The role of HR in operational success
It’s no secret that the role of HR can have a significant impact on organisations. It brings measurable value against a vast range of measures, yet there seems to be some lingering perceptions out there in the world of work that HR is just about the compliance factors. Of course, meeting compliance obligations is a critical part of HR, but it’s the other raft of value-adds that can help an organisation level up.
Relationships for the win!
As a people and culture consultancy, our approach is unashamedly and unreservedly based on relationships rather than transactions. We work with clients to create a thriving culture, manage change and drive results. While our services fall under three broad categories - consulting, HR leadership and workshops and facilitation - the one constant across all of our services, regardless of client, is our longstanding commitment to building and maintaining relationships.
How effective is your team?
How effective is your team?
Equally important, how much value do you place on team effectiveness?
It’s a question worth asking, because the answer could determine the difference between thriving organisations and those that are, well, the opposite.
Where do people sit within a disrupted environment?
Our Founder, Julia O’Reilly, has spent her career helping organisations and businesses of all sizes to create, maintain and embed a workplace culture that allows people to thrive, with the subsequent high performance that enables commercial success.
Very little in the world of work is stagnant, and change is as inevitable as death and taxes, but how can organisations support their people through times of disruption? It all comes back to solid, robust people practices.
Embracing the opportunity of change
Did you know that our Founder, Julia O’Reilly, includes Change Practitioner in her LinkedIn profile headline? While our work covers consulting, advising and HR leadership, our transformation and change management projects keep us extremely busy. This isn’t surprising, given change is inevitable in life in general, and at work in particular. Think about it: people are constantly adapting to new technologies, strategies and colleagues. When new colleagues join a team, they also trigger new ways of thinking and behaving. This is just the day to day - what about organisation-wide change and transformation? This is where the concept of change can really make an impact, both positive and negative.
A bespoke and tailored approach to HR, people and culture
One of the core philosophies of our approach here at People and Growth Consulting is aligning people practices to organisational goals, regardless of sector or industry. We’re highly regarded for our ability to be operational and hands on, as well as commercially strategic, and we believe our superpower is how our work is informed by data and information. This gives us a framework for analysing the complexity in HR challenges and finding the simplest solutions to address these. Put simply: we have a bespoke and tailored approach to people and culture.
So, who do we work with?
People and Growth Consulting believes that for businesses to succeed, they need thriving people. When people thrive, so do organisations. Getting the people part of organisations right isn’t always easy, and the work we do is focused on helping leaders tackle their people challenges with clear, actionable plans. But who actually are the businesses and organisations we work with? Well, just as there’s no ‘typical’ workplace, each has their own unique features. So too our clients.
