HR
Consulting
Every business,
regardless of whether it is large or small, wildly successful or undergoing challenges,
has unique talents and limited resources. HRA can help your company decide how
best to deploy those resources to accomplish your company's goals.
HRA was
founded by a team of senior level human resources executives. We cut our teeth
and earned our stripes in large companies where we developed deep functional
expertise in all areas of human resources, from organizational work to team
building, from performance planning to compliance.
As founders
of our own company, we've added the practical, operational experience of successful
entrepreneurs. Our clients tell us that makes us unique. We understand people,
building relationships, and the bottom line.
Let us tell
you how we can tailor and combine our range of transactional services to increase
the efficiency and performance of your company.
We can help
with:
Strategic

Human Resource Assessments
Employee

Retention
Strategic
Planning
Outstanding companies are outstanding because they operate under the arch
of a human resources plan that they designed to propel their business ahead.
Every effective HR plan is based on an assessment of current talent vis à
vis the business goals.
Our experts
can help you prioritize your company's people needs and align your resources
and activities accordingly. We can help you get the right people in the right
place and can anticipate considerations that you may not have identified yet.
We document
achievable plans that match commitments to resources and consider likely scenarios
as well as contingencies for when surprises occur.

Human
Resource Assessments
We are experienced at auditing for compliance and process efficiency. We
will identify where your company is doing well, and help your management team
define and prioritize an action plan to address areas of concern. We are not
selfish about the knowledge we have, and as a part of our standard process,
we encourage skills transfer to your in-house H/R team.

Employee
Communications
There is nothing more important than verbal communications between all levels
of company management and company employees. We provide management training
in day-to-day coaching as well as formalized employee performance evaluations.
Employee
handbooks, web site content, policy and practices statements, and training manuals
are all additional ways of representing the company culture and message. We
can assess the appropriateness and impact of the materials you are currently
using; our communications' experts can write or revise any of these materials.

Compensation
We stay current with industry trends. Through ongoing participation in industry
and professional organizations, relationships with placement offices at leading
business schools, and formal market surveys, we understand how other companies
in your region are compensating their employees. We bring this insight to our
clients' decision-making processes. We can also conduct market surveys if you
have a specific requirement.
After assessing
your company's salary structure, variable compensation, options programs, incentive
plans, and sales compensation for direct and channel distribution, we can make
specific recommendations of how to best leverage the compensation options available
to your business. Managerial Training
People management
is every leader's job. We provide supervisory and executive training and team
building in a variety of formats based on your needs.

Retention
Every company wants to retain and grow the good people they hire. We help our
clients stay ahead of potential issues through supervisory training, team building
exercises, periodic review of compensation and benefits structure, and by creating
opportunities for confidential feedback and suggestions for improvement from
employees.
When a business
is experiencing losses, HRA can help management understand why people are leaving.
Usually associates leave because of poor supervision, because their pay and
benefits aren't competitive, or because they don't see career growth, recognition,
or compensation consistent with what they need.
When a neutral
source asks employees how they feel about what is going on -either through exit
or employee surveys-people tend to answer honestly. HRA can help companies collect
this information, analyze the data, and develop a variety of programs to enhance
the retention of key employees.
