Because workplace problems are messy.

Experience built on the shop floor.

David L. Schultz, founder and Principal Human Resources Consultant, has worked in HR since 2006. He began his career in production, quality assurance, and supervision, giving him firsthand knowledge of the people and pressures behind operational decisions.

His experience spans food processing, produce operations, controlled-environment agriculture, distribution, and gray and ductile iron foundries. He has built HR functions, supported rapid growth, and partnered with leaders to stabilize staffing and strengthen accountability.

David's work includes a turnaround assignment in an operation with more than 700 employees and enterprise workforce-development initiatives affecting 4,000+ employees. He connects structured training, skills-based pay, leadership coaching, employee relations, and workforce data to daily operations.

Through Grawlix Consulting Solutions, David brings that experience to small and mid-sized businesses. An engagement can focus on one role, one workforce issue, or a broader HR need. Scope and implementation support are matched to the organization, with systems leaders can explain and teams can sustain.
