About the Principal
I launched BettHer HR Consulting LLC because I firmly believe there are better ways to enhance workforce capabilities than sticking to outdated methods. Sure, there are tried-and-true practices backed by research, but let's face it: one size does not fit all, and what worked before might not work now. Every business deserves tailored solutions. At BettHer HR, the mission is crystal clear:
Deliver top-notch, forward-thinking solutions that actually work.
Find that sweet spot where employees and businesses can thrive together.
The world of work is evolving at lightning speed, and successful businesses are staying nimble by tapping into specialized expertise exactly when they need it. With over 20 years of leadership experience in People and Culture/Human Resources across a wide range of industries and company sizes, from startups to large corporations, non-profits to for-profits, and local to global teams, I've seen it all. I've helped companies achieve great outcomes by artfully blending assessment, analysis, strategy crafting, and program design.
I absolutely love lending a hand to individuals and businesses alike, helping them tackle challenges, expand, and achieve success. That's why I've crafted BettHer HR services to offer freshly relevant, impactful, and flexible solutions. But hey, life's not all about work, right? I'm a firm believer in nurturing work-life balance, prioritizing physical and mental well-being, and continually striving for personal and professional growth. When I'm not in the trenches, you can catch me hiking the trails, soaking up some sun on the water, hunting down live music, or tuning in to one of my favorite podcasts. Let's make work—and life—awesome together!

Case Example: Healthcare company’s employee retention substantially improved
A healthcare organization was facing challenges in recruitment and retention during a period of rapid regional growth due to acquisition. By implementing targeted strategies, we successfully reduced employee turnover by 7% and boosted first-year retention rates by 35%. Beginning with a comprehensive assessment of underlying factors and aligning with business priorities, we established standardized metrics and baseline data to monitor progress. Subsequently, a multidimensional improvement plan was crafted and executed, encompassing innovative recruitment approaches, forging community partnerships, providing selection training for hiring managers, refining compensation strategies, and designing engaging onboarding processes.
Case Example: Technology company’s merger steered to successful integration
A software company backed by private equity lacked internal resources to navigate acquisition and reorganization efforts effectively. Offering fractional support, Teresa conducted HR due diligence analyses, identifying potential integration challenges beforehand. Through strategic interventions, tailored communications, and meticulous management of migration and onboarding actions, we steered clear of unforeseen obstacles, ensuring a smoother integration process than originally anticipated.
Case Example: Financial Services firm prepares leadership for the future
C-suite executives within a financial services firms recognized the imperative of cultivating future leadership capabilities but required guidance and structure to do so effectively. Guiding them through a systematic succession planning process, we identified and conducted assessments of high-potential talent, facilitated calibration sessions, initiated intentional development dialogues, and devised actionable plans to address skill gaps. The leaders successfully implemented ongoing documentation to track progress and guide future planning endeavors.
