Episode 32 of The Perfect Route features a 1:1 interview with Mikayla Trinkley of The Summit Country Day School in Cincinnati.
What does it look like when HR stops being a compliance function and starts being a strategic one? I came away with a lot to think about:
- A 3-year pay equity initiative that transformed faculty trust and engagement
- Why the signals of learning ROI matter as much as the metrics
- An endowed professional development fund that sends faculty to conferences, with substitute teaching coverage arranged
- How to make mandatory training something people actually want to attend!
- Why HR needs a seat at the senior leadership table—and what’s lost when it doesn’t
JW Marriott said it best: take care of your people and they’ll take care of your guests. Mikayla has built her career on that truth—and the results speak for themselves.
