About Lacy Knaffla

As an HR leader with nearly 10 years of experience, I have a passion for helping startups and small teams grow and thrive by creating and implementing innovative and effective people strategies and solutions. I have a SHRM-SCP certification and a strong background in HR technology, data analysis, and compliance.Most recently, I was the Head of People & Culture at HourWork, a game-changing company that disrupts how employers recruit and retain their hourly employees. I led the HR function for a global team of 70+ across multiple locations and supported the company\'s mission to restore the ideals of the American Dream by unifying employers and hourly workers. I developed and executed programs and policies that enhanced employee engagement, performance, and retention, and leveraged cutting-edge technology platforms such as Greenhouse, Oyster, Guideline, Gusto, and more to streamline and optimize HR processes and operations. I also partnered with leadership and stakeholders to align HR objectives with business goals and foster a culture of collaboration, diversity, and inclusion.
