I believe a key difference in which companies succeed and fail lies in how they select, cultivate, and develop their employees. I joined Modern because I want to be part of a team that is building a disruptive (and evidence-based) approach to Talent and Culture, while working with like-minded individuals and bettering our communities at the same time.
