The girls who get it, get it.
And when it comes to leaning into a leadership style that’s both intentional and impactful, LoriAnn Kuntz gets it.
LoriAnn is the owner and CEO of Profit Priority, a boutique accounting and fractional CFO firm on a mission is to help creatives feel peace about their numbers – something that feels elusive to many entrepreneurs – while growing their profit and confidence.
Despite never planning to hire and manage employees, LoriAnn’s business needs evolved and with it – her team’s structure.
And sure, many aspects of leadership and management came naturally to LoriAnn. But what makes her the type of leader we can all learn from is her intentionality.
We had such a great convo about:
- The financial ins and outs to consider before hiring a team member.
- The mental gymnastics (hello, mindset shifts) of moving from working with contractors to managing PT or FT employees.
- LoriAnn’s results from our Leadership Archetype Quiz, and how that’s helped her better understand her leadership approach.
- Why great leadership doesn’t just matter in the here and now – it can change employees’ lives for years to come.
- And the ultimate power move: hiring people who might just be smarter than you.
It’s one thing to chat about these principles through our typical HR lens; it’s another to hear them straight from someone who’s in the trenches, leading and learning every day.
Give it a listen and let us know what you think!
