Many of our clients don’t need a full-time HR Director; it’s that simple, and to have somebody that they can call on as and when they need HR support works very well.
It’s a progressive way to help organisations manage change – from disposals and downsizing, mergers and acquisitions, to renegotiation of contracts or reappraisal of employee benefits, an interim HR Director can bring experience, objectivity and a determination to get the job done.
You may have someone on a full-time basis in your HR department already, however they just wouldn’t have the same sort of experience. It’s fine getting the basic HR admin done and that needs to happen, although having the opportunity to access more senior-level HR support, especially for strategic decision making, adds an immense amount of value. This is particularly true when you consider that your team and how you direct them play a vital part in making your business a success.
Human Resources has undergone a realignment over recent years, moving from traditional personnel to shared services and business partner model. HR today is much more likely to play a significant role in designing effective organisational structures, developing business strategy and then ensuring its successful implementation. The challenge is in finding HR professionals with the skill set to operate successfully in this more demanding and commercial role.
With MAD-HR, we become your interim HR Director. We work with you to ensure that your business gets the benefit of our years of commercial HR experience but without the continual salary cost.
To be a great interim HRD, you need to have commercial acumen, be great at understanding the issues, have impact and credibility, the ability to influence and be an HR expert. You also need some intangible qualities such as energy and enthusiasm and, of course, a sense of humour helps too; all of which are essential to make the optimum positive impact in the shortest time possible. With MAD-HR, you get that in spades.
Our goal is to identify what your business needs, develop a plan to add value and then implement it with your management team to deliver commercial success.
For us it’s all about creating greater impact and value in our delivery – that’s why we’re all about Making A Difference. Make the most of free expert HR advice and start the ball rolling with a free, no-obligation consultation. You can book here and we’ll contact you to arrange the best place and time for you.
“Very useful – informative and illuminating on how to deliver feedback and identify how different team members contribute and how to use that knowledge to maximise team performance. The ‘Listening Test’ highlighted the importance of checking data! I will be better able to deliver negative feedback; and will further focus on careful listening and note taking. I am looking forward to the balance of the sessions with Amanda.”
