Meet the Founder
Hi, I'm Ricklyn Woods.
An experienced HR leader, educator, and exam prep coach.
​
Over the last 20 years, I’ve worked across nearly every area of Human Resources—from talent acquisition and people operations to talent development and executive coaching.
I hold SHRM-SCP, SPHR, and PHRca certifications, and I’ve helped numerous HR professionals not only pass their exams—but elevate their careers.
​
I created HR Talent Strategies to be the resource I wish I had when I started: a place where HR professionals feel seen, supported, and prepared to step into the next level of their careers.
And for organizations, a trusted partner in building HR teams that actually move the business forward.
​
Whether you're here to get certified, get hired, or hire your next great HR pro—I'm glad you're here.
