ABOUT US

Partnership for Talent is an independently owned and operated consulting firm specializing in providing high impact strategic HR services to small and medium sized organizations. Because of the background and experience of our principal and founder we are able to bring executive level HR support to organizations who might not ordinarily have it. Let's face it, every organization could benefit from a partner to help think through things like organizational structure, succession planning, key training and leadership development activities, support for managers in conversations with employees, and employee processes to drive outcomes. In many instances, small and medium sized organizations need this type of support for fewer hours a year than extremely large businesses, or on a more intermittent or project basis. Oftentimes, small to medium sized organizations have outsourced much of their HR related work or have a single person who is great at managing the day to day, but could benefit from more strategic HR support provided in a different way than hiring a CHRO in-house. This is where we come in.
