Working With an HR Consultant

Learn how to properly select an HR consultant to meet your organization's short and long-term goals, whether there is a full internal HR staff or not.

Many organizations overlook the connection between effective human resources management and operational and financial success. While HR has historically been looked upon to provide hiring and firing, compliance or payroll services or training, human resources management has expanded exponentially to include the employee experience, diversity initiatives, retention, and HR metrics and analytics. It's vital that organizations not only keep up with the legal and statutory requirements in the workplace but also the other benefits and work environment employees are looking for as the workplace culture continues to evolve. This presentation will help organizations understand the role of an HR consultant, whether there is a full internal HR staff or not. The topic explains how to properly select an HR consultant to meet short and long-term goals of your organization, what questions to ask before engaging with an HR consultant, and how to define the scope of work.
