PEOPLE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR PE-BACKED GROWTH
Build the people infrastructure your business needs to grow
We help CEOs and PE-backed leadership teams simplify HR, strengthen people systems, and build infrastructure needed to scale (without unnecessary complexity).
Your people infrasstructure is either an asset or a liability. We build the asset.
“Our engagement with Michaela lasted about 18 months. She set us up with a people roadmap so well that a year later, it is still running without her leading it. The nine-box, mid-year reviews, engagement survey, benefits…the structure is built, and my team runs it now without her.”
Growth exposes what your people infrastructure can’t handle.
What worked at one stage of the business starts creating friction at the next. Roles get blurry. Managers operate inconsistently. Hiring, performance, compensation, and HR systems stop keeping pace with where the business is going.
Growth shouldn’t create more people complexity.
Your leadership team shouldn’t be solving the same people problems twice.
We build practical people infrastructure around the business you’re becoming, not the business you used to be.

Why Companies Choose
Progress Amplified.
1. We understand the operator’s seat.
25+ years of building and rebuilding HR functions, including 15 years inside PE portfolio companies. We understand the pressure behind the people decisions.
2. We fix the fundamentals before adding complexity.
Roles, accountability, managers, performance, systems, compliance-the basics have to work before the next shiny HR initiative matters.
3. We build for execution, not presentation.
No binders that collect dust. We build practical systems your leaders and teams can actually run.
4. We work inside the business, not around it.
From a 100-day sprint to fractional leadership, we adapt to what the business needs and stay close enough to make the work stick.
