I have had the distinct pleasure of partnering with Kurt and the Enspira team on a pivotal talent management project for our growing organization. Throughout our collaboration, Enspira has served as a trusted consulting partner while functioning as an extension of our People and Culture team. From the very beginning, they have effectively engaged with key stakeholders across the organization to gather input and diverse perspectives while truly listening and assessing the evolving needs of our growing organization. Enspira’s demonstrated range of expert knowledge and decades of experience in this space has been invaluable. I look forward to our continued partnership and our next collaboration!

As Itamar Medical strives to lead the integration of sleep apnea diagnosis and management into the cardiac and direct-to-consumer patient care pathways, the Enspira team has helped ensure our talent practices best enable our growth goals. I’m pleased to have the opportunity to work with Vickie Maurer and Kurt Landon at Enspira, who were my former HR business partners at Johnson & Johnson. They listen, are responsive and provide practical solutions tailored to our unique needs.

At the GreenLight Fund, we are focused on delivering results for the people and cities we serve. The Enspira team has been a great partner and collaborator as we grow and evolve as an organization. They are people and relationship-centered, incredible listeners and experts at helping us develop and implement a broad HR framework tailored to our needs. Kurt and his team quickly came in and won the trust and confidence of everyone on our staff. We were very impressed with the way they listened—deeply and broadly—so our staff, at every level, felt their viewpoints were being considered. The process they used has created an environment of openness, trust and confidence, which will enable us to make the positive changes needed to support our people, mission and values for many years to come.

Over the past year, Kurt has been an insightful and thoughtful advisor on performance management design and best practices, compensation strategy, and scaling general people operations programs across the business. What is unique about Kurt and Enspira is he both advises and provides you with examples and/or templates of how to implement. As we grow to 200 people this year, I’m excited to continue working with Kurt and the Enspira team.
