Our Human Resources expertise can be hired on a project-basis or as a partial or total managed outsource. We offer expertise across all the HR domains on a very cost-effective basis. Our HR consultants often deliver with specialists from other areas, such as our software engineers. Our Hindsight365™ performance management application is one byproduct of this synergy. We look for ways to use information technology intelligently, to help HR departments optimize their services and impact their organizations.
Human Resources
We build stronger businesses by prioritizing, building, and improving the strategy around the people and processes that make it all work.
“What we really want to do is to make your HR operations easier and more effective. Whether it’s helping with components of an existing HR program or ideating a new and/or improved one, we align with your vision and goals to get the outcome you want.”
Kathy Hanlon, Practice Lead
When to give feedback: Periodic or ongoing?
An effective performance feedback policy is a great retention tool. Defining its purpose can help determine when feedback should be given and how often.
“Cultivating Success”—not just a slogan, an ethos
Webster's dictionary says "cultivating" is to improve something by labor, care, or study. Few things are more rewarding than that earned through hard work.
Fallacies about staffing agencies
Some organizations are hesitant to turn to staffing agencies. But hesitancy should never be based on myth—and too many decision-makers buy into misconceptions.
When to change jobs: Dread it? shed it!
Inertia is a powerful force. But when it’s the only thing keeping you in your job, it’s time to start looking for your next opportunity. Here are the signs.

Our Approach
People
Attract ~ Develop ~ Retail
Being a preferred place to work is about building a culture that is tangible and real. Whether assisting with components of an existing HR program or ideating a new and/or improved one, we align it with your vision and goals so you can communicate your values and benefits to better attract the job candidates who best fit your organization’s unique needs. We then help establish and deliver the skill acquisition, mentoring, training, and incentivization they need to meet their career goals and feel valued. Employees who feel valued and compensated don’t leave companies. They help grow them.
Program
Define ~ Deliver ~ Measure
When an employee joins your organization, they should feel you are committed to their success. They should feel they have found a career home. Our HR program is holistic. From mission and values to benefits and culture, we help you:
- Demonstrate commitment to employee relationships that is built on accountability, leadership, and teamwork.
- Reinforce an environment that is welcoming and results oriented.
- Invest effectively in your employees—with competitive pay, perks, and benefits.
Equally important, we believe everything should connect with big-picture goals and be quantifiable. Our tools and controls help ensure this.
Platform
Connect ~ Power ~ Scale
Garnet River’s roots are in technology, and we are experts in automation and data analytics/business intelligence. So whether you have an existing platform you need to power to higher performance with greater efficiency…or you want to establish a new platform that integrates with your existing technology stack to boost engagement, we can recommend solutions, implement customizations, and even help with maintenance. The goal is to provide a resource that connects your people—so work and information management is easier, impactful, and more secure and connected.
