  I reached out to Jo as I needed to reduce the number of working hours of an employee and didn't know where to start. I knew that my action would have emotional consequences which made the decision making process that much harder.

Jo spent time with me to understand what I needed to do, how to gently communicate with the employee whilst getting the result I needed for my business. Her guidance, knowledge and support has been invaluable to me and made a difficult situation become something manageable and able to overcome.

I would highly recommend Jo. She makes HR simple to understand which is refreshing and as a small business owner exactly what I need.

Thank you Jo for your support.
