The cooperation with financeAds International GmbH is a prime example of how CoSourcing works without an internal HR department — and still delivers full professional support.

"Working with the KUNO team has been a game-changer for our HR operations. You get the benefit of a whole team of experts, not just a single point of contact. They are proactive in their communication, reliable in their processes, and always bring a solution-oriented mindset to the table – whether it's day-to-day topics or more complex challenges.”

Personal Reflections & Learnings

In the podcast, Erica also shares personal stories — including how her family life and work life influence one another. A guiding principle for her has always been courage to try something new, even when uncertainty is present.

“What’s the worst thing that can happen to me?”

That mindset encourages her to take chances, reflect, and grow through experience. One of her favorite quotes captures this outlook perfectly:

“Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted.”

It’s a philosophy that defines her journey — staying open to new paths, embracing change, and viewing mistakes not as failures, but as valuable lessons.

6. Cleaning Up HR and Payroll Systems

Year-end is the perfect moment to tidy up your systems — not as a theoretical audit, but as a practical clean-up. Over the year, HR Information Management Systems and payroll databases often accumulate incomplete or outdated records.

Now is the time to check:

• Are all relevant employee details complete and up to date?

• Are there information fields or sections rarely used that can be simplified or removed for the new year?

• Should internal structures or data categories be updated to make systems leaner and more efficient?

It’s also worth reviewing data retention and deletion policies: Which personal records must be deleted, and which must be archived for compliance reasons? Regular reviews prevent unnecessary data storage, ensure compliance with data protection laws (e.g., GDPR), and reduce long-term storage and admin costs.

Conclusion: This clean-up creates order, clarity, and data security. It saves time in the coming year and ensures HR and Payroll start 2026 with accurate and reliable data — a small investment with a big impact.
