People are the most important resource for any company, yet when organizations are built, the area that receives the least amount of attention is building the structure, processes and strategy for the human resources department. Human Resources is a very complex part of every business. Laws change regularly, employee needs and expectations evolve, and the need to address the foundational areas of the employee-employer relationship is increasing on a daily basis. BCR has extensive expertise in supporting our clients to understand their current HR needs and to help the client supplement tools to ensure a solid HR foundation and support the employee-employer relationship. We have worked extensively with our clients assisting them in the following areas:

• Developing Employee Handbooks
• Developing and communicating position descriptions
• Developing and assisting with the implementation of performance evaluation processes
• Researching compensation trends and recommending compensation strategy
• Researching benefit package trends and recommending changes or modifications to the existing benefit program
• Various HR related research to evaluate changes in HR policy, i.e. shifting from a traditional time off policy to a paid time off policy and evaluating the impact this would have on the organization.

In addition to the foundational elements of HR systems, BCR’s services and solutions address the people issues that will make the difference in achieving powerful results in the areas of:

• Recruitment & Retention
• Training & Development
• Transition & Outplacement

RECRUITMENT & RETENTION

Retention
Keeping the talent you have is high priority. Retaining talented staff can be accomplished by developing and implementing programs and processes that provide a career path for the employee and recognize the employee’s unique contributions to the organization’s success. BCR works with clients to develop and assist in the implementation of career development and career pathing programs, incentive and performance based strategies, and training and skills building programs to equally support the employee and the employer. In addition, BCR assists clients in developing and implementing sound compensation programs.

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT

Morale and Motivation
The right results happen when the right people are doing the right thing, at the right time, for the right reasons. If an effective working environment is absent, nothing happens. Energizing teams, building and implementing programs and processes that reward and encourage innovation and motivation significantly increase productivity and satisfaction while reducing costs of turnover and lost productivity.

BCR has been helping companies enhance morale and increase motivation for over 20 years. We begin by first assessing where the morale and motivation levels are to isolate particular problem areas. Assessments are accomplished through the use of a series of personal interviews, surveys and other methods. Recurring problems are evaluated and potential solutions are developed and implemented. Finally results of the implementation are measured and success celebrated and recognized.

Team Building
Effective teams are essential to maximize performance and create results. Our expertly facilitated team building programs focus on understanding drivers of behavior, improving team dynamics, and maximizing team performance. We work with teams at all levels to meet today’s challenges of immediacy, complexity, integration and diversity. Our team building tools include:

• Workshops
• Behavior Aassessments
• Leadership Assessments
• Executive Coaching
• Satisfaction Surveys
• Company Retreats
