Is AI replacing your plumber?

What about live music?

Can it represent you at the Fair Work Commission when you need to defend a decision you made about one of your employees?

No to all of it.

AI is a support tool. A good one. But not a replacement for real expertise. Use it to support the experts in your corner. Not to replace them.

If you've been leaning on AI for HR advice (and you’re worried about the risk) I'd love to chat. DM me.

Just because you called them a contractor doesn't make them one.

Fair Work is looking past the paperwork now. If the working relationship looks like employment, it IS employment, regardless of what the contract says, what type of ABN they have or how they're paid.

I've broken down the 5 questions every business owner should ask before engaging anyone as a contractor in the blog. If you've got contractors on the books right now, this one is worth a read.

I'm not your typical HR person.

(The serial killer profiling probably gave that away.)

But after 20 years helping Australian small business owners get their teams sorted, I've learned that the best tool in HR isn't a policy or a process. It's understanding people.

Swipe through to meet the real me, then if you've got a team drama you want help with, or just want to get better at being the boss, let's chat.

Most small business owners have the HR documents. Contracts, policies, position descriptions. The paperwork exists.

But having the documents and being protected by them are two different things.

In the last week alone, six business owners reached out after realising their paperwork wasn't doing the job they thought it was. That's not unusual. It happens more than it should.

This week on the People Powered Business Podcast I'm walking through the four HR documents small businesses most often get wrong, and the questions worth asking before something goes wrong.
