Bio
Traci Slowinski
Tobi is one of the best HR professionals I have had the pleasure of working with. She is very strategic and a true thought leader. She isn't afraid to put herself out there and introduce new/different ideas and views to pressure test systems, policies and culture to ensure we are doing the right thing, the right way. She has a very approachable personality and engages well with lots of different people. She instills trust and confidence in everyone she works with. And she isn't afraid to be vulnerable if she feels it will help someone else. She is a valuable member of any team she participates on.

Tobi was a great PW partner at Brinker. In fact the best hr personnel that I have ever had experience with in my career. She listened to employees and was never afraid of providing feedback. She helped bridge gaps in communication amongst our team and was wonderful at identifying talent and potential. I see her as an advocate for me in places where I may not have been present.
