There are common challenges that can make it hard to get deep traction as the People and Culture expert in a fast-scaling startup.
To become the business strategist and influencer you need to be at this level, you’ll need to spend at least half of your time focused on the top team, deeply partnering with the Founders and your other Exec peers, and holding your own with the Board.
Relationship dynamics and navigating the business through change will take daily effort, and knowing how to align, move and pivot an organisation at pace will be critical. You’ll need to have one eye on today but never taking the other eye off how you scale for tomorrow.
It tough. But it is the kind of work that is truly meaningful. A privilege to get out of bed in the morning knowing that what you do that day will take the business that one step closer to achieving its vision, through its people and culture.
I can support you to find your influence – your good power – so you are right there at the centre, co-pilot to the Founder CEO, helping build the plane while flying it at the same time.
With lived experience of going through this same journey, I can share not only the tools to help you get there faster, but also the high-impact relationships of the “G3” and “C2”.
As a mentor, Caroline offered wise advice I could leverage and apply to our unique scaling opportunities. The simplicity of some of her tried and tested concepts were easy to digest and apply in practice. My personal favourite is Grit and Grace, it will always stay with me.
