Strong Suit 199: Is There Nothing That Moms Can’t Do?


I’m always on the hunt for untapped sources of great talent. With record-low unemployment, you’ve gotta dig deep.
And I found one.
Allison O’Kelly created Mom Corps out of necessity. In 2003, she was a mom with 2 kids under 2. A talented MBA & CPA, she realized that full-time work wasn’t practical at the moment.
So, she created the perfect job for herself. Then, she made it her mission to help other experienced professionals so the same.
Today, Mom Corps has grown to a nationwide talent advisory, search, and staffing firm.
Allison’s received the Ernst & Young Entrepreneurial Winning Woman Award, and been featured on The Today Show.
In this 20-minute interview, she reveals what she’s learned along the way. How to tap into this massive talent pool. And the biggest mistakes to avoid.
