Altitude’s Incubator 18 cohort had an eye-opening foundation session with HR and Operations industry leader Carolyn Aubry.

Some of the topics discussed included:

Why a great onboarding is critically important for all employees (and what “great” looks like!)
What qualities to look for in new hires -- and the one “common denominator” trait everyone in a startup must possess.
How to set up your HR for success – and avoid costly mistakes and potential legal trouble down the road – that you do NOT have time or money for as you are starting and scaling your business.
