Are you a champion for mental health but not local to the Cincinnati region? Our annual Scurry raises funds for mental health initiatives at Lindner Center of Hope, OneQuest Health, and the Adapt for Life and Zero Su***de programs at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center.

The event doesn’t just rely on in-person team participants. Sponsorships and individual monetary or raffle donations of any kind will help us reach our goal of raising $60,000.

Imagine modernizing a city without closing it for construction. Roads still need to move people, power still needs to flow, and every change affects something else. That's what leading organizational transformation feels like today.

On September 29, we're bringing together four executives who know this ground firsthand: https://hubs.ly/Q04tHBLr0

TiER1 President Katie Frey will moderate a candid conversation with:
• Melanie Steinbach, 4X CHRO and Co-founder, L Advisors
• Olivia Walsh, VP Learning, Solventum
• Leah Landis, VP of Talent Development, PatientPoint
• Troy Rudloff, Senior Vice President, Business Transformation, Reynolds Consumer Products

You'll discover:
• What transformation demands of leaders today
• How to create the conditions for healthy performance amid continuous change
• How to spot the signals that your organization needs to adjust before performance declines

This conversation is for senior leaders living this work, who want to think alongside others doing the same.

Meet TiER1 Performance's newest Strategic Partner: Melanie Steinbach!

Melanie's passion for people, culture, and business strategy is grounded in deep expertise connecting all three to drive business performance. Her specific offerings include executive profile assessments, leadership team effectiveness, and succession planning. Combined with TiER1's strengths in organizational performance, strategy ex*****on, leadership development, and culture transformation, this partnership sharpens our ability to accelerate client growth and transformation by closing the gap between strategy and ex*****on.

Melanie has served as Chief Talent Officer at McDonald's and Chief People Officer at MasterClass, Cameo, and Milliken, following 15 years in executive search at Russell Reynolds and Spencer Stuart. She continues to lead L Advisors, the firm she co-founded to help companies turn strategic intent into measurable results by aligning talent, structure, and organizational systems with business goals. Now she brings that same strategic rigor to select TiER1 engagements.

It's always inspiring to see our team roll up their sleeves for the community! Last week, TiER1ers Katie Frey, Sarah Ehrnschwender, Anna Grome, and Mark Hilvert worked alongside TiER1 alum Danyele Harris, whose commitment to service inspired the day, to support Habitat for Humanity's "Build the Block" effort in Hamilton, Ohio. They helped move three different homes forward in the build.

Habitat for Humanity has helped families in our community build stability and homeownership for decades. We're proud to be a small part of that work.

Last week, we had the privilege of welcoming Dr. Michael Groat and Jennifer Pierson from Lindner Center of Hope. Dr. Groat shared valuable insights on the importance of mental health awareness, how to recognize when someone may be struggling, and the many ways Lindner Center of Hope serves as a vital resource for individuals and families in our community.

We're proud that Lindner Center of Hope is one of the beneficiaries of proceeds from The Scurry, taking place on Friday, September 25.

15 years. Countless connections. One meaningful mission. 💙
For 15 years, The Scurry has brought people together to support mental health through teamwork, laughter, and a little friendly competition. What started as an Amazing Race-style fundraiser has grown into a community tradition that has raised more than $500,000 for Cincinnati local mental health initiatives.
As we celebrate this milestone, we're looking back at the teams, challenges, costumes, high-fives, and memories that have made The Scurry so special. Every clue solved, every challenge completed, and every connection made has helped create greater awareness, strengthen our community, and support lifesaving mental health programs.
Join us on Friday, September 25 as we celebrate 15 years of making every step count. Whether you register a team, become a sponsor, donate, or cheer others on, you'll be part of something bigger than yourself.

Emergent transformation requires a different kind of leader, one that creates the conditions for people and organizations to adapt, align, and perform amid constant change.

Carol Seymour, Founder of Signature Leaders, shares her perspective on what makes an effective leader during periods of transformation.

They bring clarity when the future is uncertain, foster trust through ambiguity, and empower others to navigate complexity with confidence.

As organizational transformation becomes increasingly emergent and complex, TiER1 Performance is strengthening how it delivers impact for clients with our first Chief Transformation Officer (CTrO).

Katie joined TiER1 in 2023 through the acquisition of THRUUE, bringing extensive experience advising commercial and nonprofit organizations on strategy, leadership alignment, and building high-performing cultures.

Her appointment reflects our continued investment in helping clients align every dimension of transformation, from leadership and customer experience to operations and organizational change. Our goal is to help clients ensure change isn't just planned, but understood, adopted, and sustained.

Congratulations Katie!

Wishing everyone a safe, meaningful, and joyful July 4 weekend! It's a time to reflect on the ideals that unite us, while acknowledging the work still ahead.

AI is reshaping the mechanics of work. As more tasks and elements of work move to AI, people remain accountable for the outcomes, decisions, and impact that matter most. This challenges us to rethink our roles, examine how work gets done, and rebuild around the human judgment, creativity, and leadership that create the greatest value.

That was one of the key takeaways from Hunt Scanlon Media's Powering an AI-Driven Workforce conference, where TiER1's Emanuel Lewis joined industry leaders to discuss how organizations are scaling AI, reimagining work, and seeing ROI in AI investments.
