What happens when you mix childhood hustle, a deep commitment to faith, and two decades of leadership experience? You get Lakeisha Robichaux—CEO of Chief of Minds and a total force in the HR and business strategy space.
In this episode, Lakeisha walks us through her journey from selling candy in middle school to building a thriving HR consultancy that’s redefining how businesses grow through people. She shares what she learned from her first failed business, how she leads with intention and integrity, and why HR should never be an afterthought.
We dig into:
- The mindset shift that changed everything
- Why hiring a “mini-me” is a red flag
- How to build diverse, high-performing teams
- The difference between work-life balance and integration
- The role of faith and prayer in her leadership decisions
- What’s ahead for Chief of Minds in 2025
If you’re leading a team, growing a business, or trying to figure out how to do both without losing yourself, this episode is for you.
