Episode 35

What is Human Resources (HR) Anyways?

Do you pretend to know what "HR" is when you actually don't? I see this with a lot of business owners. They're wearing multiple hats for the company, excelling at them all, but when it comes to human resources, they give me that blank stare of "I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to be doing." You aren't alone! In this episode, I define HR for you (and yes, it's more than just compliance, benefits and payroll). But good news! HR can be broken down into nine checklist items that all entrepreneurs should be focusing on!

Jackie Koch

Hey, I’m Jackie Koch. I have over 15 years of experience prospecting talent and building teams for Fortune 500 companies, startups and small businesses in all types of industries.  Technically, I have an MBA from Concordia University, although I’d argue I learned more about growing and scaling a modern business over the last 5 years in the LA tech start up scene. There I built out recruiting and People Operations teams for high growth tech start ups. I love entrepreneurs and being one at heart, I started my own business during the pandemic. I’m the founder and CEO of People Principles where I help founders scale through fractional recruiting and people operations services.
