Bio
Russ Cofano
I had the pleasure of working with Lorraine Gauvin during my tenure as President of eXp World Holdings/eXp Realty. I inherited an organization that was moving fast and lacked significant HR infrastructure. I needed someone who had "been there, done that" to come in and begin building our HR function. Enter Lorraine Gauvin. Lorraine is a seasoned HR leader who understands what it means to start from scratch. Knowing that we could not "build Rome in a day", Lorraine developed a logical, systematic and priority defined plan. Once we agreed on the plan, Lorraine marshalled internal resources and worked tirelessly to accomplish the agreed goals without needed a lot of my time. She is professional, organized, possesses high integrity and is a genuinely nice person. I would highly recommend her for organizations in flux or at the beginning stages of development. You will get your money's worth with Lorraine, and then some.

Lorraine worked with Ivy Softworks in its initial days of growth, where she became a trusted partner in supporting our needs in building and developing the team. Lorraine understood the balance between the challenges of working on behalf of employees, but without losing sight of the business or management objectives that required our team's engagement. I particularly enjoyed Lorraine’s involvement with our management team to understand how our strategy needed to be executed in terms of recruiting for, and developing, our team to support our growth plans. She did this by engaging with us at a business level and demonstrating to us that she understood what our key drivers were for success. It is impossible to stress how critical this is for a software business, where human capital is crucial to our ability to execute successfully.
