Leadership Lessons from 15 Years in Technical Consulting & Staffing: Insights from Colin Reposa

Lead by Example & with Passion

Your actions set the standard, and your passion drives results. When you're passionate about your work, it inspires your team to bring their best. In an industry where innovation is key and turnover can be high, enthusiasm makes all the difference.



Understand the Competition

Knowing what your competitors offer helps you stay ahead. To capture your share of the market, it's essential to understand who you’re up against, what’s working for them, what’s not, and most importantly—why.


Listen More Than You Speak

Great leaders listen. By paying attention to your team, clients, and candidates, you gather insights that lead to better decisions. Employees are more engaged when they feel heard by their leaders.

Empower Your Team

Give your team the tools and autonomy they need to succeed. Empowered employees are 67% more likely to exceed expectations, driving better results for your team and business.


Master the Art of Prioritization

In the fast-paced world of tech staffing, it's easy to get lost in the daily noise. Effective leaders prioritize what truly matters, focusing on high-impact activities that drive results. This often means making tough decisions and saying "no" to less critical tasks.


Adaptability is Key

Tech staffing and consulting evolve rapidly—it's estimated that 90% of the world’s data was created in just the last two years. To stay relevant, you must quickly adapt to market changes and guide your team through constant shifts.

Be Transparent

Transparency builds trust. Teams that operate with openness see better performance. Being clear about goals, challenges, and decisions fosters collaboration and loyalty.

Celebrate Wins

Celebrate every success, big or small. Recognizing wins keeps morale high and teams motivated. Find out what motivates your team when goals are met, and use that to keep them driven.
