Another Top Talent Leaves a Legacy Outplacement Firm For RiseSmart, the Industry Leader in Innovation and Outcomes












San Jose, CA (PRWEB) January 03, 2012

RiseSmart, the leading provider of next-generation outplacement solutions, has named former Lee Hecht Harrison vice president of organization development and client relations Heather Swift to the role of regional vice president. Swift’s move continues a trend of top performers selecting to leave legacy firms to join RiseSmart.

At LHH, Swift was responsible for establishing strong relationships with important clients in order to support core company and drive revenue. She was recognized eight occasions for her exceptional efficiency as a member of LHH’s President’s Leadership Circle.

“The addition of Heather will significantly strengthen our sales force by making solid representation throughout all regions of the United States,” said Kim Johnson, RiseSmart’s vice president of sales, who came to RiseSmart in September from Drake Beam Morin (DBM). “With 17 years of knowledge in the talent management industry and a record of sales growth across numerous organization lines in Fortune 500 organizations for LHH, Heather will serve as an integral asset in the growth plans for RiseSmart.”

Swift said, “It is exciting to join such an innovative firm. RiseSmart is providing some thing that has been missing in our industry — directly connecting candidates to qualified job openings. While other outplacement firms talk about results-oriented services, RiseSmart really gives them: The resume, the cover letter, the scrubbed job leads, the unlimited 1-on-1 career coaching assistance. In this competitive job marketplace, RiseSmart’s services are specifically what workers want to move forward and land faster. RiseSmart is setting a new standard of finest practices in the industry.”

Swift’s passion to make a difference led her in 2009 to launch her own television show, “The Career Corner.” As creator, producer and host, she gives career assistance, conducts interviews with talented and knowledgeable colleagues, and shares her experiences in the talent management space.

Prior to her tenure at LHH, Swift held an account executive position at Staffmark, Inc., a Leading ten commercial staffing business, and worked as a individual staffing representative at The TemPositions Group of Firms, 1 of the largest regional staffing firms in the U.S.
