Mindful Staffing Solutions LLC is a staffing service that provides training and employment for individuals who are interested in careers in the medical, manufacturing, restaurant/hospitality, and construction industries. Mindful Staffing Solutions also offers transitional services to help people start their careers.
President Reginald Reed Jr. said Mindful looks beyond sales and profits to measure its growth. It also looks at the efficiency of process and systems operations, along with the number of lives impacted by the training and careers created.
Mindful is currently identifying and plans to move into a new building that will become a corporate HQ and training facility, Reed said. The new building will host training for its new offerings in the medical, manufacturing, and restaurant/hospitality fields. Mindful’s new location will also include driver’s education, which is provided at no cost for those who need a driver’s license before they start their career.
The manufacturing industry is promising for Mindful, Reed said, noting that its pairing of transportation with training has the potential to impact the workforce needed in that sector.
