Valerie Harwell, President & CEOBehavioral assessments have always been a part of my personal leadership style. It’s no secret that I’ve long been passionate (and vocal) about the importance of recruitment and retention of top talent. The Omnia Group is committed to helping our clients achieve optimum success in hiring top talent and seeing the results in your employee retention, your client retention and thereby, the bottom line! Your biggest assets aren’t listed on your balance sheet…they’re your people; the right people of course. While it may sound corny, good people are assets that never depreciate; they always appreciate! The more you invest in their success, the more you get back. Apart from running my own consulting practice, I came to Omnia with 24 years of service with Wachovia Insurance Services and predecessor companies Davis Baldwin Insurance and Davis Brothers Insurance. During my 7 years running the Florida Region once we’d been acquired by Wachovia, we grew sales by 240 percent and margin by 491 percent with 100 percent client retention during two acquisitions. During that same period, we grew our offices from two to seven and the employee count from 110 to 200. I truly believe the differentiator and driver of these results were the people and the culture we created and nurtured. In fact, I started using Omnia Profiles while I was with Davis Baldwin and Davis Brothers, way back in the mid to late 1980’s. Talk about coming full circle! Selected for talent and managed for peak performance, we were able to create a team and environment that was built on integrity, trust, transparency, communication, mastery, respect, accountability and laughter. By attracting and retaining the right people, we were able to substantially grow our firm and were ranked #1 in the Country by Best Practices. It’s a proven formula and knowing that, I found I was a great fit with The Omnia Group because they too have those same values and objectives. We are committed to providing our clients with keen behavioral insight and world class service! We are excited about the future and look forward to continually bringing you enhanced product features and services. Look for “Omnia in Motion” notices announcing new, innovative tools to drive your business forward. Omnia is committed to moving forward with our clients’ best interests always at the forefront of everything we do. Top talent drives remarkable results! ~Val Harwell, President/CEO Wondering if behavioral assessments are right for you? |
