As we move into the next phase of dealing with the pandemic, there’s no question that an effective HR function is key to business survival and success. So, what better time to talk to our lead HR consultant Diane Johnson. 

Coaching, caring, keeping

Diane is committed to delivering what she calls “impactful HR”. Her “can do and hands on” approach to working with business owners and leaders often brings about immediate and impressive results, enabling increased people performance, improved engagement and better productivity.

As a trained coach, Diane also knows how to get the very best out of employees. “Caring for your staff, creating great working conditions and facilitating their training and growth, is the royal road to keeping great people and growing a business,” Diane tells us.

However, staffing brings its own challenges. “It’s a simple fact of business life that thorny people challenges will arise,” explains Diane. “It can be difficult to remain impartial when there are problems. So I will diplomatically and sensitively untangle the issues for you and your business.”

A focus on smaller businesses

All RfM Transform services are designed to meet the needs of smaller businesses who may not have access to specific expertise, like HR, in-house.

“Smaller businesses in particular need good staff – and that requires good structures,” says Diane. “I like to work directly with owners and leaders to create a bespoke suite of HR solutions, and put in place the processes and procedures that will enable the businesses – and its employees – to thrive.

“As a coach, I can then help you think about all the ways you can grow and retain the very best talent your business needs to succeed.”
