Have you ever heard the term "PEO" and wondered what the heck they are and are they right for your business?  I have!  

Join me as Mo Abulbasal with Insperity joins me to do a deep dive into both the Pros and Cons of contracting with a PEO and gain a better understanding of when it might be the right fit for your company.  

PEO or Professional Employer Organization is a service company that allows its clients to outsource a range of employee management tasks.

Today's episode is the definition of "stepping up to the plate."    

My scheduled speaker canceled at the last minute and I put it out there that I needed a last-minute guest, and Lisa Kruckenberg stepped up to the plate!  

Lisa was already on my mental list of future guests, so I am excited to have her on today.    

Not only is she an expert in individual disability, but I have always admired the way that she tackles the challenges in front of her.  I mean, just take a look at this picture - she summitted Mount Kilimanjaro!  This alone deserves mad respect.  

We will be chatting about disability, books, what it is like to be a woman in a male-dominated field, and of course about what it took to climb that mountain.

Have you ever wished you had someone to talk to about how you are feeling or a specific situation you are going through?  Preferably not someone in your family.  

If this sounds like you, then you won't want to miss this week's episode of Recipe for Success with Cole Egger, CEO of Listeners on Call!   

We will be joined by a very special guest co-host and my dear friend, Tanya Boyd.  She initially introduced me to Cole and his program and I think it is a wonderful service and fills a very big void in today's society.
