Get the Exact System I’ve Used to Scale 7-Figure Companies to 9-Figure Exits With HR

Does the World Really Need Another HR Course?

I get it: The last thing you need in the trenches of startup chaos is another course that sits in inbox purgatory.

But this isn’t “just another HR course.”

This course is specifically designed for startups. There are no theoretical case studies or assumptions that you have everything ironed out. Instead, this course is based on real frameworks I’ve successfully used as an HR advisor for 150+ startups.

I’ve seen scrappy companies with industry-leading technology take on giants and win. But I’ve also seen many companies with great products, distribution, and marketing fail. Almost every time, you can trace it back to poor people practices that were not aligned with the business.

The single biggest expense for your company will be people-related.

For many startups, it’s as much as 80% of your operating budget. You can’t afford to get it wrong, but on the flip side, getting it right unlocks a competitive advantage for your company.

There are hundreds of HR courses out there that will do a great job of showing you how to handle compliance, hire in different states, or hire and fire people. But there aren’t many courses that will help you turn HR into a competitive advantage for your company.

What if HR Became a Strategic Function For Your Business?

The thing that separates 9-figure exits and 7-figure plateaus isn’t the product, go-to-market, or sales strategy; it’s having the right people in place and empowered to do their best work.

Most HR certifications and courses won’t teach you how to do that, though. Not for a startup, at least.

This masterclass takes a fundamentally different approach by showing you how to align every HR decision with your company’s strategic objectives. This course will give you the same playbook I’ve used as an in-house HR leader and fractional HR consultant to scale 7 and 8-figure companies to 9-figures.

What You’ll be Able to do After This Course

Build a lean HR function from scratch

The needs of fast-growing companies will vary at different stages of growth. You’ll learn not only how to identify those needs, but also gain the tools and knowledge to build a lean HR operation that delivers impact and supports scale.

Align HR with business needs and drive impact

HR isn’t just about recruiting or handling employee complaints. HR holds the keys to every aspect of your company, from who you bring in to how to equip them to succeed. You won’t just learn how to build an HR function that serves your company; you’ll learn how to build an HR function that drives impact that is felt throughout the business.

Design a thriving employer brand and culture

Most startup cultures are developed haphazardly and differ too much between teams. You’ll develop a compelling employer brand and culture that acts as a competitive advantage for your company. You’ll be able to use this brand in your recruitment operation to identify and hire superstar talent for your teams.

Map out an organizational structure primed to scale

You’ll learn how to design the right org structure to match your growth stage, and your company structure can and will evolve as you grow. You’ll also learn how to scale your workforce as your company and needs change without burning through your runway.

Offer perks beyond ping pong tables and free pizza

Free food and candy walls are nice, but that won’t make your company “great to work for” or help you attract top talent. You will learn how to prioritize impact over nice-to-have and build a cost-effective and sustainable benefits program that fits within your budget.

Build your ideal HR tech stack

Too many HR teams choose their tech stack based on the company’s immediate needs. You’ll learn how to anticipate future needs and select the right tech that allows your company to scale. You’ll also learn how to get buy-in from and manage change so that your tech is implemented properly and adopted by your team.

Here’s Some of What You Can Expect to Learn Inside

• How to develop an HR strategy that aligns with the business, gets buy-in from your C-Suite, and sets you up for success.
• When and how to make organizational design changes to support your company’s strategic goals, at every growth stage.
• A foolproof way to decide when to hire and whether to hire a contractor or a full-time employee.
• The exact hiring process I’ve used to help you define the ideal candidate, select the right interviewers, ask the right questions, and hire the right people.

• How to build a performance management process that sets clear expectations, engages employees, and positively impacts your business.

Nahed Khairallah | CEO at Organized Chaos and Fractional HR Leader

Since 2011, I have helped over 150 companies in the US, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa grow from 7-figure to 9-figure businesses by supercharging their people practices.

I’ve worked in and around HR for over 15 years. I’ve:

• Worked in-house for pre- and post-revenue, bootstrapped, and VC-backed companies and almost everything in between.
• Worked as a fractional head of HR
• Served as an advisor to Big 4 and Tier 1 management consulting firms

And I now advise and create content for ambitious founders and HR leaders. My clients have ranged in size from 50 to 60,000 employees and revenues from a couple of million dollars to more than $20 billion. Now, my goal is to help every startup founder and leader get HR right the first time and make HR a growth accelerator for their company.

Who this course is for

There’s more to scaling successfully than investing in product-market-fit, marketing, or sales. To put your company on the hypergrowth track, you need an HR operation and people ops infrastructure that equips your company to attract and retain the right talent for every position.

This course is ideal if you are:

• A founder/acting HR or HR leader in a startup, and you genuinely care about building a best-in-class team and culture.
• You have fewer than 250 employees, and you struggle to attract, hire, and retain top talent in your company.
• You want HR to be the rocket fuel for your company’s growth and the difference maker in your long-term success.
