Carly Holm, CHRL
Founder & CEO
Carly founded Humani HR in 2018 after spending almost a decade in HR at Fortune 500 companies. What she loved most about supporting executives as an HR generalist was seeing first hand how prioritizing people and culture positively impacts the growth of the business. After leaving the corporate world, Carly began her consulting company with the mission to one day create the workplace she longed to work for, while supporting organizations in doing the same. Carly quickly learned that there was a gap in many small-medium sized businesses - they needed strategic HR support but most did not have the resources to bring a seasoned professional on board. By providing strategic HR services on a fractional basis, Carly was able to add value to her clients and see their businesses soar. In late 2019, the business made its first hire and since then has experienced continuous success. Outside of work Carly enjoys spending time with her husband and 3 young boys, cooking, skiing and has recently taken up golf!
