Smart Start-ups Scale People-first

You know your business can’t grow without a team of highly engaged people performing at their best. Yet most start-ups lack the budget for costly HR directors and people experts. We make GameChanging HR simple, accessible, and effective.

How can GameChanger ensure your success?

Do you need senior HR support but don’t have the budget for an HR director?

With decades of experience scaling multi-million-pound startups, we love nothing more than rolling our sleeves up and turning HR admin into a game-changing growth strategy.

Have you scaled your team but not your processes?

People processes are essential to a robust business growth strategy. They protect you from potential issues and ensure your team feels valued, remains committed, and works together to reach their full potential. Using the power of OKRs, we ensure every individual is working towards the same goals. Only then can your business truly thrive.

Are you struggling to get everyone aligned and moving in the same direction?

A GameChanger Workshop gets your whole team on the same page. Your ability to attract, engage, and retain the best talent is amplified when your team is aligned with your vision, values, and culture. This leads to high-performing teams and increased revenue.

Is your leadership team prepared for this next stage of growth?

It’s common for startup leaders to have no or limited training. We level up your leadership team by teaching them the skills they need to manage high-performing teams. Our customised leadership program is the most effective way to support employee growth and happiness.

From hands-on coaching for your leadership team to rolling out HR systems (and getting your people to actually engage with them) to creating an ‘I’ve got to work there’ company culture, we’ll take care of your people so you can focus on growing your business.
