Hey Pavani, Thank you for doing this 🙂 Here's my question,

What are some of the biggest challenges People Ops leaders face while setting up processes from scratch?

Hi @Melvin, Thanks for your question. From my experience, following are the challenges: Thanks for your question: • The founding team of any company forms the initial DNA. Most People Ops leaders/HR managers base their research on these initial set of people, eventually affecting scalability. • Hiring - as a early start up, recruitment can get very tricky. There are no definite answers at this stage and everything is an assumption. Hence, setting up hiring processes is harder. • Systems - Implementing and getting people to follow systems is a difficult task. Most tools do not serve a early start-up. • Team members with little to no experience chime in and give suggestions. They get upset if its not taken up. • Most companies club 2-3 roles into one. For example: HR and Admin, Operations and accounts. Leading to delay in strategy and executions. • Measuring performance of an individual. • Deprioritizing process set-up to get actual work done, reactive approach.
