HR Thinking IN Boxes?

When was the last time you consulted with a Human Resources expert? When last did you ask your HR ‘’how well is our employees performing, and how do we improve performance”’ If it was not today, is has already been too long. Your HR is your strategic business partner. I am sure you can agree human resources is real and highly complex.

HR cannot afford to think in boxes. Being strategic in HR means bringing together all things in people in such a way that we can answer the question, “how are our people performing and what impact does it have on the bottom line?’’ Until you are prepared to sit with your HR and are prepared to begin the all-important dialogue to discover the answer, you will not see the value of HR. And that is the role of HR in making money and having happy customers.

 
HERE ARE FOUR KEY PROBLEMS I SOLVE FOR MY CLIENTS AND WHY I NEED A SEAT AT YOUR TABLE:

1. Compliance: Compliance errors can cost you a lot of money and time. Making sure you are following the right steps and staying up to date with the labour laws to know what you may or may not ask in an interview. When and how to issue a warning. Following the correct procedure for disciplinary hearings and asking the right questions in the hearing. This is a problem I solve for a lot of my clients, you will be kept up to date with the labour laws, compliant and manage your risks.

2. Alignment: By nature, I am programmed to help all aspects of your business to align with the organisational goals.

3. Communication: Think of me as Switzerland. When passion runs high or there is constructive conflict, I help my clients encourage harmony and progress and bring the team together by using expert techniques. Employees will share more of their ideas when they feel heard. I help my clients to communicate to the employees what the organisation is working on; it creates transparency and increased loyalty among employees.

4. Growth: Businesses need to grow on a regular basis. When you want to grow your team, I help you find new employees to build your dream team. I also deal with the ones that is not doing their work and is limiting your growth. When you have a high staff turnover, I help determine the root cause of this. Growth means change and I can help you streamline this process when you maybe have someone on your team who does not like change.

I guarantee you that when you reserve that seat for HR at your table and you have the compliance, alignment, and communication right, growth will be inevitable.

I would love to have a cup of coffee with you to discuss your biggest HR needs.
