Our Clients Speak For Us

The team at Calaway Habeck Talent Consulting—Zack, Erica, and Jaynanne—made hiring our first Chief People & Culture Officer (CPCO) a very positive experience. 

They were true partners. They listened well, identified candidates that were well aligned with our needs, communicated wonderfully throughout the entire process—through phone conversations and written summaries of candidates’ strengths, compensation expectations, and fit with our mission—and ultimately found a CPCO who is exceeding all expectations! 

I will not hire a senior leader without them in the future!

– Kristen Wild, President & CEO, Operation Food Search

"Jaynanne was the first Compass Guide (aka Operating Partner with deep functional expertise) for our firm. I believe she has been engaged in some form or fashion in nearly every one of our portfolio companies. Her business mind and holistic mindset has made for a strategic partner and impact player across our teams.  She's a critical asset for Compass Group."

– John Huhn, Managing Partner, Compass Group Equity Partners

"I have worked with Jaynanne on multiple business issues and projects over the last four years. She is a wonderfully unique blend of strategic thinking that she effectively translates to practical, tactical execution. She is creative, inquisitive, and intelligent. She is both supportive and challenging at the same time. She is truly the model of what HR, as a business partner, should be. And she does all this with a contagious sense of joy and enthusiasm which make working with her a real pleasure."

– Mike Higgins, CEO, EPIC Systems

"It was an impactful {leadership development} day and the feedback from our team has been positive. Looking forward to the next one."

– Tom Schmidt, CEO, Salt + Smoke

I first had the opportunity to work with Jaynanne at Panera in a franchisee relationship when I was the VP of HR for Breads of the World and she led HR for Panera corporate.

Jaynanne is a strategic business thinker with the willingness to roll up her sleeves and get the tough stuff done alongside her clients.

She pioneered a Franchise HR Roundtable at Panera which brought together franchisees to learn from one another without crossing the fine line of co-employment in the franchise world.

Jaynanne is a true business professional who has deep knowledge in all aspects of Human Resources and beyond.
