The difference between People Ops and HR | Startup Boston Week 2020

Wait, isn’t people operations just HR with a startup-ready label? Not quite.

People operations professionals approach their work from an employee-first perspective. It’s crucial to get a handle on the employee experience at your startup, and take real ownership in the processes and norms that make it possible for your team to be productive every day. We’ll discuss:

-The employee engagement reasoning behind the HR & People Ops title shift
-The full scope people operations professionals cover
-When to bring someone in to run People Ops
-What both the founder and new employee should know
-How to effectively run People Ops for your early-stage startup

This panel will include speakers who had to run people ops in their scrappy early days, an angel investor who has led recruiting efforts for multiple startup companies, a recruiter who identifies outstanding people operations professionals, and a diversity leader in the startup community.
