How Did Existing Execs “Learn the Ropes” vs How The New Generation Expects to Learn

Posted on April 7, 2019 by Robyn Crigger

When the existing Execs were “learning how to be a Leader” years ago, the hope was to have an existing Leader who was gifted at teaching, training, and developing the younger generation on how to be an Effective Leader. That was true with my husband, Bill Crigger. He was first exposed to a very sharp, …

This is Tommy Burton Vice President of Human Resources for ArrowPointe FCU. I have worked with Compass Career Management for many years primarily using them as a resource to conduct exit interviews with a former employer. I particularly liked the innovative way they interpreted the results to give us information that we could put to use. They are especially skillful at probing to discover the underlying issues that once resolved greatly benefited the employer.

This is just to share my recommendation and endorsement of Robyn Crigger, CEO of Compass Career Management Solutions? I don?t recall how long ago it was when I first spoke with Robyn, but we reconnected a year ago when I needed help with outplacement services for some our employees. She was very gracious in making arrangements and treated our employees with the utmost of respect. Her demeanor and knowledge helped guide and transition our folks through a very difficult time. What an invaluable service. Robyn is upbeat, positive, and always encouraging and supportive to not only employees who need her services, but also to HR professionals. We are often on islands alone it seems, but Robyn is a champion for Senior HR individuals. She hosts HR Forums and invites Senior HR Decision makers to participate. She gathers input from participants ahead of time on the most critical topics to discuss. It is an informal method of sharing concerns, ideas and suggestions to help each other. In the process, we build a network of contacts and support as well. Robyn indeed has a sixth sense. She senses who needs support and in what manner. I am extremely fortunate to have her in my area, but most importantly, as a friend as well.

Last fall, Robyn Crigger facilitated a planning session with members of my Human Resources team. My objective was to get the team focused on our War for Talent as it is critical to our company’s business strategy. During and after the session several of the team pulled me aside to say: “She’s good”. This included both senior and less experienced members. Robyn worked without preconceptions which resulted in the team thinking beyond what we already do. She challenged the group and those who accepted the challenge got the most out of the day. At the end of the day we met my expectations. We came away with action plans and dates and assignments and the team members have followed through.
