🌟 It’s been a while since I last shared an update, so I wanted to break the silence with some reflections. After 5 years in the HR space, I’m excited to share my top 5 lessons over the next 5 days. Day 1: People Are the Core In any company, especially startups, it’s easy to get caught up in product development, sales, and growth metrics. But what truly sets successful companies apart is their people. 🔑 Note to Employers: Your team is your most valuable asset. Without them, no product or strategy can succeed. When I joined an early-stage startup as the first HR manager, I led talent acquisition and filled over 80% of open positions, expanding the team from 12 to 27 members. This included bringing on top talent across all levels, from interns to senior management. By focusing on hiring individuals who weren’t just skilled but also aligned with our values, we built a team that was both talented and deeply committed to our mission. This alignment became our competitive edge. Takeaway: Invest time and resources in hiring, developing, and retaining the right people. When your people thrive, so does your business. Excited to be back on LinkedIn and looking forward to sharing more insights with you all! 😊 #HR #PeopleandCulture

This morning, while I browsed through the #job openings at my current company, GoGlobal, I was humbly reminded of why I joined this stellar company in the first place. It’s ironic that we join our companies for the big vision but often get too confined to our day-to-day roles and responsibilities. Sometimes, it’s nice to step back and look at the macros. Anyways, GoGlobal’s values are true unique, and I thought I’ll share it here. Also, you can go and explore jobs in our careers section here: https://lnkd.in/g5z9djsh 😎 We’re private: We totally respect that many companies raise a lot of capital and we applaud these successes. At GoGlobal, we simply like people actually in the business to control the business. 🚀 ❌ We’re not a rocket ship: We’re pretty happy on earth. Growth isn’t everything. 💞 We’re not a tech company: We fundamentally believe that this industry cannot be replaced by tech in the foreseeable future and it’s the people that make the difference. 💰 We’re profitable: We’re pretty prudent in how we spend money because we’re managing our business without outside investors. That said, we’re profitable and continue to grow sustainably. We sleep better at night knowing that we don’t have to raise money. Maybe it’s a little old school, but we believe businesses should be profitable to survive long term. 🌍 We’re diverse. No, really, we are. Compare the “Our People” page on our website to others you know. We think you’ll agree! 💵 We’re transparent: Every month we openly share our strategy and financials, so you feel ownership of your role in the company’s success. 🤝 We’re structured as a partnership versus a corporation: We’re the only EOR in the world that’s structured this way, allowing us to attract some of the best talent since everyone has the opportunity to be a partner in the firm. 🐕 We are the scrappy underdog: We think it’s more fun to be a pirate than to be in the navy.

I've hit 120 days at Genomenon, Inc, and I'm proud of the remarkable progress our People team has made in less than 3 months. Here are some key milestones we've reached together: 1. Migrated to flexible PTO: Ensuring folks can take time away to recharge. 2. Upgraded benefits providers & finished open enrollment: Enhancing our benefits package. 3. Hired ~20 Team Members: Expanding our talented workforce. 4. Onboarded CKB's dedicated team: Strengthening collaboration and capabilities. 5. Held a US and Bosnian-based Summit: Fostering unity across our global team. 6. Wrote V1 Job Architecture for our largest teams: Establishing clear career and growth paths for people managers and makers alike. How did we achieve this so quickly? The answer lies in our incredible team and partners: 🙏 Supportive Community: I lean heavily on my network and their insightful LinkedIn content. Hebba Youssef, Elles Skony, Jim Conti, Justin Cardillo, Melanie Naranjo, and many more are pioneering the way in HR and People strategy. These folks likely don't know how much they inspire me! 💕 Excellent Partners: Thanks to our exceptional partners Fringe Benefit Analysts (Erin & Ernie), Sheridan White, and Alotten, for their unwavering support and expertise. 👯♂️ Dedicated Team: Alexis Taylor and Ajla Doljančić are world-class People partners, and Sean Kearney is a fantastic leadership partner. Their commitment and excellence drive our success every day. What have we learned? ✅ Prioritizing critical work has enabled us to achieve so much in a short time with limited resources. 🙅♀️ Deprioritization is equally important. This focus is key when leading a People function at a company of nearly 200 team members across two countries (especially compared to smaller orgs). 👩🚒 As a wise leader (Daniel Estrada) once told me: you have to let some fires burn because sometimes they extinguish themselves. If you're interested in joining us, where your work has a meaningful impact every day on patients and the future of healthcare, check out our job board soon! We’ll be hiring in the US and BiH.

Big news. I’m thrilled to share that I recently joined Outsized as the Managing Director for Australia and New Zealand (ANZ). Outsized is a global leader in on-demand talent, connecting future-focused businesses with top independent professionals. For as long as I’ve remembered, I've been driven to understand why things are the way they are and how they can be improved. This has led me to uncover a true passion for making the future of work, work – specifically bringing talent on-tap solutions to future-focused businesses for mutual value. But, doing this in a true human-first way. At Outsized, we place human relationships at the core, transforming how businesses and talent connect. Our approach differs from transactional models, emphasising an understanding and genuine care for both clients and talent. Whether it's project-based delivery, flexible capacity and capability, piloting new skills before hiring, or building a skills pool without fixed costs, we ensure the right talent at the right time. Essentially, we’re flexible so you can flex. A couple of months in and I’ve been busy gathering intel from the market. Here’s what I’ve learnt so far: ↗ ANZ business leaders want genuine, non-transactional talent partners.  ↗ There’s a demand for specialised skills that independent talent can meet.  ↗ Our virtual bench solution, offering curated talent pools, resonates strongly. Outsized’s value proposition aligns perfectly with the needs in ANZ, putting people—talent, clients, and our team—at the forefront. I'm already blown away by the passion and excellence of the Outsized team. Deep thanks to our amazing cofounders Johann van Niekerk, FASSA, Anurag Bhalla, Niclas Thelander, and Azeem Zainulbhai for trusting me with this expansion.    If we haven't reconnected yet, send me a message. I’d love to catch up and explore how we can collaborate to create better solutions for the future of work. #futureofwork #talentondemand #innovation #strategy #consulting #growth #outsized
