This Playbook is for:
New HRD
I joined the company and need to understand the actual state of the HR function within the first 30 days and present the CEO with an action plan with figures.
HR Generalist
You want to structure HR processes in a growing company (50–200 employees), but you don't know where to start or what to prioritize.
HRBP
You prepare analytics for business leaders and need a systematic tool with benchmarks for objective assessment, rather than subjective impressions.
HR consultant
You conduct audits for clients and need a professional 729-point checklist with methodology and report template.
Small Business CEO/COO
There is no HR department or the HR team consists of only 1–2 people, so you need to check what works, what doesn't, and where to spend the budget.

❓ Frequently asked questions (Q&A)
Yes. The Playbook is structured as a step-by-step guide. In Lesson 2, you will see how each section of the checklist is filled out — from the first item to the final index. We recommend that beginners start with the three priority sections rather than all 13 at once.
The complete Power HR course consists of 76 lessons that cover all HR functions in depth. The HR Audit Playbook consists of three lessons with a single focus: conducting an audit, writing a report, and drawing up an improvement plan. You leave with a ready-made result, not just a set of knowledge.
The checklist is adaptable. In Lesson 2, we will show which of the 13 sections are a priority for startups and small businesses, and which ones can be skipped. For a company with 50 employees, the audit can be completed in one day.
The Power HR Audit Checklist contains a special column entitled "For Remote Teams" with recommendations for each item. Plus, there is a separate section 11 — Remote Work Audit (122 items).
