Peyton Brooks, VP of Workforce Development

Peyton Brooks

VP, Workforce Development

As a firm believer in continuous development and self-improvement, I attained a Bachelor of Science in Marketing from Howard University and a Juris Doctor Degree from The George Washington University Law School.

 

My passion for service to the community drove me towards the workforce development industry, where I have been in active pursuit to change the trajectory of lives and shape communities ever since. With nearly a decade of experience doing so, I have helped thousands of individuals obtain access to more short-term, affordable, and convenient upskill and reskill opportunities across the nation.

 

Given my vast industry expertise, I provide management consulting services to workforce
development organizations helping them with customized solutions, specialized curricula, strategic partnerships, and employer engagement. My consulting leverages deep technical knowledge as well as strategic and tactical approaches to provide the best solutions with data-driven outcomes. 

 

My proven experience in building workforce development systems have led me to develop and evangelize best practices for workforce development programs that include the following outcome-based attributes:

– Livable wages and sustainable careers in high-demand industry sectors
– Job placement-focused programs with strong employer partnerships
– Data-driven understanding of regional skills gaps; and
– Comprehensive skills training that includes practical application work experience with career coaching.

 

My ability to thrive in the workforce development industry is attributed to my strong interpersonal skills, which have enhanced my capabilities to understand what people truly mean to communicate when attempting to express their business challenges. This trait has set me apart from the rest, as I can identify and resolve the root cause of challenges resulting in proper alignment of investment to desired business outcomes.

 

Therefore, as a leader of cooperative outcome-focused efforts, I would like to connect with
professionals who are interested in collaborating to improve communities and change the trajectory of lives through sustainable career attainment.

Abigail Sel, Chief Marketing Officer

Abigail Sel, MBA

CMO

“Marketing maven with a knack for turning vision into outcomes.” As a Chief Marketing Officer with a passion for storytelling and launching innovative digital strategies, I’ve spent the last decade helping companies build brand love and drive business growth📈. 

 

From leading cross-functional teams to developing and executing innovative marketing campaigns, I’ve always been driven by the power of connection. I’m a strategic thinker, data-driven decision-maker, and creative problem solver. I specialize in digital marketing, brand positioning, and go-to-market planning.

 

I’m Abigail👋🏽, a marketing expert who has transitioned from luxury brand marketing to corporate and executive branding. Two years ago, I merged my boutique marketing agency with XA Talent to create a disruptive Recruitment Marketing and Branding Agency.

 

We pulled apart the pre-existing Talent Acquisition Accelerator System (TAA) and enhanced it to what we currently call the 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺. This system was created and perfected by our founder, Evan Jones, in his 22 years in business managing his own federal government consulting firm, XA Systems, consulting with market-leading companies such as Accenture, Booze Allen Hamilton, L3 Harris Corporation, and more.

 

👩🏽‍💻The Workforce Accelerator System is able to resolve workforce acquisition and retention challenges enabling SMBs, especially federal and state/local government contracting firms and workforce development companies, to hire culture-driven talent on-demand without having to pay high-cost third-party recruitment agency fees. Moreover, with compelling brand stories and data-driven strategies, you have the potential to stay ahead of your competitors to attract new talent and clients/partners.

 

What makes my expertise different in the market is that I utilize winning creative methodologies to differentiate corporate SMBs’ marketing campaigns that result in connection with their target audience. So yes, collaborating on this system has been the most rewarding experience in my fifteen-year professional career.

 

When I’m not strategizing, you can find me attending marketing events and exploring new technologies and trends to bring fresh perspectives to the table.

 

Personally, I have lived in five countries – Malaysia, Australia, Dubai, the UK, and the US.
✈️an avid traveler

Evan Jones, Founder and CEO

Evan Jones

Founder and CEO

After 20 years of delivering IT management consulting and infrastructure operations & management services to the federal government (XA Systems, LLC https://xasystems.com/) and hiring thousands of employees over the years, Evan and his team have developed a system that scales a company's personnel recruitment with culture-driven candidates who contribute to the success of the business.

 

As a technology-based business focused on continual process improvement, the methods he and his team have developed have been improved over the years and are centered on employer branding and recruitment marketing that results in a pipeline of engaged candidates ready to be hired on demand. He believes every business can succeed and create an impact if they are willing to take uncomfortable action with the right tools and knowledge. He’s determined to stand in the gap and provide the tools and knowledge businesses need.

 

To date, he has played a role in the growth and development of more than 30 companies. He has worked behind the scenes of SMBs and massive 8 to 10-figure companies helping them overhaul their processes, reinvent their recruitment marketing strategies, and drive growth, both in net profit and an overall employer reach into job seeker communities.

 

With a passion for business transformation, Evan has developed his own technology, an enterprise SaaS solution, ServeOptics, that delivers service support performance metrics to IT leaders who need actionable insights to make informed business decisions. The more visibility of operations that exists with real-time performance metrics and automated reporting, the more efficient and effective companies can be in their service support operations, which enables a business to gain a significant competitive advantage in their industry.

 

Evan is interested in connecting with forward-thinking business professionals who want to collaborate on business opportunities or discuss how his recruitment system can enable a business to attract top-tier candidates, employ on-demand, and retain its best employees.
