About Kristi Gonzalez
As an HR leader, I go into every day with the knowledge that everyone has their own personal struggles and battles outside of the workplace. This helps me remember that everyone is trying their best, including myself, so that I always can give a little compassion and grace when needed.I’ve spent my career combining strategic foresight with empathy and authenticity to help employees find purpose, guide managers to lead effectively, and enable organizations to thrive. Fueled by the desire to listen, support, and encourage employees to achieve their goals, I’ve been able to make some pretty incredible impact like serving as second to the CEO through 2 transformative acquisitions, redefining the role of administration from a gatekeeping function to a strategic business enabler, and leading international workforce mobility and crisis management efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic.As I embark in the next step of my career, I’m excited to continue to foster alignment, trust, and seamless communication within organizations to cultivate organizational resilience and cross-functional collaboration.
