Organization Development is Ingenuity Unleashed

Organizational Development (OD) is the art of moving change through your organization in the smoothest manner possible while also gaining the positive investment of your stakeholders. OD is useful when you want to change your company in one of these three ways: developmental, transitional, or transformational changes. A few of the OD processes: strategic planning, performance management, institutional knowledge, succession planning, DEIA, corporate social responsibility, surveys, and barrier analysis are just a few.

Discover the freedom of thinking outside the box—where innovation is fun, sustainable, and profitable. We offer comprehensive OD processes that lead to business solutions designed to keep your organization agile and growing. We pay attention to the details – aligning change management and people strategy with your unique leadership style while at the same time, crafting the internal culture you want to experience inside your organization.

Human Resources Operations & Compliance

Navigating HR complexities is our expertise. We can move at your pace from answering a quick set of questions to conducting a full investigation. We can review a new operations system due to growth, or design a new operations system for a start-up or a greenfield operation. Perhaps you are seeking to restructure your organization, maybe you only need to restructure the HR department, or are you about to enter the M & A space? We have you covered with these services and more. Remotely or on-site, we have the services you need.

Our HR professionals will work with your current HR team, developing them as we complete our work (ask about our HR team training). We fill staffing gaps in HR or TA that occur from time to time, or we can fulfill your full HR function in-house (outsourcing for you) providing a polished representation of your management to your employees and stakeholders.

Consultant, Fractional Executive, or Outsourced

Choose how we work together: in a pure consulting arrangement at an hourly billable rate; as a fractional executive to fill-in during a leave of absence, a staffing change, or perhaps due to growth; or outsource your Human Resources services and we will be your HR Department.

As a Fractional Executive, we step into your worksite under contract as your COO, CHRO, CAO, CoS executive. We excel in fixing poor consulting work, ensuring accurate information, keeping an eye on the triple bottom line, and maintaining compliance. Once our work is complete, we will update your returning executive, or train your new incoming executive, removing the added burden of training from your shoulders, while providing a seamless process for the rest of your company.

Ready to outsource your HR department so you can sleep better at night? We offer full HR Department services, at the right size for your needs, and we can set this up quickly, usually within a week.

Ombudsperson

Our Ombudsperson service offers a proactive and inexpensive approach to handling employee comments, suggestions, concerns, complaints, compliments, and whistleblowing. This is an email-based service with an option for employees to select a follow-up meeting option of a telephone coaching session or a video conference coaching session with a senior Human Resources professional.

Your employees make your business! As people strategists, we listen deeply and help employees communicate with their supervisors and managers. By coaching employees through their communication challenges with their supervisors, we aim to prevent potential legal issues from forming while fostering a learning organizational culture that embraces a true open-door communication process.

Employee Advocate

We help employees rediscover their love for their job without resorting to external agencies to log complaints against their employer or resigning from their jobs.

Turnover costs can be as high as 50% of the first-year salary for each employee who must be replaced and that does not account for the cost associated with reduced operational output. Our team practices deep listening, shares best communication tips, discusses employment law in a non-judgmental manner, and we coach employees on how to have respectful conversations with their supervisor/ manager for a mutually beneficial set of outcomes.

This service is paid by the employee.

This service is NOT AVAILABLE to employees of Business Organizations who offer our Ombudsperson Service. Please follow the steps listed in your Employee Handbook to reach out to us via your company’s Ombudsperson Email address.
