I had the privilege of working alongside Julie Soltes during our time at Innisbrook, where she served as Director of HR and I managed Recruiting and Training. From day one, Julie brought an energy and presence that inspired everyone around her. She has that rare ability to blend strategic thinking with a truly human approach—guiding teams through change, developing future leaders, and making people feel seen and heard along the way. What sets Julie apart is her gift for connection. Whether she’s leading a workshop or coaching an executive, she knows how to spark insight and growth with authenticity and warmth. It’s no surprise she’s transitioned into consulting—training, leadership development, and public speaking have always been her superpowers. If you’re looking for someone who can elevate your people and your culture, Julie is the real deal.
Brian Drackett: HR Executive
Julie Soltes came to our company when we needed her the most. It was right before Covid, we were in need of a culture shift, and Covid gave us an opportunity to reset and restart. Julie led the furloughing and rehiring of hundreds of employees with a kind, fair and steady hand. Her expertise in Human Resources was truly invaluable during that time. After that, she was instrumental in setting the new tone, creating new policies, focusing on training and development, and doing all of it while striking the ultimate balance between keeping the interests of the owners in mind, whilst also advocating for the employee. She is the consummate professional , yet still brings a laugh and personality to everything she does. I truly enjoyed working with Julie and I would highly recommend her to any organization.
