I’ve had the great pleasure of working with Steve (“CAPTAIN HR”) and have found him to be an effective champion of HR best practices and a knowledgeable colleague. Captain HR collaborates with the leadership team to maintain a high-trust culture through rapid growth and expansion. Steve is generous with his time and brings attentiveness and good humor to every effort. He helped bring needed structure to hiring, onboarding, and retention of key personnel. He isn't just a people person for us; he is Captain HR!
Walt Carter
USAF Veteran | Author | Board Member | Keynote Speaker
Steve's a person of outstanding character and commitment. Captain HR has always made himself available and can be relied on when the pressure is on. He's an honest, candid, and trustworthy individual who you'd be fortunate to work with. I've known him for over seven years and I'm always happy to have an opportunity to see him.

My company has worked with Steve (CAPTAIN HR) multiple times over the past several years. Steve is a reliable, steady, and knowledgeable HR professional. He can handle a variety of functions and has brought professionalism and process improvement to each of his Consulting endeavors.
Richard Seldon
President and Chief Revenue Officer at Sterling Talent Solutions; current President at RSstrategy LLC
Structurally, HR is the soul of a company. So much humanity is obliterated by sterile policies and procedures. Steve (CAPTAIN HR) increased the heart rate at Surya; everyone who touched HR felt important. How valuable is this? Every organization faces a talent challenge: attracting and retaining the best. A soulless company will have higher turnover, but Captain HR helped lower this churn. He is awesome in the formal areas also, but my shout out is for the forgotten, and most important, 'skill' an HR professional can have - he is the warm face we all wish our bosses wore.
Alain Trottier
Award-Winning Innovation & Solutions Strategist | Founder @ Inventonomy
Steve (aka “CAPTAIN HR”) embodies what it means to be an HR leader. After working with him for almost five years, I can say that he is not only an expert in his field, but he is also a man of integrity and genuinely cares about the employees. Whether he’s collaborating with leadership on complex growth strategies or generously giving his time as our incredible podcast host, Captain HR always brings his best. I’m thankful for the opportunity to benefit from his leadership!
Austin Hicks
Senior UX Designer at UPS
I had the pleasure of working with Steve (CAPTAIN HR) at DEKRA. After meeting him the first day, he proved himself to be a problem solver. When he began working with us, a few things were incomplete. He embraced the challenge and got the project back on track. Steve is always willing to go above and beyond for the team. Always making one more phone call or sending just one more email to get an answer to your question. Captain HR is a valuable asset and is a great member of any team that he joins.
Theodosia J. Johnson, MBA, MPM
Senior Project/Program Manager | Strategic Leader
Steve's knowledge of HR and employee issues is extraordinary. Captain HR has an amazing ability to resolve employee differences and turn potentially difficult situations into positive outcomes for both the employee and the company. His professionalism and skill played a critical role in helping the company achieve its outstanding growth.
Jon Vasconcellos
Co-Founder and Chief Financial Officer, Shine Development Partners
Steve Lovig (aka “Captain HR”) is an HR professional who I found to be a visionary who sees what HR can be as a partner to his employers. I have found his alignment with organizational objectives to be very streamlined and well thought out. He is strategic in his thought processes and has been consistent with his execution on the projects we have worked on. I consider CAPTAIN HR to be a top-tier HR Professional.
Ken Yeoh

Pete Villari

Steve (Captain HR) brought order, organization, and consistency to HR in our company. I could always depend on Steve when I needed him. It was like having my own personal HR department. I received great service and advice. Steve helped me see all sides of situations and was able to offer alternative directions I could take to resolve problems in my department.
Frank Vanek
VP of IT at Brookline College
As an Executive Director with ATI, I can always count on Steve Lovig (Captain HR) to provide me the guidance and direction that I need to help me with any human resources issue. He has facilitated several informative training sessions on such topics as evaluative interviewing and benefits overviews. His evaluative interviewing training has helped me to improve my interviewing skills so as to better select quality employees. His cheerful, energetic demeanor makes him very approachable and he is a delight to work with!
Sandy Raska
Former Executive Director, ATI Enterprises; now Talent Acquisition Consultant at Accenture
Steve (Captain HR) is a top HR executive, period. I've worked with him for over a decade, collaborating on a countless number of HR issues. His judgment, precision, clarity, and focus are terrific. He plans ahead, makes great decisions and executes. Furthermore, he has the respect of both leadership and employees. He is fair but decisive, never arbitrary, and always principled. It's my privilege to have worked closely with Captain HR for so long and so well.
