Talent & Culture
Design a Magnet for Extraordinary People
Hypergrowth lives or dies by who you attract. We partner with founders to choreograph executive hires, distributed teams, and the cultural guardrails that investors expect—aligning every employment decision with your strategic narrative and regulatory obligations.
The Talent & Culture Playbook
Orchestrating People Strategy with Legal Precision
Our four-move playbook fuses talent strategy with enforceable documentation. We engineer the optimal workforce structure, calibrate compensation and equity, codify culture into compliant policies, and stand guard when sensitive disputes surface—so your team scales with confidence.
Leadership Architecture
Engineer the Team You Need Tomorrow
We map your leadership bench, workforce mix, and geographic footprint, then engineer employment structures that unlock speed without sacrificing compliance. From C-suite negotiations to cross-border hiring, every agreement reflects your cap table, incentive plan, and future diligence narrative.
- Executive employment & offer frameworks
- Founder, advisor & contractor agreements
- Global hiring, PEO & employer-of-record strategy
- Worker classification & wage/hour compliance
Equity Intelligence
Scale Incentives with Mathematical Clarity
Capital-efficient teams require compensation mechanics that are fair, defensible, and motivating. We craft equity incentive plans, bonus programs, and change-in-control protections that withstand board scrutiny, support recruiting narratives, and remain audit-ready at every financing.
- Equity incentive plan drafting (ISO/NSO/RSU)
- Bonus, commission & sales compensation plans
- 409A valuation oversight & compliance calendar
- Retention, severance & change-in-control packages
People Governance
Codify Culture with Confidence
We translate your values into global policy suites that protect employees and the enterprise. Handbooks, codes of conduct, DEI commitments, and reporting protocols are localized and version-controlled, ensuring every team member experiences the same premium standard wherever they work.
- Global employee handbooks & localized policy suites
- Code of conduct, ethics & whistleblower programs
- DEI, anti-harassment & pay equity frameworks
- Training rollout, attestations & documentation
Protective Response
Resolve Issues Before They Ignite
When sensitive allegations, performance resets, or reorganizations arise, we respond swiftly with discretion and rigor. Investigations are board-ready, separation paths are humane yet defensible, and dispute strategies align with investor optics while protecting your reputation.
- Sensitive investigations & board reporting
- Performance management & termination playbooks
- Employment litigation & agency response kits
- Immigration, mobility & post-employment covenants
