Welcome back to Messy in the Middle with my guest, Kira La Forgia. Kira has had a decade of experience in people operations in the corporate world and is no stranger to the sensitive issues involved in the human side of running a business. There is a lot to learn from hiring, onboarding, training, and managing performance of over 500 employees for a multi-million dollar business.
The good news is - she learned it all so you don't have to!
Kira founded Paradigm to bridge the gap between corporate HR policies meets the modern needs of online business entrepreneurs. In part 1 of our interview, she is telling us all about her business journey and how she embraces her messy middle!
