About Us

Grounded HR Consulting is a woman-owned, LGBTQ+ led HR consulting firm based in the Greater Phoenix area. Founded by two experienced HR leaders, we bring decades of expertise in HR strategy, operations, and people leadership to businesses across industries including manufacturing, retail, engineering, and professional services.

We partner with small and mid-sized businesses as a fractional HR resource — stepping in as your HR Business Partner or Fractional CHRO without the cost of a full-time hire. Whether you need help building HR infrastructure from the ground up, navigating complex employee relations, ensuring compliance, or developing a people strategy that supports growth, we deliver practical, real-world solutions that work. Our experience also spans enterprise-level organizations of 100,000+ employees, giving us a depth of knowledge we bring to every client, regardless of size.

At Grounded HR, inclusion isn't a checkbox — it's the foundation of everything we do. We are proud to serve as a trusted HR resource for LGBTQ+-owned businesses and their teams, helping organizations build workplaces where every employee feels valued, supported, and set up to succeed.

Our services include HR strategy and consulting, talent acquisition, onboarding, performance management, policy development, employee relations, compliance, and organizational development. We are your thought partners for HR excellence — grounded in experience, driven by data, and committed to people.

We are honored to be part of the Greater Phoenix Equality Chamber of Commerce community.
