Why Von Culin Associates?
Von Culin Associates provides services addressing the business side of people.
Your organization is changing – rapidly. You have a person taking care of payroll and benefits, but you know you should be doing more on the HR side: legal compliance, development and training, staffing, and policy writing. Where do you start; how do you start?
Janis can help you effectively and efficiently navigate the tough people challenges that impact business performance, for instance:
- Refocusing human resources activities to better support organizational goals
- Improving the performance of management teams
- Bringing about lasting organizational change
Particularly adept at solving complicated employee problems, Janis Von Culin is often called on to trouble-shoot or develop effective alternatives to current programs by serving as a strategic resource for the executive team and/or the internal HR staff.
Once you and Janis identify your requirements and budget, you will determine together whether you need Von Culin Associates for one day a week, one week a month, or on a project basis. You can’t get more flexible than that!
