Why employees say HR is invisible

People meet HR when they are hired and when they leave. In between there is nobody to talk to about workload, growth, a conflict with a manager or a plan to quit. Managers are busy with tasks, HR is busy with processes, and the first sign of a problem is a resignation letter.

What changes after this course

You become the person employees and managers come to. You have questions for a one-on-one that open a real conversation. You know the signs of burnout and what to do next. You run a career talk, an exit interview and a conflict meeting with a script. And you help managers with the tools they lack: feedback, goals, pay conversations and team development.

What is inside: 392 tools, counted file by file

You do not have to take this number on trust. Open any lecture and read its description: every tool inside is listed there by name.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.

I have seen this role grow up. At the STB television channel it was an extra duty for recruiters, who helped people with adaptation, career support and retention. At Wargaming I was an HR partner with several people doing this work under the title of HR manager. At Preply our people partner was called a Happiness Manager, and at iDeals we had a full people partner. I once heard that in a company HR was not seen and not felt, and it hurt me as a professional. The tools in this course are for the opposite result.
