Clarity first
Consulting & Advisory
The short version
Consulting & Advisory is episodic, project-scoped, and diagnostic: you get an outside expert's diagnosis of a specific hiring, talent, or HR problem and a practical plan your team can run. It is not an ongoing engagement, and we do not take over running the function.
Who it is for
When this service fits.
This fits leaders who know something in their talent or HR process is getting in the way, but want a clear diagnosis before committing to a larger engagement.
What is included
- Talent strategy and workforce planning
- Recruiting process and workflow design
- HR process improvement
- Hiring and HR diagnostics
- Interviewer and hiring-manager training or enablement guidance
- Metrics and reporting design
- A practical written plan with prioritized next steps
How it works
How the engagement works.
01
Name the friction
We look at the business context, the current process, and the decisions that are taking too long or producing the wrong result.
02
Find the useful change
We separate the urgent from the important and identify the few changes most likely to improve hiring or people operations.
03
Leave a workable plan
You get clear recommendations, priorities, and next steps your team can act on. Any follow-up advisory work is scoped separately.
A useful distinction
Advisory or ongoing ownership?
Consulting & Advisory
We diagnose a specific problem—hiring process, talent strategy, or HR workflow—and hand you a clear plan and priorities your team executes. No ongoing ownership. No standing engagement.
Fractional HR Management
We come in as your fractional CHRO and own and run the HR function day to day on an ongoing retainer or hourly basis.
The two can work together: start with advisory to get clarity, then engage Fractional HR Management if you want us to run the function.
