The right Workforce Partner will act as an extension of your internal teams, provide data-driven insight, and create innovative solutions.

-
Attracting Top Talent
Attracting and placing top talent is by far the top area of concern for HR teams and it’s for good reason – people are a company’s greatest asset. The right hire will strength your existing team and allow for greater capacity, while the wrong hire can damage morale, reduce productivity, and cost money.

As company culture changes and adapts filling these vacancies can be more difficult than ever before.

Insider Tip:
When screening candidates, focus more on their fit with the organization. Look for evidence that they enjoy learning, that they’re up for the challenge, and that they’re comfortable with change. The questions should surround overall culture and long-term goals of your organization. By looking out for these qualities, you’ll be creating a team of employees who are likely to achieve the business’ training and development objectives, even as they transform over time.
2) Developing Benchmarks for Success
In today’s team and collaborative environment, having a performance review with employees is a great communication and evaluation tool. Keys to effective performance management include setting clear goals, determining key responsibilities, identifying and using competencies, continuous feedback, and giving objective appraisal for performance. The foundation of good performance discussion is the trust that comes from a relationship between the colleagues. If there is trust, anything can be discussed in a way that is of value.

3) Creating a Quality Employee Experience
It’s not uncommon to find high staff turnover in fast-paced companies. Even though you might manage to hire the best employees, keeping them around becomes the next obstacle and one of the greatest human resource challenges. Rehiring for numerous positions can cost a company a lot of time and resources. By enhancing their experience, your employees will continue to be satisfied with their job. This will lower the likelihood of considering other employers. We’re talking about the modern concept of employee engagement.
