How we grow matters just as much as how fast we grow

This belief is at the heart of everything we do.

​​

​Because culture isn't fluff. And leadership isn't just a role.

Both are levers for real performance, real change, and real growth.

Who We Are

Culturability Consulting is a Fractional HR and HR Consulting practice that helps companies build clarity, connection, and capacity—so people and performance can scale together.

We partner with leaders who care deeply about their teams, but may not have the time, tools, or support to approach growth and change with the intentionality it deserves.

Maybe you're navigating big shifts—new teams, new leaders, new goals—and things feel a little... stuck.

Or maybe you're scaling fast, and want to do it right without burning people out.

Either way, you're not alone.

We're here to help you translate care into action, and turn culture into a strategy that works.

Because performance and well-being aren't opposites. And your people aren’t “resources”—they’re the reason the business works.

How We Work

We support teams across three core pathways—designed to meet you where you are, and move you where you want to go.​

 

No fluff. No judgment. Just grounded, people-centered support that moves you from stuck to steady.

Who We Work With

Startups. Founders. HR leaders. Executive teams.

Anyone trying to grow without losing their people—or themselves—in the process.

We’re a good fit when:

  • You’re scaling or shifting, and want to bring people along

  • Leadership feels unclear or unsupported

  • Culture is evolving—and you want to shape it intentionally

  • Teams need clarity, energy, or a new spark

Meet Vanessa

Founder, Culture Strategist, Leadership Partner

After 15 years in corporate HR, organization development, and learning, I started Culturability to help make Human Resources easy, strategic, and impactful for small and growing businesses.

 

I've worked with startups, scale-ups, and executive teams through change, growth, and restructuring. And I've seen how even the most well-meaning leaders can get pulled into urgent demands—while people and culture quietly fall behind.

 

Strategic, effective HR is critically important for business performance. Today, I help leaders fix what’s not working and build what’s next—by leading with clarity, care, and purpose. I’m not here to throw frameworks at your team. I’m here to make sure your strategy actually works for your people.

 

I returned to my hometown of Minneapolis in 2020 after nearly a decade in NYC. My husband and I live with our two children and our dog, Willow. As an animal rescue volunteer and dog foster, I honor the memory of my beloved dogs, Nico & Josie. In my free time, you can find me gardening, studying languages, or painting—all pursuits that reflect my love of learning and growth.

Let's build what's next—for your people, your culture, and your business.

Minneapolis, Minnesota and anywhere online
