Backup for “the only HR person in the room.”
Being a solo Head of People is tough. You’re supposed to know everything…employment law, culture, engagement, DEI, payroll quirks, and half the time you’re making it up as you go.
This is your space to get mentoring, perspective, and practical backup from someone who’s been there.
What this looks like
One-to-one mentoring sessions (monthly or fortnightly)
A sounding board for tricky issues
Review of your frameworks, policies, or plans
Guidance on influencing leadership without burning out
Ongoing WhatsApp/email support for “what the hell do I do?” moments
How it works
