Building Strong HR Talent
When working with us on a consulting engagement, you will find that we freely share our knowledge and experiences with you as well as bring you best practice information and up-to-date research from thought leaders in the field which will further reinforce your role as a center of expertise.

Lean HR
hr connection is working to bring Lean and Six Sigma tools into HR functions and to partner with HR to bring them to other areas of the business. Additionally, hr connection provides the change management expertise needed to implement and sustain the improvement opportunities that have been identified.

Best-in-Class Talent Processes
hr connection takes a systemic approach to talent management by helping you align your people processes with your business strategy. If you are just beginning to build your talent management processes, we can help you design and implement an organization-wide talent management system that incorporates all of the key talent management areas: workforce planning, selection, onboarding, performance management, compensation philosophy, competency identification, development planning, and succession planning.

If you have already established these processes in your organization we can review your current processes and make suggestions on how they can be better aligned or integrated with your other processes to more fully realize their bottom-line impact.

Organizational Design and Effectiveness
We can help you identify the core organizational capabilities needed to support the strategy of your organization, which, in turn, will drive the alignment of the people and the operations.

Organizational Culture
Through hr Horsepower, we can help you measure the key elements of your culture, determine how engaged your employees are within that culture, and identify opportunities to improve or modify those cultural elements that no longer fit the organization.

Human Capital Analytics
Our goal is to help you define what to measure and how to use that data to support fact-based strategic decisions that not only improve human capital management practices, but also cut costs and help improve business performance.

HR Technology and Social Media
Working in partnership with you, we will help you translate your business drivers such as growth, talent management, and cost control into a strategic technology roadmap, and help you evaluate vendors. Additionally, given the rise in importance of social media in the way business is being conducted, we can help you design basic social media policies and procedures to better support your organization's evolving needs and can collaborate with you and others in your organization to build a comprehensive social media strategy.
