Katrina Barnes

Founder & Principal Consultant

Why I Created Kultura Bridge? I created Kultura Bridge after seeing too many small and midsized businesses work hard to build successful organizations while navigating complex people, leadership, culture, compliance, and growth challenges without the strategic HR support they needed.

With 25+ years of HR and executive leadership experience, I bring C-Suite-level people strategy, culture, and business strategy together to help leaders solve real challenges and build stronger organizations. My approach is simple: listen first, understand the business, and create practical solutions that work.

Because HR should never be disconnected from the business.
