People & Culture
We help you turn intention into action by engaging your nonprofit's biggest asset: your people
Step Up helps nonprofits turn values and culture goals into day-to-day practices by engaging leadership and staff and creating systems that support the organization you’re growing into.
The result is more trust, better collaboration, and a workplace where people feel supported, respected, and ready to deliver on the mission.
We help you support high-performing teams through designing, administering, and evaluating processes for recruiting & hiring, onboarding, offboarding, performance management, payroll & benefits. We also develop and revise employee handbooks and accurate job descriptions for all staff. We bring consistency and care to the processes that impact staff most. Learn more about Outsourced HR
