This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
3,211 HRBP tools in one course: 2,246 ready-to-use files, templates, checklists, scripts and scorecards, 94 services and apps shown on screen, plus 871 models and methods.
Open a lecture, take the tool, use it in this week's talent review, strategy session or conversation with a business leader.
Why HR business partners stay order-takers
A business leader asks for a hire, a pay rise, a restructure, a fix for turnover. You have an opinion, but no time to build the evidence: the analysis, the matrix, the plan, the wording for a hard conversation. So the request gets processed instead of challenged, and HR stays a service desk. The difference between an order-taker and a strategic partner is rarely insight. It is having the instrument ready when the question is asked.
What changes after this course
You come to every conversation with something in hand: a diagnostic to run, a scorecard to fill in together, a calculation that shows the cost, a script for the difficult part, a plan with owners and dates. Leaders start bringing problems to you earlier, because you help them decide rather than just carry out the decision.
What is inside: 3,211 tools, counted file by file
You do not have to take this number on trust. Open any lecture and read its description: every tool inside is listed there by name.
Where the tools are
Who is teaching
I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.
I have built leadership development around clear expectations and practical tools. At iDeals, I developed a leadership programme and a pyramid with different levels and programmes for each level. It covered ambitions, values, talents and expertise as well as skills. I also developed 21 short webinars and began teaching leaders through them, giving practical tools a place within the broader programme. That experience informs the leadership tools in this course.
How to use the course
Start with the ten core sections on leadership development. Then treat the rest as a reference library. Section and lecture titles show how many tools are inside, and each lecture description lists them by name, so you can find the right tool without watching everything in order.
What is included
Where to start
Think of the next request a business leader will bring you this month. Find its section, open the lecture, and prepare the scorecard or the script before the meeting. Partners who arrive with an instrument get invited to the next decision, and every month of processing requests keeps you out of the room where they are made. Enrol now and start your first lesson today.
