Nationally recognized as one of the Top 50 Best Places to Work, SnagAJob.com has made a name for itself as being a great company, and great place to work. CEO Shawn Boyer, named 2008 National Small Business Person of the Year, started the company nine years ago when he saw an unmet need in the area of hiring hourly and part-time workers. The Small Business Administration said of Shawn “Shawn Boyer is a perfect example of the creativity and inspiration it takes to become a highly successful entrepreneur in America today.” Shawn attributes the success of SnagAJob.com on one thing…”our people.” He says “We know that’s how organizations are built – one great person at a time…”? How does a lawyer with little knowledge of running and owning a business become a top employer? What strategies have he and his team implemented that organizations can model in order to achieve similar success? CBIC and ACHRA are honored to have CEO Shawn Boyer explain his philosophy and strategies on building a successful team. He will share how he has built a team of people (or as they call them, “snaggers”) who love what they do. This can’t miss presentation will leave participants with real tools on building, and sustaining, a successful organization “one great person at a time.”
