Authentic people. Entrepreneurial approach. Trusted partners.
People, Culture & Operational Consultants for Startups
Our team partners with science and technology start-ups and growing organizations to provide leadership and operational expertise to strategically build and drive the desired people and culture foundation for your business.
We provide a breadth of expertise in Human Resources, combining our knowledge and experience to develop people and programs that will give your organization the cultural competitive edge to drive results.
We partner with companies of various sizes and stages - whether you are a venture capital firm in need of people and cultural due diligence, or a rapidly growing start-up in need of internal strategic and tactical leadership, we’d love to provide a partnership to support your business.
In addition to strategic functional leadership, we provide leadership development, culture coaching, organizational assessments, and project support to develop modern and effective HR programs, customized for and aligned with your organizational strategies and goals.
The science & technology industries are unique, and so are we. We’re good at people. We’re good at culture. But we’re not your typical consultants.
We don’t believe in a “one size fits all” approach for managing people and culture.
