@courtneymessinger
Senior People Business Partner collaborating deeply with multiple functions, identifying people initiatives that meet or exceed business strategy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a People Business Partner with over 12 years of strategic human resources experience, thriving in environments with lofty goals and a lot of work needed to achieve them. I consistently deliver value through forward-thinking consultation and by translating company objectives into tangible people initiatives, with a strong focus on integrity, performance, and collaboration.
In my recent roles at UnitedHealth Group, I’ve provided end-to-end people partnership for large health care operations teams, leading proactive conversations with executive and senior leaders on talent strategy—executing reorganizations, lateral and promotional moves, succession planning and development, and reskilling and upskilling key functions. I’ve also built culture through complex employee relations and ongoing culture efforts, and at Playco Global I created and launched the inaugural performance feedback cycle, achieving a 92% participation rate with 500+ self and peer forms and a playbook for future cycles.
