Celebrating Grand Rapids' History

Share This Post:

In November of 2011, the West Michigan based law firm, Smith Haughey Rice Roegee will be moving into the historical Flat Iron Building in downtown Grand Rapids. The project includes approximately 26,600 square feet with the ground floor housing a reception area, elevator and an open tenant space, which was formerly occupied by Blake’s Turkey.

When the project is completed, Smith Haughey will be the only law firm in the nation to have renovated a 150-year old historical building to be LEED certified.

To celebrate the firm’s investment into downtown Grand Rapids, they have hired 8THIRTYFOUR to manage public relations, design, event planning, video production, social media, strategy and more. Below is just some of the recent press that was secured for Smith Haughey.

Skill gaps cost more than turnover. When your team lacks critical thinking and communication, you become the default solution for every problem, pulled away from growth and strategy to handle what employees should be able to figure out on their own.

That`s exactly what Kim talked to buisiness owners about the Michigan Celebrates Small Business Summit, and "not hiring" isn`t the answer.

We created 8THIRTYFOUR Skills Survival School as the fix; it`s an integrated approach, because it has to be. Calculate what turnover is costing you at the link in bio.

Women are redefining success on their own terms. They`re leaving corporate America and starting businesses, where they can determine their own career trajectory.

It`s why Kim started 8THIRTYFOUR nearly 20 years ago.

Own your own power and take what you deserve. Our first Big Deal Energy™ Workshop is on June 23. Link in bio.

The people who have told you to tone it down... they`re just jealous.

People are the hardest part of running a business. They`re also the hardest part to do right.

In our most recent blog, Kim explains the need to teach those skills and the cost if you don`t. It`s why we launched Skills Survival School, our fix to the problem.
