Fractional CHRO · Strategic People Advisory

Before you make the big call on your people, work with someone who's made those calls before.

I'm Taneesha Peoples. Thirteen years in HR, from operations to the Chief People Officer seat, inside large, complex, regulated organizations. Those calls were my job. Now I make them alongside you.

Where I'm brought in

You grew fast and the team that got you here is stretched too thin. Or your best people are starting to leave and you're not sure why. Or someone critical is retiring and it's about to hurt. That's when I get the call.

The work

Three problems I get called for most. All of them costing you more the longer they wait.

01

Your best people are leaving.

Your best people are leaving and the exit interviews aren't telling you the truth. I find out what's really driving them out, and I fix it before the next one goes.

02

Knowledge that doesn't leave with the person.

Someone important is retiring, and decades of knowledge and relationships are about to walk out with them. I get what's in their head onto paper and into your team, while there's still time to do it right.

03

Structure for a business that outgrew its setup.

You grew fast and now nobody's sure who owns what, and every decision funnels back to you. I put the structure in place so your people can run their part without waiting on you.

Background

Thirteen years inside the rooms where these calls get made.

I spent thirteen years in HR, working my way from the operations side up to the Chief People Officer seat, across five industries. My most senior role ran people strategy for a 1,400-person organization. Earlier on, I supported two thousand employees on my own, which tells you how I work: close to the problem, and on the hook for the outcome.

It always comes back to the same thing. Get the people side right and the business continues to perform through growth, change, and pressure. Get it wrong and you feel it everywhere, usually after it's too late to be cheap about it.

Senior roles across healthcare, banking, public media, retail, and public institutions.

How I work

Senior counsel, sized to what the moment requires.

You work with me directly. The expertise you are hiring is the expertise you get, from the first conversation to the last.

Engagements are sized to the need, month to month, and scaled up or down as the work demands.

I hold a small number of engagements at once, so each has my full attention.

Before you go

Your best people are leaving. Here's the bill.

A resignation costs you far more than a salary. The free guide breaks down the six real costs and gives you a worksheet to run the number for someone you'd hate to lose.

Inquire
