A look behind the curtain . . .


Hi there! I'm Candice Elliott, a community-drive HR Strategist. I've been fascinated with the magic of business almost my whole adult life. I started my first successful business at 23. My degrees are in Anthropology & Philosophy (BA) and Human Resources and Labor Relations (MBA). And now, 15+ years of working with businesses later, I'm honored to help entrepreneurs like you create sustainable management systems based on your unique worldview.

So. . . Why HR Building Blocks you may be asking? Well, I got to a point in my business's growth where I couldn't take on any more one-on-one clients but still had lots of interest from folx who wanted a way to learn and grow their HR chops. These were mainly small business owners or new managers with limited resources and time. So I built this course for you! It's self paced, so you can go at your own speed when you have time. You can choose to do all the Building Blocks, or you can pick and choose which ones you want to learn most. There are lots of templates available that you can customize to your own needs, and I provide resources to build your own policies and procedures based on best practices.

I have dreams of doing a more in-depth course with a group of you in the future. I would love to be able to dive deep with you all into HR super nerd-dom and work together to solve the issues you are facing.


What's included in When Things Go Wrong?


In When Things Go Wrong we do a deep dive into discipline and terminations. You will learn about identifying employees who aren't the right fit early, and best practices for next steps with those employees. You'll also learn how to conduct a termination, and the appropriate steps to take when preparing for and conducting a termination.

This building block includes some of the foundational elements you need when you discipline an employee, or when you need to terminate someone's employment. This includes a sample Corrective Action Policy, an outline for all the best steps to take at the end of someone's employment and a sample final paycheck receipt.

Once you have finished this course you will be prepared to engage in a corrective action plan with an employee, and to let an employee go should you need to do this.
