about bear essentials hr

After two decades building proven HR practices inside a Fortune 500 environment, I saw how often small businesses struggle with the same people challenges — but without the resources, expertise, or time to solve them.


Hiring the wrong person, losing a good employee, or mishandling performance can cost thousands. In fact, replacing a single employee often costs 3–6 months of their salary once you factor in hiring, training, and lost productivity. For many small businesses, people issues take up more than half of their time and financial stress.

We provide industry-leading templates and practical tools that help you:

  • Hire and onboard with confidence.
     
  • Manage performance fairly and consistently.
