Working with Marlia
"When we started our IT Professional Services firm, we knew that onboarding new employees and adopting them into our culture was a top priority. My partner and I had been lucky to be a part of some great organizations in the past, but we wanted to put our own mark on how we'd bring the values we cared most about to our culture. As we grew, we realized we needed more than good intentions—we needed a formalized structure that would support our consultants' growth while aligning their development with our performance goals. Knowing this would be critical to our future success, we partnered with Marlia, and we couldn't be happier.
Marlia was instrumental in designing a Professional Development program that truly captured our culture and values while building the framework we needed to scale.
She dove deep into understanding our business, reviewing the specific hard and soft skills required for each consulting role and mapping them against our strategic objectives. Working closely with our team, she developed a custom competency model that redefined what it means to excel at Comet—complete with clear performance expectations tied to each level of our organization.
The transformation has been remarkable. It’s easier to attract, hire, and retain talent that is aligned to what we’re trying to do at Comet, helping us fight churn and save costs that come with it. Our role descriptions now clearly articulate the competencies and skills needed for success, giving both current employees and candidates a transparent view of expectations and growth paths. The skills management platform Marlia implemented has become central to how we operate—we use it to enhance professional development, quickly identify internal resources for current client needs, and develop skills for future opportunities. From leadership down to our consulting team, we've seen better alignment, stronger performance, and deeper engagement. Our team members feel more connected to their careers here at Comet than ever before."
