About Us
Starf® - founded in 1998, was based on the idea that managing staff is a day-to-day process and managers must have an integrated system that effectively provided them with the structural support they must have to be effective. So we created an integrated set of tools that allow people to focus on what is important to them, making the emotional job of human resource management, for large and small employers simple.
Starf is clever through its simplicity, relevant (it’s easy to get agreements with staff about what works), systematic (so things are always improving), efficient (to save time) and best practice (reducing risks).
The goal of Starf is to be the world’s leading best practice online HR tool for employers. We aim to provide the best possible way to create alignment with your human resource.
With Starf, you can use the information collected to continually improve the performance of your business. Our customers make the best decisions with their employment relations, it’s that simple.
All our customers achieve the best ROI (Return on Investment) - we maintain a lean in-house team of committed professionals and provide a flexible system to help them manage their business goals.
We source support and infrastructure from carefully selected suppliers and source our sales and marketing through a network of Licensed Sellers.
Starf certifies independent Starf Pro® Coaches and Trainers who work virtually, as well as license those who may be working with our larger client organisations.
At Starf we understand our customers benefit by our willingness to transfer our knowledge.

November 2008 - World first online human resource service revolutionises recruitment and performance management activities.
Starf Online is the first online recruitment and performance management service for small to medium sized businesses. It reverses the conventional hire for skills, fire for values adage.
Starf Online is a revolutionary new system that gives managers the tools and support to effectively and efficiently manage people. It also adds an enormous degree of understanding and structure to the art of human resources.
Recruitment, performance reviews and performance management become an exciting and inspiring opportunity for all parties. Bad hires are minimised, workplace morale improves and the level of respect that employees have for their managers and the business increases.
Company founder, Ranald Hendriks says he got the idea from over 20 years of consulting to business – that there was a real need for structural support to assist managers in managing. “We’re not taught how to manage, so it tends to be emotions that run the employment relationships. Starf® helps balance all that. It helps managers help people and that makes for better managers and better people.” says Ranald.
