Area of support — Human Resources

Strengthen your culture

Meet with human resource experts

Part of being a good business owner is being a good leader: a person whose team can trust them to lead and care about their best interest. Meet with our trusted human resources experts to learn about:  

  • Drafting job descriptions
  • Establishing best practices for team management 
  • Developing a hiring and onboarding process
  • Creating employee policies, handbooks, and more

Elevate Hennepin advisors offer strategic guidance for your business to get to the next step. While they may support some implementation activities, business owners are responsible for ongoing maintenance and day-to-day operations. Businesses should be prepared to engage their own resources for complex projects that are anticipated to take more than 25 hours. 

Contact an advisor below to help you identify and plan for your critical next step with human resources work or visit our Resource Directory to find more human resource support options or resources across all our support categories.
