We make the difficult easy, whether by producing context-sensitive policies, supporting system implementations, refining internal processes, or managing the introduction of new programs — we are there to support your HR operational needs.

Could you be more successful if you could ask everyone “How is it going?” with the merger, new product, reorganization, or global expansion? And ask in a way that you really understand what they are saying, regardless of whether they number in hundreds or hundreds of thousands? Regardless of where they live or the language they speak? Could you be more successful if every month you could see trends in engagement, commitment, or productivity of all employees –by division, department and manager? As companies grow, it is harder to keep people connected between units, or even between management levels within a unit. HR Futures will help you keep communication open, ideas flowing, and leadership closely linked to ebb and flow of your most valuable assets –  the commitment and innovative energy of great employees. We make tangible the challenge of managing intangible assets.

Even the most successful executives need occasionally to pause and examine where they are so as to move forward more effectively. They might be challenged by changing goals, radically different competitive threats, a new CEO, or simply be starting a new job and want to get gain beachhead to move forward as quickly as possible. Our job is to provide the resources for such executives to help them leverage strengths, manage weaknesses, and nimbly move through the landmines that can populate any organizational landscape. Executive advising calls for extensive and honest feedback, tools to constantly improve, and a trusted confidant with whom you can make it happen. 

We will install tools to enable an on-going conversation between employees and senior management, one that “pulses” employees to quickly bring emerging issues to your attention and provide a continuing assessment of your progress. You can use this system to converse with a limited group of employees or everyone at once. And your employees can be entirely candid because they know we protect their identity. Our tools are entirely web-based and require nothing of your IT department. You can be up and operating in days.
