How it all started
My journey often begins with a deep dive into the structures of various organisations operating in similar realms. Take, for instance, my recent foray into an IT industry startup. The key here is to understand the diverse array of products and services within the tech and IT sectors. This exploration isn’t about replicating systems blindly; rather, it serves two fundamental purposes.
Firstly,
it’s about understanding how objectives shape systems. In a field as dynamic as IT, observing how different organisations align their systems with their goals offers invaluable insights. It’s a study in strategic design – how similar aims can lead to varied yet effective approaches.
Secondly,
and perhaps more intriguingly, it’s about the human element in these systems. As a wise friend once put it, “HR is complex because humans are.” This statement resonates deeply with me. Every system and every structure is essentially a response to human behaviours and needs. In the workplace, there’s rarely a definitive ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ – each solution is contextual, shaped by the unique tapestry of human interactions within that organisation.
“Thus, being open to adapt and evolve becomes crucial.”

Regularly reading, researching, and staying attuned to the latest trends and practices in the industry is not just about gathering information; it’s about sparking ideas, fostering innovation, and brainstorming for the future. Every piece of knowledge, every bit of insight gleaned from these explorations, becomes a potential ingredient for a new, bespoke solution – a solution tailored for the complex, ever-evolving landscape of human-centric organisations in the tech world.
