Details

Your Sweet Spot Life is seeking to develop a pioneering HR framework that balances the autonomy of independent collaborators with the stability of salaried employment for its joint venture partners. The challenge lies in crafting a structure that fosters innovation and flexibility while ensuring job security and consistent benefits. This project aims to explore and design a hybrid HR model that aligns with the company's ethos and operational goals. Learners will analyze existing HR models, identify key elements that can be integrated into a hybrid system, and propose a comprehensive HR structure that meets these dual objectives. The project will require a thorough understanding of HR principles, employment law, and organizational behavior to ensure the proposed model is both innovative and feasible

Deliverables

The project deliverables will include a detailed report outlining the proposed hybrid HR structure, including its components and implementation strategy. Additionally, a presentation summarizing the key features and benefits of the proposed model will be prepared. The deliverables should also include a SWOT analysis to evaluate the potential strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats associated with the new HR structure.

About us
We are capturing what it means to be Canadian—one resource, one product, one story, one experience at a time. Our process begins with local natural resources, crafted by passionate creators who turn raw materials into meaningful works. Each creation tells a story—of learning, making, and transforming—connecting us to our culture and community. Through these efforts, we showcase how creation inspires, empowers, and leaves a lasting impact on those who experience it.

Motivation and Ideology
We are driven by a commitment to reshaping the way resources are sourced, products are made, and communities are supported. Our goal is to create sustainable, high-quality goods that reflect Canadian culture and values, challenging traditional models of production and consumption.

Resource Development
We work tirelessly to find truly Canadian resources, overcoming the challenges posed by global outsourcing. Partnering with universities and local groups, we aim to discover, develop, and utilize local materials for a sustainable, ethical product line.

Creation and Innovation
Through collaboration with creators, we develop innovative products that highlight Canadian craftsmanship and creativity. Our focus is on providing the tools, resources, and support to help creators build products that are both sustainable and meaningful.

Community Engagement
We believe in the power of collaboration and are actively working with local businesses, schools, and community groups to foster long-term, sustainable growth. By building strong partnerships, we support the development of local industries and create a more resilient economy.

Market and Sales
Our marketplace serves as a platform to sell not only our own products but also those created by other local artisans and businesses. By offering sustainable, high-quality products, we aim to make ethical consumption the easy and logical choice for consumers.

The Vision
Our vision is to build a self-sustaining ecosystem where Canadian resources are prioritized, and businesses are empowered to thrive. We are working towards creating resource hubs and a CRM system that will streamline the development of local products and services, creating a lasting impact on communities and industries.
