Episode Description
The buzz: Startups and HR. Heads-up, startup founders! If an HR department is the last thing on your mind because you “only” need someone to manage employees’ basic benefits and paychecks, think again. Why bother with HR so early, you ask? Because a core HR function, even in a startup, can take the burden of administration and compliance off your back and place it with human capital experts who know how to handle real HR issues and will free you up to focus your energy on your organization’s innovation mission. The experts speak. Mark Stelzner, IA-HR.com: “Have no fear of perfection – you'll never reach it." (Dali). Laurie Ruettimann, The Cynical Girl: “Who is the happier man, he who has braved the storm of life and lived or he who has stayed securely on shore and merely existed?” (Hunter S. Thompson). Natasha Loeffler-Little, SuccessFactors: “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.” (Albert Einstein). Join us for HR for Startups: More Important than You Think.
