Services

Executive HR leadership, scoped to the moment you’re in.

Choose the model that matches the risk, complexity, and operating rhythm of your next stage from ongoing fractional leadership to defined-scope advisory and talent architecture.

Tier 1 — Retainer

Fractional CHRO

Ongoing executive HR leadership on a fractional basis: HR strategy and roadmap ownership, executive team and board-level partnership, leadership of any existing HR team, organizational design, culture and engagement strategy, executive compensation guidance, and quarterly people plan reviews.

Ideal for: companies of 100–1,500 employees, or PE portfolio companies between full-time CHRO hires.

Tier 2 — Defined Scope

Project-Based Advisory

M&A Human Capital Due Diligence & Integration

Pre-close people diligence, day-one readiness, and integration playbooks drawn from 11 completed integrations.

Payroll & HR Infrastructure Advisory

Payroll operations assessment, HRIS/payroll selection, implementation oversight, and process controls design.

Compensation & Total Rewards Design

Salary structures, incentive plans, equity and phantom equity program design, and benefits strategy.

Employment Compliance & Risk Audits

Multi-state compliance reviews, leave program design, handbook architecture, and policy risk review.

Talent Development

Leadership development, succession planning, manager capability, and practical programs that build the bench for the next stage of growth.

Talent Acquisition

Recruiting operating model review, role intake discipline, executive search partnership, hiring process design, and talent pipeline strategy.

Talent Value Review

A structured review of critical roles, talent gaps, and value-creation priorities so leadership attention goes where enterprise value is most affected.

Culture Assessment and Plan

A practical review of culture signals, leadership behaviors, operating friction, and engagement risks — translated into a focused plan leaders can act on.

Ideal for: companies facing a specific inflection point — a deal, system change, compliance concern, leadership capability gap, recruiting challenge, culture alignment issue, or talent value question.

Tier 3 — Talent Architecture

Assessments & Organizational Design

Predictive Index Talent Optimization for hiring, team design, and leadership development, plus Talent to Value organization design to identify the critical roles that drive enterprise value.

Ideal for: leadership teams preparing for a growth phase, a new investment thesis, or an exit.
