Episode 10: Growing Your Business Using the Associate Model

Guest: Claire Watt of Ditton HR

In this episode we chat to Claire about how she has very successfully built her HR consultancy using associates. Claire took on her first associate 5 years ago and now has 18 associates supporting her.

Hear from Claire about how she protects her business with really good consultancy agreements, provides inductions to ensure associates deliver to her standards and ensures they are in control and can say no. She carefully matches associates to projects and spends time mentoring and developing them.

A great episode for anyone wishing to learn more about an associate model for HR consultants.

Thanks for listening to HR Voices!
