Rock Your Reinvention: Tips For High-Achieving Women Who Want to Successfully Exit Their Six-Figure Corporate Career

9: Retaining Young Professionals in the Workplace with Kamber Parker of YoPro Know

Karin Freeland Episode 9

Kamber Parker wasn’t setting out to create one of the most innovative and booming businesses in Greenville, SC but that’s exactly what happened when she used blogging as her creative outlet to deal with a pain point at work. 

You read that right! What started as a blog interviewing other young professionals in the corporate environment has become a full-scale research-based consulting firm. 

YoPro Know helps bridge the gap between ambitious young professionals and the progressive businesses who want to recruit, engage, and retain them.

In this episode Kamber breaks down: 

  • Her own personal career reinvention and why she exited corporate to start her business
  • How she got the knowledge she needed to launch and scale her business (and why you shouldn’t be afraid to ask questions) 
  • The current workforce crisis that organizations of all sizes are experiencing 
  • What research says about Millennials and Gen Z in the workforce (and my candid opinion about why everyone is secretly hating on Millennials, but shouldn't be) 
  • Her experience with coaches and how to find the right fit for you and your business  
  • The current trends she’s seeing in her research and why your organization is losing your best talent (Hint, Hint: She echoed reason #1 from my solo podcast Ep. 8: 4 Reasons Why Women Leave the Workforce)

Lastly, she shares her best advice for those of you out there wanting to make a change. Whether you’re leading a team or looking to make your corporate exit, this episode has something inspiring for you.
