UnmuteMe is an app that builds your people strategy from your business plan. Block by block, from hiring to offboarding, and it moves when your business does.
We started with Reward. The EU Pay Transparency Directive puts pay structure on every European company's agenda, so that block is live now as Pay, Unmuted. The others follow.
The ones you feel every week, and the ones that build up quietly until they hit the business.
Someone on your team asks why a colleague earns more. The manager says ask HR. And if you have no HR, the question lands on your desk.
A new hire spends months working out how they contribute. Nobody explained how the role connects to what the business is trying to achieve.
Ask how promotions work and the answer depends on which manager you ask. The company never wrote down one answer for everyone.
What used to be settled in the hallway now disappears into chats and calls. People at home or in another country never hear it, and new hires can't look it up.
Every manager hires for the company they imagine. A year on, the team you built no longer matches the business you set out to build.
Leadership changes direction, but roles, goals and pay still reward last year's business. People follow what gets rewarded, so the new strategy stays on slides.
Next year's growth plan needs skills and roles nobody planned for. You find out when the targets are already at risk and the hiring clock is running.
Recruitment, development and reward each run their own plan. Nobody owns the link between them, so nobody can say what comes first for the business.
Nobody planned any of this. That's a structure problem, and structure can be fixed.
The scattered version has a price.
Your people strategy is built from your business strategy and shapes everything that touches your employees: attracting, hiring, onboarding, engaging, growing, rewarding and offboarding. The app turns it into what happens at each step, and keeps it changing as your business does.
Who you are as an employer, told in a way that draws the right people.
Finding and choosing the people your business plan needs.
A path of 6 to 12 months from signing to fully at home.
Keeping people connected to the business, well and motivated, day to day.
Growth in every direction: deeper in the role, across teams, sideways into new work and in personal development.
Pay, benefits and recognition that put your principles into practice.
A good goodbye, and knowledge that stays.
People strategy keeps moving because your business does. When the business changes, your strategy changes with it, and every step follows.
Your people strategy keeps moving with your business. You shape it in the app and adjust it whenever the business changes. UnmuteMe translates it into three platforms: one for leadership, one for managers and one for employees, each showing what that person needs to act on, in plain language.
Change something in your strategy and all three platforms update with it, so leaders, managers and employees always work from the latest version.
Structure pays for itself.
I have spent 12+ years in HR. I started as the only HR person in Europe at an international company, and the work became more strategic over the years until I was leading strategic HR for mainland Europe. I lived the scattered version myself. Every department had its own plan, and I had nothing in one place to build from or to see what the business needed first.
I built my method into an app so more companies can have that structure. Along the way I received a company award for making a meaningful business impact with a people project I led.

The app carries the strategic HR knowledge, so it guides you through most of your people strategy. When your situation is more complex and you don't know how to move forward, I'm available 1:1 for founders and HR leaders.
