Fractional HR · Placeholder Region

People problems
enter cloudy.
They leave clear.

PRISM is a fractional HR practice for founders scaling past their first thirty hires and for partners running lean professional-services firms. Placeholder subheading copy that sets out the promise in one calm, unhurried sentence.

01Who we work with

Two very different rooms.
One discipline.

For founders

You hired fast.
Now it has to hold.

Placeholder paragraph describing the moment when headcount outruns structure — comp is improvised, managers are first-timers, and the founder is still the escalation path for everything.

  • Placeholder — levelling and compensation bands
  • Placeholder — first-time manager enablement
  • Placeholder — performance and review cadence
  • Placeholder — offer strategy and closing support
For law firm partners

Billable hours in.
People risk out.

Placeholder paragraph on partner-led firms carrying HR in the margins — associate progression, lateral integration, and policy exposure handled between matters instead of by design.

  • Placeholder — associate progression frameworks
  • Placeholder — lateral onboarding and integration
  • Placeholder — policy, handbook and compliance review
  • Placeholder — partner-track conversations
02The practice

Four faces of
the same prism.

Placeholder paragraph explaining that engagements start with one face and usually widen to the others.

03Method

Refraction in
three passes.

01 — Incidence

Two weeks of listening

Placeholder text about interviews, document review and sitting in the meetings where the friction actually shows up. Nothing is changed in this phase.

02 — Refraction

A written point of view

Placeholder text about the diagnostic memo: what is structural, what is personal, what is urgent, and the sequence in which to touch it.

03 — Emergence

Embedded delivery

Placeholder text about working inside the team on a fixed monthly rhythm until the systems run without us, then stepping back.

04The practitioner

Senior enough to
say the hard thing.

Placeholder biography paragraph covering years of in-house experience, the stages worked across, and the kinds of teams where this approach fits best.

Placeholder second paragraph on philosophy: HR as an operating discipline rather than a compliance function, and why fractional beats a premature full-time hire.
