Examples of My HR Consulting Work

HR Risk Reduction

In multiple settings, I have built systems to bring consistency and simplicity to processes like:

  • Onboarding + I-9s

  • FMLA and ADA

  • Wage and FLSA issues

  • Disciplinary actions and performance reviews

Recruiting Improvements

In one company I supported, I was able to build out a complete application and selection process, a new application system, train their leaders on effective hiring, and provide them higher quality applicants at a faster speed.

Better Staff Retention

One healthcare client I worked with was dealing with new hire turnover and a gossip culture.

I was able to identify the pain points in the employee experience and resolve them. The employee satisfaction rose and retention became exceptional. Managers spent less time dealing with drama and more time taking care of patients.

How Does an HR Consultant Work?

How does an HR consultant work? Here is my method.

Discovery

Are you wondering when to call an HR consultant or how much it costs? I can help you determine whether it makes sense for you.

I will spend time getting to know your needs in a confidential and informal conversation.

Proposal

I will propose some plan options to explore what might work for you. Bite-sized service or the full enchilada, I only provide what you need:

  • Project Based: I can quote a flat fee to get your project done (e.g., handbook, training, etc.).

  • Hourly Packages: Buy 4 or more hours at a time and get consultations whenever you need them.

  • Retained: Pay one flat monthly fee and get any HR support you need 1 to 3 days per week.

Execution

Whether it’s a quick project or ongoing HR support, I will be your partner in creating solutions and processes that protect your business and improve your results.

Increase or reduce your services (and cost) as your needs flex.
