HR Support Case Study: Strategic HR Support

Our client has a strong tactical HR department that executes daily HR tasks, including employee relations, recruitment, payroll/HRIS, compliance, and performance management. The leadership team needed a deeper strategic HR perspective that tied together cross-functional areas such as sales, marketing, IT, operations, and finance. The lack of depth created a gap between business execution and people development, morale, and alignment.

Our strategic HR leaders supported the executive team regarding coaching, resource allocation and budgeting, training and development programs for their teams, compensation strategy (short- versus long-term), and an overall layer of transparency to align the organizational goals.

We were able to deliver the following:

• Sales: Established quarterly and annual sales quotas based on historical input and market potential and restructured the sales organization into different. roles/responsibilities based on experience level, skills, and customer needs
• IT: Partnered with IT leadership to create cross-functional training, eliminating single points of failure.
• Operations: Created a monthly incentive program focused on customer delivery, retention, and building the business.
• CEO: Provided HR guidance with transparency and communication, focusing on the top two business initiatives.
• Marketing: Created career paths so employees could see their current state and their potential for growth in the business.
