Organizations come to us asking questions like:
That’s where we come in.
We help leaders get clarity on what’s happening beneath the surface, then turn that insight into action. Our SHRM-certified HR consultants ask good questions, uncover patterns, and help you build solutions that actually fit your organization — not someone else’s playbook.
No two organizations have the same challenges, so we don’t start with a package. We start with a conversation.
Sometimes you need quick advice. Sometimes you need a strategic partner. Sometimes you need someone to take a project off your plate.
We’ll figure out what moves the needle, then build the right approach together.
Whether you need an ongoing HR partner, help with a specific initiative, or expert advice when something complicated lands on your desk, we’ll meet you where you are.
Your HR partner — for the questions you expected and the ones you didn’t.
Some issues can wait until next quarter. Others need an answer before your next management meeting. With retained support, you have an experienced HR partner who knows your business and is ready to help with everything from day-to-day questions to long-term planning.
Organizations that want trusted advice without friction.
Expert HR guidance, whenever you need it.
Not every organization needs ongoing HR support. Sometimes you just need an experienced partner you can call when something unexpected comes up. We’ll be there when you need us — and out of the way when you don’t.
Organizations that want trusted advice without overcommitting.
The problem you can see is often just the symptom.
Turnover. Burnout. Low engagement. Resistance to change. Most workplace challenges have deeper causes than they first appear. Through surveys, interviews, focus groups, and facilitated conversations, we help uncover what’s really happening — and give you practical recommendations for what to do next.
Organizations experiencing turnover, burnout concerns, communication challenges, culture shifts, or other people-related questions that need deeper understanding.
Custom project pricing, typically ranging from $2,500-$15,000+ based on scope and participant count.
Some challenges need more than a quick answer.
Whether you’re tackling a major initiative or navigating a complex people issue, we’ll jump in as an extension of your team. From compensation projects to handbook updates and performance systems, we bring the expertise, structure, and follow-through to keep the work moving.
Organizations taking on high-impact HR projects that require dedicated expertise and execution.
Varies by service.
Great managers aren’t born — they’re supported.
The skills that make someone a strong individual contributor aren’t always the same skills that make them an effective manager. We help leaders build confidence through practical, real-world training they can apply immediately.
Organizations investing in stronger managers, healthier teams, and long-term employee growth.
Flat rate range: $200-$500/person; $2000+/session
HR support doesn’t always have to start with a consulting project. Sometimes you need an answer to a quick question.
Sometimes you’re trying to think through a people issue before it becomes a bigger one. And sometimes you just want practical tools and fresh ideas from people who have seen it before.
B:Side is our membership community for HR professionals, managers, and business leaders who want ongoing access to the insights, frameworks, and real-world guidance our consulting team uses every day — without engaging us for a project.
Organizations experiencing turnover, burnout concerns, communication challenges, culture shifts, or other people-related questions that need deeper understanding.
We meet you where you are, with services and solutions tailored to what your team (and budget) needs. Reach out and we’ll work together to understand what will help most.
Organizations often come to us with one challenge in mind. But the obvious explanation isn’t always the right one. Here are a few real examples of what happened when we looked beneath the surface.
We Love to Work with B Corps and Nonprofits!
We share your values and understand your unique needs.
Please reach out for courtesy pricing; we’ll even answer one quick HR question for free!
