HR SOUNDCHECK – APRIL 2025 NEWSLETTER

🌷 PLANT LEADERS. GROW RESULTS.

What the Best HR Teams Cultivate Before Others Even Start...

While walking down Michigan Avenue, I saw a white tulip standing tall among unopened buds. It reminded me of great HR leaders—those who bloom quietly and confidently.

✔ Spot quiet high-potential
✔ Water your culture with recognition
✔ Build momentum before it’s urgent

Try This:

✔ Give a shout-out to someone who raised the bar
✔ Start meetings with praise per person
✔ Share a small act that made a big impact

🌷 ZACH’S TIP OF THE MONTH

"Sometimes the right hire is already on your team. And sometimes the next great leader is just waiting for water and sunlight."

Why it Matters:

Before your next external search, look inward. Who's showing quiet readiness?
