Friends,

Now that I’m writing these fortnightly, I’ve got to admit, I don’t really know what I should focus this section of the newsletter on. I’ve written about lots of things:

• Startup compensation (duh).

• My first year in business & how to become a HR consultant.

• The various things I get up to in and around helping companies.

• The things I get up to outside of work (travel, hobbies, life updates)

The focus of the FNDN series will always be around startup compensation, but this little preamble at the top is one where I can explore adjacencies, or of course, remove altogether.

So, what do you want to hear about?

That’s it for me this week, enjoy your weekend.

Startup People Summit

This was the event I wished I had access to when I was leading people teams.

For years I asked my network where to look for inspiration, best practices and community, when it came to building and scaling a startup people function.

Nobody had an answer — until now.

The Startup People Summit is made for People professionals scaling thriving startups. It’s a:

• 1 day, virtual event

• 35+ current and former startup Heads of People speaking

• 1,000+ participants from across the APAC startup scene

It’s all happening on the 31st of July, and designed with everything in mind for handling the challenges that startup life throws at you.

Featuring only practical, no fluff content, that you can take back and actually apply. Plus a chance to build your network and take away more than just lessons.

Early bird tickets are on sale for just one more week - $50 AUD.

If you’re a Head of People, this is the professional development event of the year.
