The industry challenges
2 out of 5 HR professionals in early career stages feel underskilled in their role
(CIPD People Profession Review 2018)
HR people in start-ups often move from reception or recruitment roles into HR
78% of Heads of HR say they learn best from an experienced HR leader, but only 37% have a mentor

Start-ups invest in senior HR professionals in latter stages, leaving emerging talent without mentors
Attracting and retaining talent is a top ten challenge for fast growth companies
(Startups 2019)
HR people in start-ups need to shape and scale culture, but often have little or no experience of doing so
