Built for People - People Ops as a Product

The old way of doing People Ops is slowing you down and leading to poor outcomes. You're relying on centres of excellence, or launching another engagement survey that feels, well, disengaged. Instead - you should be solving problems and having impact. Every business has three products they are building: A customer facing product, a investor facing product, and a people facing product. Approaching your people product with the rigor and practice of a product management team, and you will start to see results. Join us to learn a new approach to make this far easier, in a clear and practical way.

Companies are made of people, and getting the people work done right is HARD

Experienced People Leaders who want to transform their approach. From Head of to CPO.

People Partners or HRBPs, who want to learn more about a much more innovative approach

Founders, Execs or COOs who want to learn about how to build a modern people function
