Fractional HR Leadership / cmdpeople.com
Your company
outgrew itself.
Most founders
miss it.
When headcount scales faster than systems, the people who built your culture start breaking under the weight of it. Cmd+People designs the infrastructure, manager capability, and organizational clarity to fix that before the cracks become exits.
Culture by Design, not default.
80-500For founder-led companies past startup scale.
01Systems before the same people problems repeat again.

Who it is for
Founder-led companies, 80-500 people, scaling faster than their infrastructure.
You're past the startup stage. You're not enterprise yet. And the playbook for where you are does not exist until now.
01
Your managers were promoted for performance, not leadership.
Now they're accountable for people, and no one trained them for that.
02
HR is reactive. You're solving the same problem on repeat.
No systems. No consistency. A different answer depending on who you ask.
03
People decisions run on instinct.
No data, no framework, no audit trail. The risk compounds with every hire.
04
The founder is still the culture.
That worked at 20 people. At 150, it's a single point of failure.
Scale needs operating rhythm.
Founders stay focused when managers, systems, and people decisions stop depending on improvisation.
Three ways we work. One operating system for your people.
Scoped, deliverable-driven, and designed to run without us once they're done.

Research Initiative
Organizational Intelligence Research Initiative
We're studying how founder-led companies make people decisions, what they get right, where they break, and what separates the ones that scale from the ones that stall.
This is not a sales call. It is a 20-30 minute conversation. Your experience feeds research. The findings come back to you.
