Termination Letters??

Employee Changes

Kristin: Do I need to send a termination letter when an employee resigns or is terminated?

Yes, you should document all employee changes; hire, job title, salary/hourly rate, leave of absence, termination/resignation! Include the effective date, who made the decisions, and a spot for the employee to sign as needed. It ensures that you and the employee are on the same page and that documentation is in place should questions come up.

Kristin: Do you have sample forms I can use?

Yes! KLO has a variety of forms and reference materials for our clients to use in their work. Contact us today to discuss!

The Coach
The Coach

At KLO, I have been working with a group of clients who have asked for my help as a “business coach”. People may need a business coach for a variety of reasons. Maybe they are a small business owner and don’t have someone to bounce things off of. Perhaps they work in a larger business but need perspective from someone that doesn’t work with them.

Testimonials 2

I have been consistently impressed with Kristin and with her knowledge, experience, and insights. She is able to listen to her clients and pick up on points of conflict/contention - in both personal and professional situations. She possesses an ability to pose observations and encourage change in a way that doesn't put others on the defensive. I highly recommend KLO!

KLO has helped us to build and strengthen our struggling employee culture, and helped us identify and zero in on specific areas of needed growth within the company. Kristin took this issue that felt overwhelming and helped to break it down into smaller, achievable action steps.

Kristin is a really great listener. She lets us talk, asks great questions, and is able to see and also help us to see the bigger picture and identify what needs to be done. Kristin is great at bringing together different personalities, guiding and facilitating conversations, and helping to get people on the same page.

Kristin is so upbeat and helps you be able to think outside of the box. She also has a personal connection with her contacts that makes you feel like you are family. She makes herself available outside of normal business hours for situations that may arise.

My coaching session with Kristin was fantastic! She provided me insight into my strengths and gave me points to ponder. Her active listening skills are top-notch, and I really appreciate her ability to articulate. Her talents as a coach made our session feel fluid yet focused. I finished our time together with a new pride in my talents, some challenging self-reflection, and action points to work on right away. I highly recommend Kristin with KLO!
