Effective engagement strategies are crucial for retaining talent. Improving engagement starts with understanding your company culture.

Co-founders of Joy of Pursuit
and co-authors of
The Team Solution Series:
HR Coaching to Grow Teams and Profit.

With our combined work history of over sixty years, we’ve seen it all. From bad interviews, poor hiring decisions, no org charts to bad org charts, too many ideas on how a company should be run, and sadly we’ve seen management that has no idea how to run a business. Just because you can sell one good idea, doesn’t mean you know how to run a profitable business with a viable team.

Because we are both integrators by nature—we take big ideas and break them down into functional and repeatable processes—we saw a huge gap and decided to fill it. In January 2022, we released the first book in our Team Solution Series, The Hiring Process. The timing of this series was purely Divine. We had no idea what the pandemic would do to the job market and team culture across companies.

When we started Joy of Pursuit, we intended to bring JOY back to the workplace both for ourselves and for all the entrepreneurs struggling to build their businesses. We knew it had to start with the foundation, and we believe that a foundation begins with responsible leadership and an accountable team. After releasing Book 1 with tremendous results, we completed the series with three additional books that walk business builders through how to properly run the people side of their business.

So many businesses focus on their clients and lose focus on their people—their team. Whether that team is internal or made up of contractors and vendors, having the right people in the right seats is critical, and keeping them there is vital to your company's success.

Here’s what we see: Companies with responsible and accountable leadership, clear vision along with defined boundaries are the businesses succeeding. Companies big or small that value their teams and reflect their appreciation with competitive pay, generous benefits, and a healthy culture are the ones with a stable bottom line. A happy team equals happy clients and happy clients tell others.

Whether you’ve established a team or are just starting out, we invite you to join us at our upcoming workshop and bring more JOY to your workplace by focusing on the people component of your business.

What Business Leaders Are Saying

In my role as a workforce development professional, I am increasingly seeing workers leave their jobs as they strive for more work-life balance. It is an employee’s market, as doors continue to open with new opportunities that allow more flexibility. During the time of the “Great Resignation,” employers must be purposeful and aggressive about both recruiting and retaining talent. This book provides practical strategies to create a positive workplace culture and imparts simple tools to reduce turnover and establish a team that feels valued. 

—Jessica Belitz, Director of Workforce Development, Blount Partnership

From day one of founding my company, I knew the importance of creating a culture that drives success, but I didn't know the HOW. Brenda and Amanda share all the secrets to create a culture that drives both business success and success of your individual employees. Relationships and connections are what make businesses thrive; that's why the practical and effective strategies shared in this book are pivotal in your business success. Brenda and Amanda have left no stone unturned in The Retention Process; it's your key to team success. Invest in your team (starting with this book), and they will invest in your clients and company. When you get the process right, you won't have to worry about your bottom line. It will take care of itself.

Compliance is more than following the rules for the sake of rules. It speaks volumes to your team and clients about their worth. In The Retention Process, Amanda and Brenda share the importance compliance plays in retaining valuable and highly engaged employees. With integrated tools and strategies, this book is a must-read for all companies looking to grow their business through the retention of productive employees.

—Helen Izek, Business Compliance Manager; editor; and author of The Red Road Home

Brenda has always been able to discuss hard stuff with a refreshing and inspiring outlook. I appreciate how she and Amanda bring feelings into the unemotional world of business. People matter. This process to find, manage, and retain a team is an invaluable resource that we as business owners sometimes forget in our day-to-day busyness. This is a poignant and helpful reminder to look up every now and then to pour into your people! People need to be heard, valued, respected, feel intelligent, useful, and appreciated and get paid for it. Having been in sales and marketing in the same area for almost twenty years, I see these simple truths get thrown away in the pursuit of success. So, thank you, Brenda and Amanda, for bringing the essentials back to the forefront of business . . . where it belongs!
