A practical way to check whether your current HR support is helping your business move forward.
If your business is growing, it can be difficult to know whether your current HR support is giving you what you really need. You may have outsourced support in place, be handling bits internally, or be relying on a mix of advice, templates and reactive help as issues arise.
The Worth It Scorecard is designed to help you sense-check where things stand. In just a few minutes, it will help you look at whether your current approach is giving you the clarity, confidence and practical support your business needs right now.
This scorecard is for growing businesses that want a clearer view of whether their HR support is right for their current stage.
It's particularly useful if:
you already have some HR support in place, but are not sure how well it's really serving the business
you're still spending too much time sorting out people issues yourself
you want more confidence that your HR approach is proactive, practical and fit for purpose
you're growing and want to know whether your current setup will keep up
This is not about catching you out or telling you everything is wrong.
It's a practical sense-check designed to help you:
see what is already working well
spot gaps that may be slowing the business down
identify whether your current support feels reactive or genuinely useful
get a clearer idea of what to look at next
The scorecard is designed to be quick and straightforward.
It should take around five minutes to complete and by the end, you'll have a clearer picture of whether your current HR support is helping you create confidence, reduce friction and support growth in the way it should.
When a business is small, it's often possible to manage HR in a fairly informal way. As the business grows, that tends to get harder.
What worked when you had a smaller team can start to create problems later - unclear processes, stretched managers, reactive decisions and too much time spent sorting things out after the event.
Good HR support should do more than help when something goes wrong. It should give you clarity, encourage better decisions and make it easier to move the business forward.
Once you've completed the scorecard, you should have a better sense of whether your current HR support is:
giving you the right level of practical input
helping managers and leaders feel more confident
reducing pressure on you as the business owner
aligned with where your business is now heading
If your result highlights gaps, that doesn't mean you need to throw everything out and start again. It simply gives you a clearer starting point.
