Is the Pplops Crew Right for You?
Instinctually, you may think not. 😂 Nothing like an awkward brand to make you do a double take, huh?
But let’s dive a little deeper here.
There is a new way of doing business that clearly acknowledges what any seasoned business leader already knows; that people can make or break a business.
The best idea in the most open market can still fail if the right people are not brought on board and developed for success. Yet a focused, aligned, passionate team all rowing in the same direction can find massive success through even the narrowest of passages.
This is the era of People Ops. Aka Pplops. 🤷♀️ Just go with it.
