Not Your traditional HR
With a passion for developing thriving environments while scaling businesses and leveraging 15 years of experience in high-growth startups, I specialize in scaling startup teams effectively. I empower founders to overcome the challenges that arise during rapid growth to take them from startup to scaleup painlessly
.
Throughout my journey in various startups, I observed three common pitfalls when they embark on their scaling journey:
- The core team feels left behind as the focus shifts from purpose to profit. This transition from idealism to expansion can create a sense of loss, diminishing motivation and enthusiasm among those who joined the original vision.
- Introducing a layer of senior leaders often exacerbates the detachment between the core team and decision-making processes, leading to anxiety and potential resentment.
- The growth of the team alters the dynamics among individuals, and systems that once worked effectively for a small team crumble under the pressures of expansion.
Having experienced these challenges first-hand as both a core team member and a new team member, I understand the pain experienced by founders who strive to preserve a strong culture while seizing growth opportunities.
My mission is to solve people operations for busy founders so that they can achieve their goals faster.
By alleviating the People Operations burden, I empower startup founders to concentrate on their core business while building exceptional teams that drive long-term success.
