About Laura Stepp
With ~30 years of progressive experience in human resources, organization consulting, business operations/administration and global operator roles, I have a passion for designing and developing exceptional organizations and transforming and modernizing the people and workplace functions. I have a proven track record of leading global HR teams, driving organizational change and restructuring, scaling talent acquisition and management, and fostering a high-performance culture. I also have extensive expertise in the enterprise SaaS software, technology and IT industry - working in private companies for the past 13 years, and for several exceptional Fortune 100/500 public organizations in the 16 years prior to that.My mission is to help businesses achieve ambitious goals while not losing sight of the human beings that make achieving those goals possible. I am a catalyst, a coach, a change-maker, a builder and collaborative consultant. I have a knack for developing excellent HR teams that are strategic, agile, and collaborative. I am also a lifelong learner, a certified executive coach, and a highly proficient facilitator. I enjoy working with diverse and talented people, and I value integrity, excellence, and innovation. I\'m someone that people like to work with and for, which I consider the ultimate compliment and reward.
