THE CHALLENGE
Align . . Enable . . Achieve
Organizations and their leaders are faced with the constant need to evolve their business model, product offerings and marketing strategies to survive and grow. That mandate also applies to how they structure their organizations, manage their human resources and develop their talent.
The need to align and enable the organization has never been more important in the face of increasing complexity and pace of change. All too often leaders lack the expertise, tools or capacity to effectively address organization challenges.
Having a trusted partner who can assess the situation, develop the plan and implement the solution set can mean the difference between finishing first or not at all.
OUR APPROACH
Choosing the Right Path
The first step in moving forward is knowing what you are trying to solve and then finding the right resource to help. We first make sure that we understand your challenge so that we can figure out together if we are the right fit.
We do not have a 'one size fits all' style nor do we offer to solve problems for which we are not qualified. Our approach is to partner with you to quickly determine what is needed and develop the most effective and efficient solutions.
Our primary practice areas are highlighted below.
WHAT WE OFFER
Merger and Acquisition Support
DUE DILIGENCE AND INTEGRATION
From private equity investments in owner/founder lead firms to the merger of more established companies - change is hard. It is easy to spend money and be consumed by "the deal". It's a lot harder to plan for the impact and manage the aftermath.
Our experience ranges from pre-transaction due diligence to leadership talent assessment to post deal HR integration and change management. We excel at the 'soft stuff'
(which really is the 'hard stuff').
Assessment and Alignment
ORGANIZATION EFFECTIVENESS
All organizations no matter their size or maturity face challenges in how they operate. Issues can stem from the top - how leadership sets priorities, communicates or manages their teams. Rapid expansion can result in significant 'growing pains'. Legacy org design and obsolete processes can hamper productivity and impact morale.
We can help to ensure that your structure, people processes and culture are aligned to achieve your desired business results.
Talent Management Excellence
PEOPLE STRATEGIES AND PLATFORMS
Evolving companies often do not have the strategic expertise or bandwidth to ensure that they have the right human resources strategies, structure, systems and processes in place.
We are able to leverage 25+ years of HR leadership expertise to evaluate your current infrastructure, people strategies, and platforms, and internal human resources talent. Then create the solution set and transition plans to close the most critical gaps.
Senior Leadership and Expertise
INTERIM HUMAN RESOURCES LEADERSHIP
During significant business transitions, having trusted advisors and seasoned experts in key people leadership roles is critical. Without the right guidance, it may be difficult to even know what is required to support the people needs of an evolving business.
Whether in an ad hoc senior advisory capacity or providing dedicated leadership for a defined duration - our team can the provide the interim senior leadership and/or technical expertise to help bridge your most critical gaps.
