Meet Kerri M. Roberts
HR Consultant. Leadership Coach. Podcast Host.
I help leaders turn the mess of growth into momentum - with systems that work and conversations that matter.
Straight Talk. Real Results.
I’m Kerri M. Roberts, founder of Salt & Light Advisors, author of The HR Easy Button, and host of Don’t Waste the Chaos.
After more than 20 years in HR and Operations, I learned this truth: most business problems aren’t really about people - they’re about clarity.
That realization shaped everything I do today.
From advising companies on structure and culture to coaching leaders through seasons of growth, my mission is simple:
Help good people build great organizations - without losing themselves in the process.
Experience That Works in the Real World
I’ve built my career around operational excellence, leadership development, and people strategy - not theory. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
Founder & CEO of Salt & Light Advisors (People Operations firm based in Missouri)
Certified Predictive Index Partner – hiring and team design by data, not guesswork
MBA, William Woods University
B.S. in Business Administration, Columbia College
Former Malcolm Baldrige Senior Examiner – trained in measurable quality systems
Licensed Insurance Producer (Missouri)
“Kerri doesn’t just make HR easier - she makes leadership effective and human.”
As Seen In:
From Corporate Chaos to Country Clarity
I live on a 140-acre farm in Northeast Missouri with my husband (a proud U.S. Marine veteran), our son, and two yellow Labradors. Out here, growth takes rhythm, grit, and deep roots - the same principles I bring to business.
My faith keeps me grounded. My family keeps me real. My work helps others lead with purpose and peace.
Let’s Build Something That Lasts
If you’re leading a team, building a business, or navigating change, I can help you find the clarity you need to move forward - and actually enjoy the process.
