Our most valuable service to you isn't finding you people, it's applying our expertise in the world of people (sourcing, employment branding, workforce planning, talent mapping, recruiting, on-boarding, performance management, training, change management, etc.) to help you achieve your business goals.  In short, aligning how you approach human resources to your larger business strategy to accelerate growth.

Can you answer these questions:

• What is your average cost per hire for each position?
• What is the bottom line impact of increasing your average quality of hire by 20% for each role in the organization?
• What is your average retention and turnover cost?
• What is the current engagement and productivity level of your team?  Is it going up or down?
• How much would training improve those numbers?  Which training would improve them the most for the least cost?

These are some basic metrics and most companies have no idea.  HR is really the last frontier in optimizing business as it's traditionally been somewhat of a blackbox where the relationship between business profits and HR were concerned, but this also represents vast untapped potential in most organizations.  This is how we can help you most.

We'll provide detailed assessments of your company's HR in areas such as systems efficiency, organizational structure effectiveness, workforce competency, & employee spirit.  The assessment will lead to the development of a specific HR plan to help create alignment with your business strategy, provide on-going real time metrics, and enhance overall organizational performance.  The results are typically:

• Lower cost per hire
• Better retention
• Inceasing quality of hires
• Forward looking workforce strategy for faster marketplace agility
• Enhanced promotion and succession strategy
• Greater engagement & productivity
• Superior business innovation
• Growth stability
• Less depenence on key employees
• many more...

Strategy & Deployment

We believe in growing dreams, and that doesn't happen alone, in most cases it's a collaboration of many people, ideas, tools, and resources working together in the same direction.  The satisfaction that comes both from achieving those goals, and being in that space of flow where everyone's on target, running smoothly, making things happen is what we live to create.

In order to do this we've found the best thing we can do is take on a role of strategic partner bringing our expertise to your organization to redefine your organization's HR excellence.  This is a "plant a tree" rather than "buy the fruit" approach.  While conventional recruiting/staffing solutions cost you over and over, working with us to implement better internal systems stay with you and pay compounding dividends quarter after quarter and year after year.

The math is simple, you could pay $5000 everytime you want to hire someone...or you could pay $15 000 once to save $2500 everytime you hire someone.  You could pay $10 000 to get someone exceptionally great, or you could pay $50 000 to continually improve the quality of your whole team over and over, say 10% each year.

Hire with greater ease than your competitors due to a uniquely formulated HR strategy, grow faster from organization wide innovation, and remain stable in spite of change with competency balancing.  These are just some of the advantages of the long term strategic approach to HR, and we'll help you deploy it as well to ensure it doesn't cost you in organizational capacity.

A Different Approach

Often businesses are missing the low hanging fruit.  Here are some examples of how an organization might gain massive benefits by looking at their strategic approach as opposed to their allocation of resources.

Offer vs. Effort - Rather than pay more to recruiting firms to get great people, formulate a better offer. Having a compelling offer will naturally attract more people at no additional cost.

Force vs. Focus - Rather than paying more for advertising imploy better targeting.  One phone call can do more than thousands of dollars in advertising if you know who to call.

Quantity vs. Quality - Rather than employ more people eliminate ineffective work from the existing team and increase productivity.

HR needs to be viewed the same as all other areas of business, inputs vs. outputs.  What are the costs and what are the returns?  If decisions aren't or can't be made this way the organization is doomed to struggle.  Contact us for more information about how to accelerate business growth using HR strategies.  For most businesses, their people are their competitive advantage.
