Kim Shepherd

CEO
kshepherd@dtoolbox.com

As CEO, Kim Shepherd leads the company"s growth strategy, primarily through developing partnerships, alliances and as an active member of the Los Angeles and Orange County human resources community. A recognized "Thought Leader" by HR organizations nationwide including the Human Capital Institute, Kim is a regular speaker at national and regional events on the topic of recruitment best practices, recruitment process outsourcing, and the ?virtual? business. Drawing on her many years of hands-on recruitment experience, Kim also plays a strong role in company operations.

Kim joined Decision Toolbox in 2000, and brought her unconventional approach to the company she had admired as a client. Today Decision Toolbox is 100% virtual, with more than 60 team members working remotely across the U.S. This unique business model played a key role in the company being awarded the 2009 Alfred P. Sloan Award for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility.

Previously, Kim was Vice President of Recruitment at South Coast Rehabilitation Services where she expanded revenues from $3M to $100M, founder and Director of Profile Strategies, a specialized recruitment firm, and National Director of Recruitment Services at Strategic HR Services, a $60M outsourced Human Resources group. Calling Kim unconventional is an understatement—her past life includes 10 years as a TV and Foreign Correspondent, a stint at Club Med and a near miss at a spot on the Olympic ski team.

Kim is an active member of the Adaptive Business Leaders Executive Roundtable and the National Association for Women Business Owners (Orange County Chapter). She is on the Board of Trustees for Girls Incorporated of Orange County, is a member of the Orange County United Way"s Women"s Philanthropy Fund, and serves on the Board of Directors for the American Heart Association of California"s Go Red for Women Movement.
