employees post on-boarding/new hire training. Her expertise, professionalism, leadership, and vision soon made it clear that she was the person to take over and improve the new hire training. She took over the training mid-week without missing a beat, holding training and new employees to a high standard of accountability and professionalism. She is a strong leader with clear performance standards. I am proud to have her on my team, making a difference for the organization to reduce turnover.
