I’ve been in HR and People Operations work for over a decade. My areas of focus are in:
Process Development: Design and implement effective people processes that align with your organization's objectives and values. Examples include goal setting frameworks, performance reviews, compensation reviews, etc.
New Manager Training: Most people managers get their role with little to no training. Equip your managers with essential skills, tools, and strategies to lead effectively from day one.
Organizational Restructuring: I guide leadership teams through RIFs/layoff planning, determining hiring needs, and working through change management for key organizational shifts.
Compliance and Policy Development: Ensure state and federal compliance and create tailored people policies that reflect your organization's unique needs and culture.

I offer group workshops in the following areas:
New Manager Training - if you’ve got new managers with little to no manager experience, this workshop will cover the basic responsibilities of a people manager and how to manage performance. Areas of focus can be tailored to your team’s specific needs (eg. Remote management, avoiding micromanagement, etc)
Effective feedback - A great workshop for either managers or non-managers, this workshop prepares people for effectively giving and receiving feedback at work.
Effective meetings - Improve your company’s meeting hygiene by training your team to utilize structure and planning for a better meeting culture. Get away from the “this could have been an email” meeting culture with a comprehensive training on how to run effective meetings.

NEW: I've seen and read about so many poorly conducted layoffs and the truth is - even if you're going to do a shitty terrible thing, there's a way to do it thoughtfully and equitably. I think so many HR professionals and company leaders know they need to do layoffs and have no idea how to do them well.
That's where my guide comes in.
"The Layoff Guide: A guide for HR professionals to do a shitty thing in a less shitty way" is a 28-page document that provides detailed instructions, scripts, and templates to help you plan, execute and deal with the aftermath of a company layoff. It's a guide to help your company mitigate risk but it's also a guide to supporting the people impacted by your company's decisions.
