The HR operations spreadsheet that breaks every Monday

The situation this course is for

Every week, the same thing happens: a key HR operations spreadsheet fails, links break, tabs go missing, or data overwrites from mismatched versions. You spend hours Monday morning reassembling it, chasing down inputs, and validating outputs. Stakeholders get delayed. Reports go out late. And by Wednesday, you’re already bracing for next week. This isn’t a one-time fix. It’s a recurring operational tax on your time and trust.

Who this is for

HR operations professionals in mid-to-large tech companies who manage recurring people data workflows across systems and stakeholders.

Who this is not for

HR leaders focused only on strategy, recruiters, compensation specialists, or anyone not directly maintaining spreadsheets or trackers that break under weekly or monthly reuse.

What you walk away with

  • Identify the 3 root causes of spreadsheet failure in recurring HR workflows
  • Replace fragile manual steps with repeatable, no-code automation triggers
  • Build a version-controlled, stakeholder-ready HR operations template
  • Deploy a self-healing structure that survives team changes and system updates
  • Cut weekly HR ops coordination time by at least 50%
