I help CEOs solve problems standing in the way of growth.
By combining strategy, systems, and execution, I turn complexity into clarity and people strategy into business momentum.
I’m Kraig Docherty, a Contract and Fractional Chief People Officer.
For over 20 years, I’ve helped leadership teams align people strategy with business goals and build the operating systems that enable execution and accelerate outcomes.
I’m often brought in during moments of complexity, uncertainty, or growth when clear thinking, decisive action, and meaningful progress matter most.
Clients call me when they need to:
Lead HR through a merger, acquisition, or integration across people, systems, policies, and culture
Fix broken orgs, functions, or leadership teams that are stalled or misaligned
Build or rebuild People teams that can scale with the business
Navigate the cross-border integration of payroll, HCM, benefits, ATS, or other HR systems
Align total compensation and benefits programs post-acquisition or during scale-up
Put operating systems in place to reduce noise, align the team, and drive execution
Create calm, clarity, and forward momentum, especially when things feel stuck or chaotic.
