Add some S.P.I.C.E. to your HR career

and become a strategic business leader in your organisation

You’re not new to HR and you’re definitely not inexperienced. You've done the professional qualifications and yet something still isn't quite going as planned. The same frustrations keep coming up.

* You're left out of the big conversations 

* You're told to “be more strategic” with no clear definition of what that actually means

* You're delivering great work that no one seems to notice, while others shape the business around you

* You feel like no one really understands what your role is or what you're there to do
* You're constantly firefighting with little or no time to focus on the future

If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone and you’re not doing anything wrong.

But you are being held back.

Chances are, it comes down to five critical barriers that stop even the best HR professionals from making the strategic impact they’re capable of:

A brief overview of the five S.P.I.C.E. modules

Strategy

What is strategy and what does it really mean to be strategic in an HR context?
How strategic is your organisation and how can you add more value?

Perception

Uncover the pre-existing perceptions of HR in your organisation and learn techniques to help change them, so that others understand the value of your role and the HR function

Impact

Making an impact as a business leader goes beyond HR and extends to the business as a whole. We cover the ways HR can make an impact (both good and bad) , show you how to increase your visibility as a decision maker within your organisation and learn to take a more proactive approach to where you spend your time and effort for the greatest impact.

Commerciality

You'll learn how to get under the hood of your organisation from different angles, to truly understand what it is trying to achieve and how. How do you change your conversations so that you're more focused on the business as a whole and not just HR? Uncover the gaps in your knowledge around the numbers and some finance essentials and learn to take a broader business outlook.

Empowerment

Discover the personal obstacles holding you back and develop tools and techniques to overcome them; whether it be confidence, self belief, resilience, imposter syndrome or a bit of each. You'll learn to identify the kinds of situaitons where they show up the most for you and develop techniques and approaches to say goodbye to self-doubt and reach your full potential.

Payment plans are available to those who are self-funding, on both programme options.

About Kirsty Baggs-Morgan

I created S.P.I.C.E. to address the gaps and obstacles I faced in my own HR career and that I also witnessed in other HR professionals through my coaching and other work. I'm pretty uniquely placed to deliver this programme, because I have worked extensively on both sides of the table.

After a successful 25 year career in international HR leadership roles plus a few years of HR Consultancy and Executive Coaching, I currently perform a number of roles which have added invaluable and unique knowledge and expertise to my HR background:

* I work as a Strategy Coach & Consultant to HR professionals, business leaders and business owners

* I conduct management due diligence projects on behalf of private equity firms in which I interview and analyse leadership teams and business strategies and advise on the changes required for growth and scale

* I'm a Non-Executive Director for a tech startup

In all areas of my work, I combine my extensive HR and business knowledge to advise on strategy, leadership and strategic planning across multiple industries.

Since leaving in-house HR, I have devoted myself to supporting others in the HR profession through this S.P.I.C.E. programme, through my coaching and also through Evolving HR; a thriving platform and community for HR professionals and HR related business owners.

Outside of my work, I live in Southern Spain with my husband and our adopted Texan cat, who has now lived in four countries with us.
