Letitia Brown
@letitiabrown
I build strategic HR programs that improve engagement, workforce stability, and operational performance.
What I'm looking for
I've led HR strategy and operations for Graphic Packaging International, DSM Nutritional Products, and Mann-Hummel Purolator Filters in high-volume manufacturing, warehouse, and corporate environments. I partner with plant and business leaders to connect people programs, policies, and workforce plans to operational goals.
At Mann-Hummel, I helped reduce the target temp ratio to 2% through a direct-hiring initiative, built a leadership development program for front-line leaders, and supported salary, market adjustment, bonus, and global change-management improvements. My employee-engagement work has contributed to a 35% decrease in turnover for direct employees and a 10% decrease for indirect employees.
I'm SHRM-SCP certified, Hogan certified in advanced interpretation, and a certified LEGO Serious Play facilitator. I bring hands-on experience with ADP Workforce Now, SuccessFactors, SAP, Kronos, UKG, Kaizen, and A3 methodologies to strengthen the full employee lifecycle.
