HR and AI Resource Library
Tools your team can use on Monday
Practical HR and AI resources built from fifteen years of running the function, not from theory. Some of it is free to read. The rest is included with every retainer, or available to purchase outright.
Selected articles are free to read with no account and no email required. Browse titles, descriptions, and pricing for everything else without signing in.
Full articles and every digital product are included at no additional cost for retainer clients. Purchase individually if you are not on a retainer.
Insights
Articles from inside the function
Written for owners, executives, and the managers who have to apply the policy on a Tuesday afternoon. No filler, no listicles.
The HR Files That Decide Your Unemployment Appeal
Most appeals are lost before the hearing, in the file. What a state examiner actually looks for, and the four documents that decide the outcome.
What a Defensible Investigation Report Actually Contains
The structure that holds up when a report is read by counsel, an agency, or an arbitrator, including how to handle the gaps you cannot close.
Before You Let AI Screen a Single Resume
The governance questions to answer first, the disclosures you owe candidates, and where automated screening creates exposure rather than efficiency.
Choosing an HRIS Without Getting Sold One
How to run a selection process that starts from your requirements instead of a vendor demo, with the questions that separate platforms that fit from platforms that sell well.
Pay Equity Is a Documentation Problem First
Before the analysis comes the record. Why most pay equity exposure traces back to undocumented decisions rather than to intent.
The First Week Decides the First Year
What separates onboarding that reduces turnover from onboarding that just processes paperwork, with the checkpoints that matter at 30, 60, and 90 days.
Digital Products
Templates and toolkits, ready to use
Every file is a working document, not a sample. Fillable, editable, and built to the same documentation standard used in live engagements. Purchase once and receive every future update to that product at no charge.

All six products, 42 files covering compliance, investigations, onboarding, AI governance, HR technology selection, and pay equity. The full documentation infrastructure of an HR function in one purchase.

Client Access
Included with every retainer
Retainer clients do not buy these separately. The full library comes with the engagement, along with the person who wrote it.
A template is only worth what the judgment behind it is worth. Clients get both: the documents, and someone to call when the situation in front of them does not match the template.
