Resource Counselor
HelpMeTy.com
My main focus while at HelpMeTy was quality customer service while running day to day operations. It was during this time I developed the 80/20 rule. 

80% of customer complaints can be handled in 20% of the time and often the other 20% of customer complaints will take up the other 80% of the time. Customers want speed, but they also want to be heard. A true customer experience professional understands this concept and applies it with skill and grace. That is how you create brand evangelists from even the most downtrodden customer.

I accomplished this many times over at HelpMeTy and still carry the skill with me today.

        Astrid is a professional I recommend for any organization. In her role as HR Director at a time when our Employer was going through Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Astrid was a calming force. She understood every aspect of her position, was informative, authoritative and helpful. She has excellent suggestions for resource allocation, is organized and exceptionally detailed. Astrid also has good questions, is curious and added value to my department with her thoughts on resource usage.
