Linda Buses, Managing Director of HR, Tracy Cross and Associates
first hired Margaret (Margo) as a Recruiter in 2003, and hired Margaret (Margo) more than once

 I met Margaret shortly after I was given responsibility for the Human Resource function at my employer, Yaskawa Electric America, a mid sized mfg company. I realized that what we needed was an entirely different view of the Human Resource function at Yaskawa. We needed to shift from a paper processing department to what HR should be at any successful company, the most important department in the company. We needed HR to truly be a strategic partner to YEA senior management. Before that could be done, I needed to improve our systems, processes and structures and to emphasize talent development as our key function. I worked with Margaret and her team to develop a multi year road map for what I wanted HR to be and determined what functions could be outsourced, which resulted in a $7 million savings over a five year period. Then as part of the plan to emphasize talent management as the focus of my HR Department, I worked with Margaret to develop an employment engagement campaign, the development and implementation of a world class emerging leaders program, a competency based hiring & promotion model, a succession planning and performance management process. Over the years, I have treasured Margaret’s honesty, intelligence and vision. I would recommend her and her team to any company that wants a world class Human Resource Department.” December 5, 2009.

 I recently attended Margaret’s CERS certification and Talent Strategy 3.0 class in Las Vegas. It was, by far, the best training class I’ve attended. Margaret’s passion makes her a dynamic speaker. Her forward thinking insight into talent acquisition and retention speaks to her immense knowledge and understanding of the real issues facing today’s employers. Her expertise and wisdom on how to implement these philosophies to add to your offerings, has proved invaluable.

 I recently completed the NAPS Certified Employee Retention Specialist (CERS) immersion class taught by Margaret Graziano. Margaret did an excellent job at providing an in-depth overview of this increasingly important aspect of talent acquisition. Margaret`s passion for the subject was infectious and she made sure to engage the group and make the learning process highly interactive. I strongly recommend that search and staffing professionals looking to take their qualifications to the next level pursue the CERS credential, especially if Margaret is delivering the curriculum!” October 10, 2009
