Power adds military spouse to c-suite
CHESTER, Pa., Oct. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Power Home Remodeling (Power), the nation's largest full-service exterior home remodeling company with an award-winning culture, today announced that veteran HR leader Hollie Delaney has joined the executive team as the company's first Chief People Officer.
In this new role, Delaney will be responsible for advancing the company's people-first culture, elevating the employee experience, and leading Power's people-centric departments including Talent Acquisition, Human Resources, and Special Events. She will also lead the company's three internal initiatives -- Power Cultural Diversity & Inclusion Initiative, Power Women's Initiative and Power Veterans Initiative. She will report to Co-CEO, Asher Raphael.
"Establishing the role of Chief People Officer was a natural progression in our commitment to making Power the best place to work in the country," said co-CEO Asher Raphael. "We knew immediately that Hollie was the perfect fit for this new position not only because of her previous experience building the gold standard of employment brands, but also because of her values and authentic drive to create an environment where people feel safe and thrive."
Prior to assuming the role of Chief People Officer, Delaney held the position of Chief People Strategist for retail innovator and e-commerce company, Zappos, where she led the charge of changing the traditional company structure to one based on trust and distributed authority all within the framework of the Zappos core values. She played a pivotal part in working to deliver happiness and provide the best place for employees to work. Prior to her 14-year tenure at Zappos, Delaney held various HR leadership positions in other organizations such as Wet'n Wild, Marshall Retail Group and Vegas.com. With over 20 years of experience, Delaney brings a unique approach to traditional HR -- one that prioritizes doing right by people, rather than just the interests of the company.
"When I encountered Power, I was reminded of Zappos in the early days and how I felt working there," said Chief People Officer, Hollie Delaney. "Their core values of putting people first, welcoming everyone to bring their true selves to work and creating an inclusive work environment very much align with what I believe in -- it was a natural draw for me. I'm thrilled to join such a talented and people-oriented team and contribute to this mission. Power's culture has uncapped potential, and I'm excited to build on the strong foundation they've built thus far."
