By slowing down , you are able to take a step back , reconsider priorities , have a better understanding of what is in front of you and adjust accordingly .

How does Kin + Carta address the talent shortage ? How are you retaining and attracting talent ? Our people are the lifeblood of our business . We put great focus on evolving and bringing our Employee Value Proposition to life so that we are attracting , training , retaining , and growing the best talent . We are committed to remaining nimble and responsive to adapt our policies that fill gaps for our people , like we did with the recent roll-out of our medical travel allowance and transitioning at work policies .
Our B Corp certification is a great talent attractor . More and more people are looking to work for a socially responsible business that can help make a difference in the world .
