Upstate Talent + Leadership Solutions
We are a one-stop shop for business planning, workforce management solutions, and leadership development. We bring more than 15 years of experience in human resources, strategic planning and leadership coaching. This experience spans both the for-profit and non-profit sectors, and companies ranging in size from one to 20,000 employees.
Our sweet spot is the mid-sized company. We love entrepreneurs. We want your business thrive. We want you to reconnect with the joy of running your business. We help you lead well, and free you to spend your time on the things that will grow your company.
We do this by connecting you with reasonably-priced technology options to handle the routine aspects of workforce management. We'll help you spend your time and talent on the work that will add value to your company - things like strategy, business development, interfacing with customers, and growing talented leaders who will be the future of your company.
Change your balance, change your life.
When it comes to managing your workforce, it's easy to have the wrong balance.
We know you have limited time to devote to managing your workforce. It is easy for most of that time to be taken by administrative and compliance work that doesn't necessarily add value to the company. When this happens, the temptation is to either ignore or outsource the areas that actually need a personal touch.
Our model changes the balance.
Advancements in technology have created high-functioning, low-cost workforce management alternatives that work for most companies. We understand this technology and can connect you with the right tools for you. Then you can move from working in your company to working on leading your company well.
VISION WITHOUT ACTION IS MERELY A DREAM.
ACTION WITHOUT VISION JUST PASSES TIME.
VISIONS WITH ACTION CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.
- JOEL A. BARKER

What about the gray areas?
Not every workforce management need can be met through technology. We are also equipped to help you with the "gray areas." These are the functions that cannot be managed well through technology, and are outside of your current scope of expertise.
This is where our experience as HR practitioners comes in. We work with you on a plan to address the gray areas. This might involve creating a process that you can manage, building a program that someone else in your company can run, or outsourcing the ongoing work to us.
We work together to see what makes the most sense for your company and arm you with a plan. Here are a few of the things we can help with:
-
Recruiting
-
Onboarding new employees
-
Training
-
Metrics dashboards
-
Building company culture
-
Audits
-
Coaching
-
Short-term project management
-
Responding to unusual employee issues
-
Employee surveys and response plans
