149 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 6 TA I LORED MANAGEMENT Beach, President/CEO of Tailored Management. “Two years ago, it was commonplace for people to go into work and put in their 40 hours a week. In the last year and a half, suddenly, the pandemic created this level of expectation that workers can forever remain remote. And that is the challenge both for employers and employees. Employees got comfortable working from home, not having to make that drive. But employers, on the other hand, are worried about culture, connection, communication, and collaboration, which all lack in a remote world.” This scenario is worlds away from the work environment Beach launched his company into, when the work environment was more straightforward. He shares how the company started and how it has evolved to where it is today: “I started the company 20 years ago. Before that, I had worked in the recruitment and staffing industry for around 10 years, at one time working for a national staffing company where I learned a lot of what I know. I left because I did not match well with the large corporate infrastructure, with all of the politics and a lot of the messaging that just didn’t agree with me. I chose to start my own business, which I ran out of my bedroom.” Then, everything changed one day, when one of his larger clients asked Beach’s company to help them recruit for a facility in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Although this was a significant opportunity for Tailored Management, it was quite unusual, especially with how the industry worked at the time. President/CEO, Brad Beach
