Leah Pitzenberger is a psychologist by training, but spent almost a decade in various HR roles at Target Corporation, before focusing her career on start-ups and scale-ups in innovative, high-growth industries as their CHRO, including time as the Head of HR at the Minnesota Wild. Now, she is the founder of A People Revolution, helping organizations and leaders thrive in the future of work. She appeals to the non-believers, the nay-sayers, the skeptics. Her strategies are grounded in logic, truth and practical application. Her approach isn’t fluffy or ambiguous. It’s simple, clear, backed by science, and filled with her own experience and truths. She is changing how leaders and organizations think about delivering results … and is on a mission to create a world where Mondays don’t suck.
