Maui,
HI, January
10, 2008: Leili McKinley, Managing Partner of Soaring
Phoenix LLC will present two classes through VITEC, Maui
Community College's Office of Continuing Education. The
A&B Foundation provided the grant to make it possible
for these classes to be offered to support the popular
A&B Small Business Training Series.
Mrs.
McKinley will offer
two classes. The first is Start an Email Newsletter-Stay
Connected to Your Clients! to learn how to use a low
cost, internet integrated method of marketing. The second
class Hiring (and Firing!) Practices for Small Business
helps small business owners find and keep great people
and avoid any legal pitfalls.
As
quoted in the Maui
Weekly
"Regarding
class content, Instructor Leili McKinley said, “My classes
span in two directions because I do small business consulting
and I develop classes specifically for people in business
and small businesses within a tight labor market. I put
together a class on hiring and human resources because
young businesses stumble over this. A piece that’s missing
is new technologies that help with marketing, [such as]
email newsletters. [They are] perhaps something new and
scary, but have been around for five years. We’re trying
to offer a new technology that can be integrated into
Internet technology. It is a very cost effective technology
that is cheap and easy to use.”

with human resources for today’s small business owner.
Haiku,
Hawaii. February 24, 2008 – Small business owners have
a new tool for employee recruiting, training,
and management: a new eBook, The Human Capital Toolkit.
The
eBook was developed by Management Consulting firm Soaring

owners. Aimed at companies that have 0 to 10 employees,
the eBook is designed to help them plan their workforce
development, reduce the cost of employee turnover and
implement performance management.
It
walks small business owners through a step by step system
developed by Leili McKinley, managing partner of Soaring
Phoenix, as a successful entrepreneur. Roger McKinley,
contributing editor, fine tuned the approach based on
leading practices in HR, from large companies like Accenture,
refined to fit a small business framework.
The
guide book breaks down the process into two core components.
The first half of the book focuses on understanding the
hiring process, employee development, employee motivation,
employee retention, and lawful termination, while paying
heed to both the federal and state laws pertaining to
employment.
The
eBook also examines the key elements of employee screening
by developing good interviewing skills, outlining over
25 behavioral interview questions that small business
owners and managers should ask.
The
second component of the book provides over 50 + Human
Resources Forms. Examples are: employee evaluations, offer
letters, performance reviews, and employee accident reports.
"Small
Business Owners suffer many demands on their time already,
but it is imperative for them to develop a stellar workforce
if they are to grow. Getting organized to be compliant
can waste hours of time," says Leili McKinley, managing
partner of Soaring Phoenix LLC. "No more -- this
eBook guides owners and managers to blend traditional
Human Resources and leading practices in Human Capital
to achieve results in recruitment, efficiency, morale
and retention."
