  • Automating your HR Consultancy with Stephanie Bonnie & Debbie Crompton
    Jan 19 2026

    Welcome to the HR Business Blueprint Podcast. I’m Nikki Masterman, Founder and CEO of Inspired HR.

    In this episode, I’m joined by Stephanie Bonnie and Debbie Crompton, co-founders of Stebbington, a systems and automation consultancy that helps HR consultants build smarter, more efficient businesses.

    We explore how Steph and Debbie went from corporate process and systems roles into running their own tech-focused consultancy, and how their 20-year friendship has shaped the way they work together and support their clients.

    We dive into what automation and CRM systems really mean for HR consultants, from those just starting with spreadsheets to established firms struggling to keep up with growth, and why having one clear source of truth for clients, prospects and processes is critical to scaling successfully.

    Steph and Debbie share insights into process mapping, documenting how your business processes can reduce mistakes, improve onboarding, and make things far easier to delegate, automate and grow.

    We also discuss the role of AI in HR systems, where it can add real value, where human judgement still matters, and how to use technology in a way that supports relationships rather than replacing them.

  • Staying Legally Confident in HR with Daniel Barnett
    Jan 5 2026

    Welcome to the HR Business Blueprint Podcast. I’m Nikki Masterman, founder and CEO of Inspired HR.

    In this episode, I’m joined by Daniel Barnett, a leading employment law barrister, broadcaster on LBC’s Legal Hour and founder of the HR Inner Circle.

    We explore Daniel’s career in employment law and his extensive experience representing cases in employment tribunals, before diving into the realities of working in HR consultancy and the challenges HR professionals face in an ever-changing legal landscape.

    Daniel shares why community and peer support are so important in HR, and how the HR Inner Circle and Virtual Employment Law Academy help HR professionals stay confident, compliant, and continuously learning.

    We also discuss the growing focus on neurodiversity in the workplace and why HR leaders need to be equipped with both legal knowledge and practical support to create inclusive, high-performing organisations.
