HR COACHING

HR policy
A proactive but sensitive HR policy is a key factor in supporting the business strategy and board level decision-making. We benchmark your HR policies and man-power planning issues against our blue-chip checklist to identify effective solutions to tricky business, cultural and performance problems. We can prepare and implement an HR plan with you. The benefits are a skilled, motivated, trained work-force, improved employee satisfaction, reduced staff turnover, clear succession and career paths and better staff and management communications.

Executive recruitment
A recruitment service for high calibre people earning over £40,000 pa. High performers meet goals consistently and deliver up to 5-10 times more “output” than average performers but do not cost much more. Our recruitment service covers job specification, job grading, advertisement, short-listing, initial interviews and salary negotiation. Our added value is in advertising and screening candidates to save management time and effort.

Staff retention
Break the cycle of losing skilled staff and hiring expensive contractors to fill positions and save £5k-£40k per person in operations and technical depts, particularly IT. We find an HR study can recommend practical, low cost measures to address staff morale and retention problems.

HR procedure manuals

A package of documentation and services covering personnel forms, staff recruitment & vetting procedures, discipline and employee & contractor personnel policies. A template for an employee handbook is available. Useful for start up companies or ensuring compliance with recent EU legislation, such as work-time.

IT systems
We provide documentation, system specifications, templates and services to specify, select and implement personnel, appraisal, training, payroll and pension systems. The product helps to reduce man-time and cost by up to 20% in contrast to writing your own specifications and training manuals from scratch. Our service includes design, development and implementation too.

Culture & communications
A communications audit, employee survey and management interviews enable the efficiency and effectiveness of the current communications strategy to be assessed and improved. A good communications process provides people, both external and internal, with positive messages about the organisation and provides feedback on concerns and issues. The programme ensures that employees understand their role and how it fits with the corporate strategy. It aids management to inspire their employees and to inform them of changes in corporate direction. It helps to manage adverse issues, like downsizing, and paves the way to a positive results orientated culture. The study can be the first step to introduce a customer-orientated culture.
