Are you a zombie at work - just going through the motions, or are you the leader of a team of zombies? If we capture key principles of friendship, mentorship and leadership, we can increase employee engagement, build thriving workplace cultures and end the workplace zombie apocalypse. Relationships matter, and frientorship™ puts people back in the forefront of a winning business strategy.

Claudia founded The Human Zone after spending more than a decade as an attorney representing public, private and non-profit organizations. Claudia provides strategic, HR-based support aimed at transforming leaders and making great places to work. Claudia also developed Frientorship™, an individual and team development model that encompasses key principles of friendship, mentorship and leadership to bring out the best in people, teams and organizations.

She was named as one of the Central Penn Business Journal’s 25 Women of Influence.
