Join your HR Practitioners, Angela Hooper-Menifield & Robin K. Butler as they discuss POWERFUL PIVOTS in 2020. Powerful Pivots includes guest HR Practitioner Ayo Thomas.
Ayo Thomas is a highly enthusiastic Chief Creative Officer with a comprehensive background in developing Human Capital strategies to drive business growth, and creating a culture of excellence for creative talent and women's empowerment.
As the Chief Visionary behind Women Own Excellence Magazine. Ayo used her creative gifts in content creation and media to produce the digital go-to guide for women seeking to soar in their personal and professional lives. In a short amount of time, WOE has become a trusted publication for its everyday readers and influencers who grace the cover. Such dedication has allowed Ayo to be featured on Huffington Post, Fox 45 Baltimore, Shaderoom, Good Day Washington, Bravo TV Online, Afro News Paper, Fashion Bomb Daily, Google D.C., and other major media outlets.
From there, Ayo’s intuition led her to merge the HR and creative proficiency she acquired over the years, forming Galore Creative Staffing.
GCS is a minority woman-owned agency designed to introduce emerging and highly skilled creative talent who are on the upswing of being at the forefront of their industries.
With over a decade of Human Capital experience, Ayo served as an HR Consultant for small and medium-sized businesses in both private and public sectors. Throughout her successful career, Ayo provided employers such as Johns Hopkins Hospital, DC Government, and MGM National Harbor expert advice and counsel in the areas of Employee and Labor Relations, Organizational Development, Talent Management, and other core HR functional areas. Ayo holds several HR training certifications and is a proud graduate of Cornell University Women’s Entrepreneurship Program.
