Talent Retention Advisory

I advise fast-growing tech companies on reducing turnover by 10-20% to protect revenue and stabilize growth 

Replacing a high-performing employee typically costs between 150–200% of their annual salary

  • You’ve invested heavily in talent. Now it’s time to protect that investment and stabilize your people systems.


  • Inside this 8-week executive advisory, I help founder-led tech companies diagnose why people are leaving, quantify the financial impact, and build a focused plan to stabilize retention.

Introducing: The Talent Retention Advisory

Identify the real problem

What is actually happening

What is actually happening

  • You’ve scaled quickly.
    You’ve hired aggressively.


But now:

  • Retention is less predictable
  • Rehiring costs are rising
  • Execution slows when people exit
  • Leadership bandwidth is stretched


✨ You’re not sure what’s breaking but you know something is

What is actually happening

What is actually happening

What is actually happening

When you grow quickly:


  • Roles evolve faster than they’re defined.
  • Managers are promoted before they’re equipped.
  • Onboarding varies team to team.
  • Performance expectations shift without clarity.

 

These aren’t engagement problems.

They’re structural gaps created by rapid scale.


✨ Until you diagnose those gaps, you’ll keep reacting to exits instead of preventing them.

What makes me unique

  • I began my career in global tech consulting, leading global initiatives and large teams across North America, Europe, and Africa.
  • Along the way, I consistently stepped into complex people challenges, culture transformation, performance clarity, leadership alignment.
  • Today, I bring a consulting lens, a systems mindset, and executive-level judgment to founder-led companies navigating rapid growth.
  • I focus on building clarity where scale creates pressure, ensuring people strategy supports performance and revenue, not just culture

  • Proven experience: I know what works (and what doesn’t) from large tech and media organizations 
  • Tech, AI + people fluency: I help leaders understand and use the tools in ways that support people, not replace them.
  • Global + bilingual: I work in both English and French with multicultural teams
  • Structure + clarity: I design systems to bring order to chaos.
  • Inclusive + empathetic:   I lead with empathy and design strategies where people feel valued.

Retention is only the visible symptom

Turnover is what you see.

But the deeper risk often shows up before people leave: high performers disengage, managers operate without clarity and culture becomes inconsistent under pressure


Stabilizing retention is about protecting the people who remain and strengthening the structure that supports them.


That is where revenue stability begins.

This if for you if:

  • You lead a 50–250 employee tech or media company
  • You operate across multiple regions or are preparing to expand globally
  • Turnover is rising or unpredictable
  • Hiring is accelerating faster than internal structure
  •  You see retention as a business risk, not just an HR metric
