Classification and compensation challenges – true position planning from start to finish, including identifying workforce gaps that may lead to classification &compensation proposals.
Performance management challenges – how to coach leaders to address issues appropriately to reach the best outcome, including opportunities to provide focused, individual training or broader training to groups of employees.
