See the video here: https://youtu.be/9xfH7mIKTxs. As the CEO & Founder of Atlanta-based Mission Recruit, Patricia Karam (https://www.linkedin.com/in/patriciaekaram/) is driving force introducing human design to corporate America. With more than a decade of experience working with Fortune 500 companies nationwide, she launched Mission Recruit with the vision of delivering best-in-class services by combining the sophistication of a large recruiting company with the heart and personalization of a smaller staffing agency. Her extensive background in the industry started with a corporate recruiting career with a global leader in the IT staffing industry before transitioning to national staffing, as well as positions in strategy and philanthropy. Her strong entrepreneurial spirit is a result of her parents’ influence, immigrants from the Philippines, who taught her life’s most important lessons – and above all – the significance of giving back.  As an HR leader, Kasia Jakarsezian (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kasiajakarsezian/) has more than a decade of experience building and scaling teams in the retail and hospitality industries. Most recently, her focus has been on team development and workplace culture. She believes the modern workplace should highlight our human connection by placing the greatest emphasis on employees’ individual talents, strengths and skills. When managers effectively implement this approach, Kasia has witnessed remarkable results unfold for individuals and entire teams. Kasia’s heart-centered leadership approach is proven to increase overall productivity, improve P&Ls, increase retention and reduce turnover. By incorporating these principles of “Human Design” – Kasia has partnered with corporate leaders and entrepreneurs nationwide to usher in a powerful new paradigm of leadership and workplace culture.
