A people-centered employee retention strategy is critical to keeping your top talent from leaving your company. And our guest for today is the perfect resource person for this topic.

In this week’s episode, I sit down with Vanessa Cacho, a brilliant business and human resource consultant, to talk about future-proofing your workforce through retaining and developing great talent.

Throughout her career, Vanessa has worked with private and commercial companies, supporting all businesses. She saw firsthand how the absence of “The 3 E’s” made a difference in one’s career choice and trajectory and how those have disproportionately impacted Black and Brown people.
