Branding, recruitment & people advisory for SMEs

Who this is for

Owners and leaders of small and medium businesses dealing with recruitment, people, leadership, organisational capability, role clarity, talent alignment, or how the company is seen as an employer.

What you may be experiencing

• A role you keep hiring for, and keep losing.
• Capable people who don't take initiative.
• Two people who both think a task is theirs — or neither does.
• Good candidates who decline after meeting the team.

What might be underneath it

Sometimes a company thinks it is missing an employee when what it is actually missing is a function within the organisation. Sometimes the job description describes a wish rather than a role. A vacancy is often a symptom, not the problem.

Possible areas of work

• Employer branding and how the company presents itself
• Recruitment approach and candidate assessment
• Role clarification and people structure
• Talent alignment and development
• Leadership development and organisational capability

How we would work

Understand the situation as it actually is, name what I see clearly, and agree on a small number of changes you can carry yourself. I would rather leave your team more capable than leave you dependent on me.
