Training built around your business, not a generic course

Off-the-shelf training rarely reflects how your business really works. I design and deliver short, practical online sessions for small and growing UK businesses, using your policies, your examples and your ways of working.

 

I'm Lindsay Barnett, an FCIPD Fractional HR Director with 25+ years' senior HR experience. Sessions are delivered online, so your team can join from anywhere in the UK.

 

WHO IT'S FOR

• Owners and managers of small businesses with no in-house training team

• HR teams who need an extra pair of hands

• Businesses with new starters, new managers or a policy change to roll out

 

THREE TRAINING PACKAGES (each tailored to your business before it's delivered)

1. New-starter onboarding, for new employees in their first weeks: your ways of working and values, how the business runs day to day, who to go to, how to raise a concern, and key policies in plain English (absence, conduct, dignity at work).

2. Manager essentials, for new and existing managers: probation reviews, managing absence and return to work, running 1:1s, handling difficult conversations, and knowing when to involve HR.

3. Workplace behaviour and compliance, for all staff, refreshed regularly: bullying and harassment, preventing sexual harassment, equality and respect at work, and speaking up when something is wrong.

 

I cover the people side of compliance. For health and safety, fire safety or data protection, I can point you to specialists.

 

HOW IT WORKS

1. Free 15-minute call. Tell me what your team needs and what's not working now.

2. I tailor it. I build the session around your policies, your sector and real scenarios from your business.

3. Delivered your way. Live online, as a short team briefing or a half or full day.

4. You keep the materials. You receive notes and templates to use after the session.

 

WHAT I TAILOR

• Your own policies and procedures

• Examples and scenarios from your sector

• Session length and group size

• The tone, so it sounds like your business

FAQS

Can you use our own policies? Yes. That's the point of bespoke training. Send me your handbook or policies and I'll build the session around them.

How long are the sessions? From a short team briefing to a full day. We agree the length on the call, based on what you need to cover.

Is this suitable for a very small team? Yes. I work mostly with small and growing businesses, and I can run a session for one new starter or a whole team.

Does this replace specialist health and safety training? No. I cover the HR and people side. For specialist topics I can point you in the right direction.
