Great HR is Invisible.
When done right, it’s not a distraction - it quietly enables success. And my job is to make sure founders and leaders never have to think about it, because they’ve got bigger problems to solve.
90% of startups fail within the first five years - don’t make it harder by stumbling through HR.
