Chief People Experts

Embedding fractional People Leaders in mission-driven organizations so you can focus on the work that matters

People problems don’t stop. 

But the good news is, neither do we. 

Whether you're navigating a leadership gap, a team in freefall, or an HR infrastructure that hasn't kept up with your growth, we have someone who has been in that exact situation before

coLeaguers don't consult from a distance — they join your team, learn your culture, and show up as your People leader for as many hours a week as you actually need. They can sit with your executive team, talk to your board, handle the strategic and the day-to-day, and adapt as your priorities shift. 

And because they're backed by our entire network of coLeaguers and our ongoing support, they're never figuring it out alone. Neither are you.

From the C-Suite To the Front Lines

We own the entire talent vertical. Yep. The whole thing.

Most fractional HR firms work at the C-suite level only. We have Chief People Officers, HR Directors, Business Partners, HR Managers, and Recruitment Directors in our network — the full spectrum. Organizations at every stage need different kinds of support. Whether you need ongoing fractional leadership or a targeted consulting project, we know someone who can help.

We've Been In Your Shoes. Many, Many Times

coLeague was founded by Lora Cover, a talent leader with 25+ years at organizations like Teach for America and Cleveland Metropolitan School District, who wanted to build the firm she wished had existed when she was starting out. Running the business day-to-day is Sarah Braver, a three-time founding Head of People who has spent her career solving exactly the kinds of problems our clients bring to us. Combined, we’ve seen virtually every people challenge a mission-driven organization can face, and we’ve built a network of coLeaguers who have, too.
