How I can help
About Bill Gottlin
Hi, I'm Bill Gottlin. I founded Aspire HR Consulting LLC in 2004 after a successful corporate HR career, with the goal of bringing practical, thoughtful HR support to growing businesses.
For more than 20 years, I’ve worked with small and mid-sized organizations—most commonly companies with 5–30 employees—that have outgrown informal ways of managing people. I help owners and leaders bring order, clarity, and fairness to their people decisions so they can focus on growing their business.
I live in Stamford, Connecticut with my wife and daughter. Outside of work, I enjoy outdoor activities and reading history, both of which reinforce my belief that perspective, patience, and learning from experience matter—especially when working with people.
At the core of my work is a simple belief: leaders shouldn’t have to make every decision from scratch. Clear systems, applied with integrity and common sense, make better outcomes far more likely.
