Holistic HR Services – Solutions Based on Advanced Psychology
Most people enjoy working in an organization where people get along and they’re creative and productive. There are times, however, when leadership issues and interpersonal problems threaten a company’s bottom line and it’s success/performance. Those are complicated situations because of what is at stake.
Signs and symptoms that suggest that your organization may be experiencing this category of problems include:
- Absenteeism
- Presenteeism (people are at work, but not productive)
- High turnover
- Poor interpersonal relationships or conflict on teams and/or between leaders/managers and their direct reports
- Counterproductive work behaviours (e.g., theft, fraud, sabotage, insider threats)
- Complaints of harassment / bullying, racism and/or discrimination grievances, and the risk of lawsuits
Each of these symptoms carries significant direct and indirect costs that reduce an organization’s profitability.
When harassment, bullying, and/or problems related to people in leadership positions get to a certain point, it’s riskier to ignore the problems than deal with them. But how? Our Holistic HR Services include:
- Developing a keen awareness of the link between behaviour and profit
- Leadership assessments and leadership/executive coaching to improve self-awareness of leadership behaviours and leadership executive coaching
- Support for leaders and victims from clinical psychologists who understand the unique pressures and demands that leaders and executives face
- Re-visit roles, responsibilities, organizational structure, and reporting relationships
- Support for leaders who may need to deal with personal issues that are spilling over into the workplace
- Strategic staffing to compensate for gaps/problem areas
- Support from experienced mediators; conflict resolution
- Advice and interventions from strategic and values-oriented employment/labour lawyers
- Outplacement services (career coaching) for people who’ve been affected and for whom it’s too difficult to stay in their position
Our team is built of PhD level psychologists with specializations in Work or Business Psychology (officially known as Industrial and Organizational (I/O) Psychology) and Clinical Psychology. As a group, we have over 60 years of combined experience in the private sector, government, non-profits, and dealing with medical/legal issues (e.g., short-term and long-term disability, addictions, disabilities, etc.).
