When ARK partners come together for a WIN! 🙌
Our client, Georgia Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (GACDL), recently made the decision to switch payroll providers as part of a broader internal operational efficiency plan we had been discussing toward the end of Q4. During a conversation yesterday morning, we aligned on the clear benefits of making a change at the start of a new quarter.
There was just one small catch — it was January 7, and payday is January 15. 😅
Thanks to our strong partnership with Justworks, we moved fast and stayed focused. An initial setup call at 5:00pm yesterday, onboarding this morning at 11:30am, and by 4:00pm, everything was fully configured and ready for payroll.
This simply doesn’t happen without exceptional partners. Huge thanks to the incredible team at Justworks, including Cassidy Farrell and Lindsay Ryan, and to GACDL’s Executive Director, Mazie Lynn Guertin, JD, MPA, whose organization and responsiveness made this transition seamless.
This is what we strive for every day at ARK Leadership — Built on trust. Delivered with impact. 💙
