ABOUT JESSICA DELORENZO
I’m a human-centered, purpose-driven HR executive who helps organizations grow by unlocking the full value of their people. As CHRO of Kimball Electronics (NASDAQ: KE), I lead global HR strategy for a multinational manufacturer, aligning leadership, culture, and capability to enable business growth and operational excellence.I’ve guided our people strategy through a decade of transformation from a young public-company spin-off to a globally recognized employer. In that time, I\'ve lead teams to achieve record-high engagement, built a diverse executive team, and embedded evidence-based talent systems that make leadership potential visible five layers below the CEO. My work with the Board of Directors and Talent, Culture & Compensation Committee has shaped CEO and C-Suite succession, redesigned executive compensation programs, and strengthened governance around human capital disclosure.Known as a connector and counselor in the C-Suite, I bring a balance of strategic foresight and empathy by architecting leadership development, culture, and inclusion programs that make business performance and belonging inseparable.My leadership philosophy is simple: connection creates influence, and empowerment transforms performance.
