Episode 295: How Clearwater HR Consulting Helps Small Business Owners - with Sarah Chang
Description
A strong HR foundation in small business isn’t just about compliance - it’s about retention. When employees feel valued throughout their journey, your business and culture grow.
Too often, small businesses hand HR to office managers, leaving critical practices to chance.
Real expertise ensures a positive, compliant, and trust-filled workplace.
Handled well, tricky situations are de-escalated, protecting both team culture and your reputation.
I recently spoke with Sarah Chang, CEO of Clearwater HR Consulting, a firm helping small businesses across the US navigate the complexities of HR.
Here are some of the topics from our conversation:
✅ Clearwater HR’s services, team, and focus on small businesses.
✅ Common HR challenges, from infrastructure to employee relations.
✅ Mistakes owners make handling HR in-house and value of guidance.
✅ The evolving HR landscape: social media, awareness, and legal issues.
✅ Building a successful HR consulting business and aligning HR with goals.
✅ Advice for improving workplace culture, retention, and growth.
✅ And much more.
Most small business owners want to build great teams and cultures - they just need the right support.
By partnering with proven HR experts like Sarah Chang and Clearwater HR Consulting, they can minimize risk while unlocking the real benefits of a healthy workplace.
