01 / HOW I HELP

Leadership development, Taking Flight with DISC workshops, engagement, job descriptions, handbooks, training, and practical systems designed around the humans who actually have to use them.
02 / ORGANIZATIONS I KNOW
HR isn't one-size-fits-all.
Neither are the organizations I work with. More Than HR brings experience across people-centered, operational, and service-driven environments.
From organizations with just a couple of employees to teams of more than 200, the support should fit the organization — not the other way around.

04 / THE POINT
Good HR isn't about adding rules. It's about helping people and organizations work better.
Clear guidance. Thoughtful processes. Managers who feel supported. Employees who know what to expect. HR should make the work easier to navigate — not harder.
Outside of HR: Mom, corgi enthusiast, space geek, escape-room fanatic, avid traveler, relentless optimist, firm believer in the Oxford comma, and convinced that people are far more interesting than policies.
05 / MEET LAINE
Experienced enough to know the rules. Human enough to know the rules aren't the whole story.
I'm Laine, the founder of More Than HR. For more than 15 years, I've worked alongside leaders and employees through the easy stuff, the messy stuff, and the “Okay… what do we do now?” stuff.
I believe good HR should protect the organization and treat people like people. It should give managers confidence, employees clarity, and leaders someone they can call before a small problem becomes a very expensive one.
That's the kind of HR I practice.
