They helped us indentify individuals with a high potential for future leadership at VISTA tsi and then helped us devise individual development plans for each.  Today, we continue to turn to them for sound advice and counsel for a variety of organizational matters.  They work hard to understand the dynamics of our unique organization and the people within it.  Their insights have improved the strength of our company, and we continue to make them a trusted advisor to us as we move forward.”

Recruiting
Organizational Development


"Human Capital Advisors is rich in talent and expertise.   With their expertise in talent acquisition, they helped us build an internal recruiting function which led to a significant number of key hires. HCA also developed a confidential employee survey to plan human capital development, employee benefits prioritization, and management team feedback and assessment.  The survey results led directly led to higher employee satisfaction.  

 

One follow on action item from our employees was to develop an improved employee performance measurement tool.  The professionals at HCA worked with our human resource and management teams to develop a tool that has received very good reviews from both employees and supervisors. 

 

HCA has become the human capital outreach professionals we look to in times of need.  They have also become regular counselors to our team."

Strategic Advisor

"My HCA principal became one my most trusted advisors who helped me navigate a number of important and challenging areas in my role as a new Chief Executive Officer. My advisor never pulled punches, but was always analytical, supportive, insightful, and, ultimately, instructive. He was instrumental in helping me identify new and more strategic ways to accomplish the goals of my organization, while growing in my relationships with my senior executives and governance."

Performance Reviews

"Human Capital Advisors was a partner to us for the entire process of developing a new performance review system.  They uncovered the specific issues we needed to address when they conducted an employee survey, which indicated we needed a better system for developing our workforce and providing feedback.  HCA then devised a process for establishing our new performance review system that guaranteed senior management buy-in for it. It wasn’t just the new system that was invaluable, but how they developed it that made the difference."
