About this ebook

Being a successful entrepreneur is exhilarating, but it’s not for the faint of heart. In business today, being good is merely the entry fee. In order for your business to thrive, you must be consistently exceptional. No one knows that better than Leslie McIntyre-Tavella, who, at the age of only twenty-two years old—without a high school diploma and with the odds stacked against her—started her own business, which she bootstrapped into a $20 million award-winning firm. 

     Framing Success highlights Leslie McIntyre-Tavella’s keys to entrepreneurial success, including how to

• build a strong foundation to construct a solid business;

• find and secure a rock-star crew through strategic and unconventional talent optimization practices;

• cut through the distractions and noise of a business and quickly get to the root issues;

• provide outstanding engagement for your customers;

• articulate, share, and grow your vision.

     The lessons Leslie offers aren’t things you can learn at Harvard Business School; they are crucial lessons she learned on the job. Now you can take her hard-earned, practical, and invaluable experience and create your own rewarding blueprint for entrepreneurial triumph and success!

About the author

Leslie McIntyre-Tavella has devoted her entire career to people: counseling them, placing them in life-changing opportunities, and providing “best in class” talent to customers who pride themselves on “people first.” Leslie developed these skills by cultivating a culture that fostered teamwork and comradery, and she retained her employees twice as long as the industry standard. Finding, hiring, and retaining the right people is the secret sauce to

building a solid foundation and the winning ingredient needed to succeed wildly!

     Leslie launched her first start-up organization thirty years ago to bring a different service paradigm to the recruiting and staffing industry. Her prior company became a $20 million company and won numerous awards, including first place in “Best Places to Work” and eleventh place for the top “Women-Owned Businesses in Connecticut.” Leslie is a progressive leader and entrepreneur who’s comfortable collaborating and engaging with C-suite executives in a wide range of industries. She has held leadership and membership roles in various industry groups, including a board position at Dress for Success and chairman for the Connecticut chapter of the American Staffing Association. Leslie has also written for several periodicals and magazines.

     After three years away from the staffing industry, Leslie realized that her perspective had shifted to reveal new insights on where the gaps are today in HR and optimization, customer engagement, culture and team alignment, and talent acquisition. Leslie’s new start-up focuses on managed services for human resources, customer engagement, and teaching firms how to optimize their talent pipeline. Culpeo HR, where culture meets people, partners with small businesses to enhance people, production, performance, and profitability.

     When Leslie is not spending time innovating and addressing customers’ needs, she is busy renovating homes, condos, and office buildings. She loves taking something that is shabby and rundown and giving it a new life. Leslie just finished her thirteenth renovation—a farmhouse and barn in Fairfield, Connecticut, where she currently resides with her husband.
