MEETĀ KRISTIE DIERIG
Collaborative HR Partner ⢠Operations, Technology & HR Integration Specialist
Unlocking sustainable growth by bridging the gap between business strategy, technology, and human capital.
The Challenge You're Facing
Your business is ready to scale, but you're losing valuable momentum at the intersection of Operations, Technology, and HR. Internal processes are holding you back, technology implementations aren't delivering expected value, and your people practices haven't evolved to support your growth ambitions. You need expert guidance to activate your business strategy and create agility in the face of constant change.
Why Kristie Gets It
Kristie brings a rare combination of lived experience across IT, operations, and HR within both global enterprises and small to midsize companies. She spent 21 years at P&G, moving from Database Administrator and IT Leader to Commercial Analyst before leading global learning and development, talent programs, and HR Business Partner work. She led the Workday implementation for 100,000 employees across all countries in just 20 months, serving as HCM lead and Reporting strategist. With an Industrial Engineering degree and 15+ years as a certified Design Thinking facilitator, she balances science and art, humans and technology, process and agility. She believes business challenges can always be answered within the four walls of the business through human-centered insights.
How She Guides You to Success
Strategic Activation: Provides expert, data-backed guidance to accelerate value often lost at the Operations-Technology-HR intersection, helping you activate your business strategy rather than just plan it.
Process Optimization: Streamlines internal processes and implements AI solutions that actually work for your organization's unique needs and culture.
Discovery-Driven Solutions: Leads strategic planning and discovery workshops using Design Thinking principles to uncover answers through human-centered insights, not imposed external frameworks.
Sustainable Evolution: Helps you evolve practices to embrace agility and build resilience, creating a sustainable business model ready for the future of work.
Real Impact
Kristie helped a client break free from a $160,000 annual PEO model that was delivering subpar support and creating manager and employee challenges. Through critical evaluation of their HR service needs and market assessment, she designed their internal HR team model, wrote the job description for their first in-house HR Director, and created the full implementation plan for a new HRIS system. The result: they selected and launched their new HRIS in just 12 weeks, reduced annual costs by 40% (funding in-house HR salaries), and grew their HR team to four people. The company now experiences tremendous productivity and employee engagement improvements because of this strategic shift and clarity of work.

Her favorite getaways are health-conscious yoga retreats or mission trips.
