Sarah Dahl is a smart, experienced HR person from an innovative and well-managed co-op. She is down to earth and has offered practical counsel to HR Managers around the country. In preparation for growth at my co-op, Sarah shared both her HR best practices in a multi-location co-op and her wisdom, greatly assisting my planning process.

I engaged Sarah Dahl’s investigation process was conducted with professionalism
and respect for the employee’s time. Staff stated that Sarah made them feel comfortable
and made it clear that her main concern was in the best interest of the staff and the Co-op as a whole.
Without the assistance of Sarah, I would have struggled to find some of these issues or what legal action to take. I consider the time and expense of this project as a necessary investment to prevent future losses.

Professional, discrete and very efficient.  I would highly recommend Sarah.  I felt confident with the service and results.  I would not hesitate to reach out again should the need arise.

Suzie Q Grumko, Interim General Manager, Fredericksburg Food Co-op

I contacted Sarah to conduct a harassment investigation while working at a Co-op whose HR manager was accustomed to working with an expensive attorney for these types of issues. Not only was Sarah able to get to the bottom of things pretty quickly, she was also able to support the HR manager in developing an investigation procedure for that Co-op in the process of the investigation. Her efficiency and clarity were key to a fair and impartial outcome for this Co-op’s staff. Working with Sarah for this one investigation prepared the Co-op to navigate other claims independently saving financial resources that were painfully limited.
