HR NOLA

The Face of Human Resources

HR NOLA was founded on the belief that HR is not just a compliance function but a strategic investment that drives long-term business success. With 25 years of experience in both large and small-scale companies, Founder / CEO Amy B. Bakay, SHRM-SCP has witnessed firsthand how organizations that prioritize people strategies early experience significant returns, higher retention, stronger engagement, and sustainable growth.

“We are solutions-focused and results-driven. Unlike the traditional view of HR as a cost center, our team helps businesses see the direct correlation between effective HR practices and profitability,” says Bakay. “Our goal has always been to strengthen communities by supporting organizations in recruiting, developing, and retaining top talent. By fostering workplaces where people thrive, we contribute to economic growth at a larger scale.”

This year HR NOLA is doubling down on compliance training, policy updates, and workforce planning to help businesses adapt smoothly, while expanding their advisory services to continue their mission of showing businesses that investing in their people is one of the smartest decisions they can make.
