SERVICES:  HOW WE CAN HELP

Taking the time to articulate the desired elements of the employment relationship for your organization is of strategic importance.  The employment relationship, at its most basic, is a very simple “work in exchange for money” arrangement.  In this context, an employee is no different than a contractor engaged to renovate your house – you pay for services rendered. Period. However, most employees and employers want more than a “work to rule” arrangement and place high value on a meaningful two-way employment relationship.  This is where HR practices matter.  Aligned People Strategies Inc. offers expertise in many areas of HR including:

STRATEGIC HR PLANNING 

Almost every business decision has human resource impacts.  If your organization is poised for change - be it growth, restructuring, or otherwise:

• Is there a clear plan in place that defines the required changes and the implementation steps to achieve the changes?
• How will you ensure that change occurs effectively? 
• What will be the impact on your employee?
• Do you know which skills / expertise you will need?
• What are the communication plans?

Most change initiatives fail and the underlying causes are often the lack of planning and the lack of attention to the people issues.  Don’t be caught off guard.  Change only happens when people change.
