Okay, let’s calculate this. Greg Wolf has a broad range of HR skills, including human resources, employee relations, and organizational development. He also has experience in strategy, leadership, and talent management. Considering his skills and experience, I'd place him in the upper-middle-management category. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual salary for human resources managers in the Kansas City area is around $93,000. However, Greg's expertise in areas like deferred compensation and hr consulting may command a higher rate. Let’s look at industry benchmarks. According to Glassdoor, the average salary for an HR manager in the Kansas City area is around $85,000. However, with his additional skills and experience, I'd estimate Greg could charge around $125 per hour, slightly above the industry average.
