Meet New Member, Jim Geier, CEO of Human Capital Consulting Partners
Say the words “human resources” and many picture want ads, interviews, benefits briefings, etc. ... mostly the tactical side of hiring and managing people in a business. But organizational thought leader Jim Geier, founder and CEO of Human Capital Consulting Partners, observed a disconnect in the way most companies manage people and hire new ones, one that actually creates a drag on business growth and profits. His unique approach, called “The HCCP Strategy”, is being adopted by small and medium businesses as an innovative way to operate human resources, find and hire new talent, retain talent already onboard, and ultimately to be more efficient and more profitable company.
Geier first developed his breakthrough strategic approach years ago as a top human resources executive at global life sciences and manufacturing companies including Quaker Chemical Corporation, Rhône-Poulenc Rorer Pharmaceuticals (today Sanofi-Aventis) and others. In 2004, he went on to start his own consulting company to bring his unique program to private, public, family-owned and non-profit organizations. Some key areas of focus include:
• Organizational and cultural change management
• Structure & workforce planning assessments
• Compensation strategies
• Succession strategies
• Executive search and talent acquisition
As a full service consulting firm, Human Capital Consulting Partners specializes in the alignment of organizational performance with stakeholder expectations. Jim is a trusted advisor to owners, shareholders, boards of directors, and C-suite executives representing a diverse range of industries who seek the most effective ways to maximize their company’s human capital relative to their business model, strategies and goals.
