WHAT IS HR AND HOW CAN IT HELP YOUR BUSINESS?
HR can be categorised into 'Operational' and 'Strategic'.
​
Strategic HR is about gaining a deep understanding of the business goals and then creating a flexible people plan to ensure those goals are possible.
Operational HR is the nuts and bolts of the organisation.
​When both are in-sync and led by someone with their finger on the pulse of your business and on the market, the added value can be astronomical.
STRATEGIC HR
When it comes to designing a People Strategy, it's crucial to understand the culture of the business, or in other words, how it feels to work there to understand whether the workforce is able to meet business goals. The following people metrics may be taken into account
recruitment funnel
employee turnover
absence levels
employee engagement survey results
exit interview data
employee relations case data
Once there's a good understanding of the current climate, it's important to work collaboratively to define the culture needed to meet the business goals. A strategy can then be drafted that bridges the gap.
I am highly skilled at identifying what is needed to enhance company culture, whether it's through a 'nudge' approach or a complete overhaul.
My personable style means I am able to effectively coach leaders to make headway in cultivating fair, inclusive and communicative environments, which in turn means more people will feel secure, motivated, and able to flourish.

OPERATIONAL HR
From when the candidate applies to when the employee leaves, this is called the 'employee life cycle' and HR is involved at every touch point along that journey. I've listed some standard touch points below, but this list is not exhaustive:
Recruitment
Onboarding
Learning and development
Managing expectations
Reward and motivating
Talent Management
Welfare
Exit
When it comes to operational HR, I'm passionate about cutting the admin to enable managers and employees to focus on the stuff that adds value. I have a wealth of experience selecting, crafting and implementing the most effective policies, processes and systems to ensure smooth, future-proof and stress-free employee lifecycle management.
I can also work on polishing your employer voice so that each engagement the employee has with the business is a cohesive and professional experience. This gives the employee a wonderful sense that they're in safe hands.
