Considering the devastating impact that COVID had on businesses that require in-person interaction, PartnerHero was relatively lucky in 2020. Our offices closed and we moved to a work-from-home setting in March, making it easier to keep our community safe.
Originally made as an internal training document, we're sharing this guide to the outside world today for the first time. If you've ever been unsure or afraid about how to address a trans or non-binary colleague, this guide shares practical advice and exercises that will set you in the right direction to create a supportive environment.
PartnerHero made the annual Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States. Our success stems from our focus on culture and quality.
As startups work to create the future, the very notion of “work” is changing too. For both businesses and the people who power them, the choices and considerations are no longer binary: Employee or contractor? Insource or outsource? Freelancer or gig-worker? Quality or cost? Culture or pay? Office or remote?
And that is what PartnerHero is. A technology-enabled services company that is built to answer these questions and many others.
No one will ever say that 2020 was an easy year.

It’s been three weeks since Tropical Storm Eta landed in Honduras forcing dozens of PartnerHero employees and their families to evacuate their homes, in many cases with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Between then and now, Hurricane Iota also hit the region, causing additional flooding and delaying the timeline for when those impacted can begin rebuilding their lives.

One of the main underlying principles for all of these values is that at PartnerHero, people come first. That's not to say that making and achieving goals, improving business metrics, and following official policies doesn’t matter, but these things can never come before or at the cost of our associates’ well-being.
A little over a year ago, we launched Sidekick as an internal tool to help our support teams atmanage Quality Assurance. Since the beginning of 2018, we’ve allowed open registration for Sidekick so that any customer support team in the world could use it in their own peer review and QA flow.
