Are you a small business with little to no HR manpower? Have you reached a point where you know you need more? We’re here to help you fill your HR gaps, giving you more flexibility and a smoother transition. We’ll work with you on an interim basis, acting as your HR director with the appropriate level of support through the transition.

Are you experiencing one of these scenarios?

• Your business is not quite at the point where you’re ready to hire full-time HR staff, but you realize the need to have consistent HR support in the interim
• You have an HR staff member to handle administrative responsibilities, but need strategic-level HR support and can’t justify the salary of a full-time employee
• You find yourself in the unfortunate situation of needing to terminate your current HR professional, but can’t imagine how the business would function without someone in that role, even for a short period
• Or, you love your current HR person, but they need upskilling to grow into the next level of support

If any of those scenarios hits too close to home, you may benefit from interim HR support.

Why Tecum?

Human resources can be complex because, as we all know, people are complex. One of the biggest indicators of this is that, according to a recent Gallup poll, only 34% of U.S. employees are engaged. Organizational blind spots are leading them to simply double down on current “best-practice” approaches to engagement, and it’s not working. When almost 70% of U.S. employees are disengaged, it’s time to blow up the current management models and get back to the basics of business (and life): relationships.

We focus our services through the lens of helping you build relationships in your workplace. When you focus on building relationships, the metrics will follow — not the other way around. While developing processes, procedures, and strategies is obviously important, if your people are not collectively engaged in implementing them, they are ineffective at best. Or, worse yet, become a source of eye-rolling. Fortunately, we have always focused on understanding people as well as processes.
