How Turning
the Corner Can Help

A great human resources team thinks about talent management, employee engagement, and retention, organizational growth, and change, legal compliance and more.  It’s not easy keeping all these very important initiatives moving forward simultaneously. In fact, it can be just about impossible on your own. We partner with companies like yours to develop, launch, and manage mission-critical programs based on a carefully crafted HR strategy that we call the REAL People Culture building program – Recruiting, Engagement, Alignment, and Leadership. Here’s what we do:

We start with an HR Gap Analysis where we identify gaps and the greatest areas of opportunity to improve or enhance organization’s people operations.  We look at all aspects of your organization and make sure we have a great handle on what you’re doing well and where we can help. We’ll provide you with a summary report and project plan that guides our action plan.

R: Recruiting

Recruiting and Hiring Strategy and Process

We offer recruiting services (link to page), but many times, what you need is help building the Recruiting and Hiring Strategy and Process. We work with you to develop a recruiting and hiring process that will enable your organization to hire the right talent, reduce stress, and minimize the cost of filling vacancies. You’ll get a mapped out workflow of your hiring process, checklist, interview questions, job descriptions and job posting templates, interview training and offer letter templates. 

Onboarding

Recruiting without an onboarding plan makes your efforts a revolving door of talent. We think that Onboarding is more important than anything else you do in the hiring process.  We’ll help you create an onboarding plan that will help your organization retain the talent that you’ve worked so hard to acquire which will create a positive, energized employee experience from day one for your new employees.

New Leader Integration

Most of the recruiting we do is for strategic positions that usually are leadership roles. Being more deliberate about how you integrate the new leader into the organization can accelerate the effectiveness of the new leader and the team. We will help by increasing the new leader’s knowledge of their team (priorities, issues, personalities, expectations). Both the team and the leader benefit from this deliberate support. We’ll also increase the new leader’s team trust and confidence in the new leader by sharing their background, perspective on the organization and vision /priorities, and the leader’s style. This allows the team to learn more about communication style, ask questions about their leader and build a relationship more quickly.

E: Enablement:

Mission, Vision, Values or Your Goals, Why, Values

We all know how important it is to know “your why”, values, and be clear on goals. However, spreading this throughout the organization is the challenge. We will help your organization craft a compelling and inspiring focal point that creates alignment and ensures you are working toward the same goal/purpose. Identify your values – what is important to the organization and how do you want your employees to show up each day? We will work with you to understand how you hire, fire, manage, train, govern, promote and compensate based on your why, values, and goals. 

Performance Management

As fellow leaders and managers, performance management has not been our favorite thing to do until we got to Turning the Corner, and now we see how essential it is to the success of the business. We will create a performance management program that represents your culture and supports employees in achieving success. Most importantly, it encourages ongoing and consistent communication around performance between the employee and manager. We’ll incorporate your philosophy, your performance cycle and process, reviews, goal setting tools, competency development, 1:1 template, rating scale and definition for your culture, and what to do when you have a poor performing employee. There is not a cookie cutter solution! It will be customized completely to you.

Compensation:

Clearly everyone works to be compensated, but as you grow, your strategy around how you compensate your employees will change.  We will work with you to help your organization develop your compensation strategy to be competitive in the marketplace and the components needed to meet your compensation objectives. We take into consideration your compensation philosophy, current compensation with a comp analysis. We’ll help you put together a thought salary band, job leveling, and plan around compensation increases including raises, bonuses, and other compensation.

A: Alignment

Transitions, Mergers, and Acquisitions

Often the hardest part about taking action is that first step. We make it easy with a free phone consultation. In this call, we help you clearly define the challenges you face and your desired outcome so that you have a better sense of what needs to be done. Then you can decide if you would like our help in achieving your objectives.

Finding the best people is challenging. It’s also crucial to your company’s success. Effective recruiting takes patience, experience and diligent research. Our recruiting services focus on more than just applicant qualifications. We diligently pursue potential employees who fit your culture, have a strong desire for growth and who can make an immediate positive impact.
