People Basics
Accelerator
Your business won't grow without your people and your people won't stay unless you support them through their journey with you!
The Challenge
You are ready to grow your business but the “people stuff” is holding you back.
Without the basics in place, you’re probably seeing some cracks starting to show and you might be feeling:
- like you need to get some HR/People practices in place but you don’t know where to start.
- overwhelmed by the growing people issues like leavers, performance concerns or things slipping through the cracks.
- frustrated because managing your team is taking up too much of your time.
- the effects of mis-hiring, because you’re trying to grow fast but don’t know how to recruit the right people.
When you lack the basic structure, it creates chaos making it harder to attract, manage and keep the right people for your business. You’ll likely run into the same problems:
- New hires leaving before they’ve added value
- Lack of confidence in managing your team
- Unable to grow your business because you’re stuck firefighting people issues
Why the Basics matter
(even for small businesses)
Your business is never too small to think about your people. Employees are one of your costliest overheads and your most underappreciated investment.
It’s easy to think that building a great People Experience (PX) is only for large companies with big budgets, but:
- Every touchpoint, from the moment someone applies to work with you to their final day, shapes how they feel about your business.
- A meaningful employee experience isn’t about size or budget, it’s about intention.
By focusing on the basics, you’ll create a team that’s aligned, engaged, and ready to grow with you.
