This month’s employee spotlight shines on one of our leaders, Kevin Richardson (no affiliation with the Backstreet Boys). His vast knowledge, deep expertise, and exceptional leadership skills continue to elevate M&H each and every day.
Joe Morreal, one of our treasured HCM Implementation and Support Specialists, worked with Kevin in the past, and now works for him again at M&H! Here's what he says about his experience working with Kevin:
"Kevin is the kind of Manager who empowers their employees and is genuinely interested in their professional development - that is what Kevin is all about. He guides, mentors, teaches and supports as the knowledge is being absorbed and understood. He wants the members of his Team to be self-sufficient and supports them 100%. While driven to doing a great job and meeting -- if not exceeding a customer’s expectations -- he isn’t a stranger to having fun with Team Building Exercises and work appropriate riddles or jokes."
A Career Rooted in Payroll and HCM Excellence
With over 30 years in the Payroll, HR, and Workforce Management (HCM) industry, Kevin brings an incredible depth of experience and leadership to the M&H team.
He began his career as a Payroll Specialist, manually keying phone and fax payrolls, before moving into Implementation and Acquisition Onboarding—helping newly purchased service bureaus integrate seamlessly.
Kevin later joined a large national HCM provider, where he spent eight years advancing through roles in Time & Attendance Support, Support Team Lead, and Support Supervisor at the St. Louis Center of Excellence. He eventually became a Time Implementation Consultant, leading numerous Fortune 500 Time Implementations and building a reputation for excellence in complex workforce solutions.
Becoming a Leader in UKG Ready Solutions
Fifteen years ago, Kevin joined an Atlanta-based firm that had just become one of the first licensed partners for what is now UKG Ready (Moulton & Hardin OneSource).
He quickly became known across the Partner Community and among UKG staff for his expertise in complex implementations and ability to deliver solutions even beyond the product’s original scope.
Kevin also led Roundtables and Seminar Events at the annual Partner Community Workshops, helping shape best practices for partners nationwide.
His career continued with two other UKG partners, where he:
-
Lead major Time & Labor projects across municipal, healthcare, and manufacturing sectors
-
Managed clients averaging over 1,000 employees
-
Built a UKG Ready business from the ground up, reaching $1.5 million in revenue in under two years
Driving Growth and Excellence at M&H

Since joining, his impact has been remarkable:
-
Expanded the M&H team with seasoned UKG veterans
-
Launched the Webinar Series, Company Newsletter, and Client Surveys
-
Enhanced Support Tracking Tools and company metrics
-
Created new growth opportunities for internal staff
-
Achieved zero turnover during his tenure
Outside the Office
Kevin is a proud dad of three: a UGA Honors College sophomore, a freshman at Georgia Southern, and a high school sophomore. He shares his home with Wilson, his fluffy Aussiedoodle, and enjoys reading, playing and watching soccer, and catching as many live concerts as possible. A self-described music fan, Kevin’s passion for rhythm and connection carries through everything he does.
Looking Ahead
Kevin sees “a very bright future for everyone associated with the OneSource platform” — with ongoing growth in team development, client education, process improvement, and partnership with UKG. With Kevin’s energy and experience leading the way, the future looks bright for M&H and our OneSource team!
