January 8: Nick Smarrelli, CEO, GadellNet Consulting Services
Nick Smarrelli, CEO of GadellNet Consulting Services, will share the exclusive and innovative programs that have powered the rise of the 6-time Inc. 5000 fastest-growing company. He’ll explain how the IT consulting firm has instituted Leadership Academy (a 6-month training program currently in its 3rd class) and Blue Buddy (a mentor program that has resulted in sky-high onboarding scores for new hires). Attendees will learn new ways to make the employee experience a boon to retention and brand.
GadellNet has offices in both St. Louis and Indianapolis. GadellNet, a 6-time Inc. 5000 fastest-growing company with nearly 75 employees in the Midwest, is a small business outsourced IT consulting firm. The IT Industry in the Midwest has a 40% turnover rate, but GadellNet proudly boasted an 8% turnover rate (both voluntary and involuntary) across both its offices in 2017. The key to their cultural success was the formulation of a very clear set of values that serve as the backbone for nearly every management decision – recruiting, interviewing, performance management. communication, strategic prioritization and compensation.
These values have become more than just words on a wall, but a way of thinking and acting in the company – allowing for individual contributions and diversity of ideas – but, inspired by a common ethos.
Nick has a degree in Psychology and a degree in Finance from St. Louis University. He ran National Account sales for Ingersoll Rand before realizing his passion for entrepreneurship in 2010. Nick is an Ironman athlete, ultramarathon runner, father, and has been a featured technology speaker for chambers of commerce, large national associations, national non-profits, and numerous industry technology conventions.
