Solutions:

Alana has been involved in building numerous unicorns since 2004. Scaled from early stage to 1000's. She knows what it looks like to grow, successfully and not.

Unicorns think, act and invest differently. They know recruiters don't hire, their teams do.

Alana has created "The Successful Hiring Playbook", workshops and programs.

Alana simplifies it for you. She coaches and trains you. You become sought-after by candidates and customers.

It's never too early to get hiring right, but it can be too late.
