Daniel Space (DanFromHR) transforms HRBPs into strategic business advisors.

I've spent nearly 20 years as an HR Business Partner across organizations like American Express, WebMD, Electronic Arts, and Spotify.

Today my work centers on one idea: turning HR practitioners into genuine business leaders.

I teach HRBPs the things no one ever taught them, how businesses actually make money, product models, financial terms, how to read a marketing plan, and how to be a strategic advisor that executives want to partner with.

Most HR professionals are excellent at HR. What almost none of them were ever trained to be is business people.

That gap is what my content, cohorts, writing, and speaking are built to close, pairing advanced HR competencies with real business fluency so HRBPs can move from support function to credible strategic advisor.

Performance Management Redux

Very engaging course! Throughout the course, the instructor, Dan, made the information digestible and cleared many misconceptions on the Performance process. I really enjoyed the exercise as it was structured yet had the ability to be improvised. It simulated what the actual process would be like. I enjoyed taking this and it helped me have better knowledge on the performance and calibration processes that I didn't have with my prior background.

Performance Management Redux

This was a great session. I really enjoyed the activity and role-playing as people managers in a calibration, playing different roles of how these managers tend to show up in actual calibrations. It was great to understand the different definitions of how we think about performance management itself, but the key takeaway for me was really summarizing it in a point that Daniel mentioned: performance management comes down to, "Does somebody care enough to develop me?"

How Strategic HRBPs Optimize Recruiting Effectiveness

As an HR business partner, where we do not specifically get into a deep standalone talent acquisition role, this course provided quite a bit of depth in terms of how to strategically think about talent acquisition: both from an HR business partner standpoint, a recruiter standpoint, an interviewer standpoint, and, of course, from the perspective of the business. To have a full picture and a well-rounded understanding of talent acquisition, that was certainly accomplished in this session.
