year-on-year growth of 50% to over 100%.


 

 

Human Resources is not about low-level administration and paper shuffling. Competitive pressures have transformed this function into one that absolutely demands “best practices” to ensure an organization’s future. AB agents will provide you with their extensive experience and knowledge in this increasingly complex field through:

  • Leadership to implement programs and plans that will result in improved business performance and achievement of critical business objectives;
     
  • Expertise to quickly develop innovative and cutting-edge solutions resulting in a more efficient and effective work force;
     
  • Polices and procedures that will allow your business to remain flexible and nimble, and yet provide employees with clear understandings of their roles and responsibilities;
     
  • Talent assessment and development, forecasting of talent needs, and conducting searches to bring on-board the most talented people available to grow your business; and
     
  • Job Analysis and assessment of job design to better fit company and employee needs.

AB has found there are three areas of one-on-one coaching that work best for the development of middle and upper level management. When your review these three areas we wouldn’t be surprised if real live individuals come to mind.

  1. One area of coaching is most easily described as turn-around coaching. This is the employee in whom you see a great deal of potential yet who also has some destructive characteristics that put them at risk for future employment.
     
  2. The next category could probably be described as skill development. An employee who needs new skills to maximize their contribution in their current position. This coaching category is also often used for employees that are moving up in responsibilities and you want to cut their learning curve and accelerate their contribution.
     
  3. The final coaching category could probably be described by the term, “It’s lonely at the top.” The senior executive who realize they need to dialogue with a person with a similar level background for feedback and growth.

Cultural Assessment
AB recognizes the need to align a company’s culture with its strategy for future success. The greatest threat to a company’s new strategy is its old culture. AB defines a culture as “the collective habits of thinking and behavior that drive your organization and produce its results.” What is your company culture and how is it impacting your strategic performance?


Cultural Design
Once you have determined the gap between your current culture and the culture you need to support your new strategy, AB Transport, Inc. agents will help you design a culture which is more likely to produce the results you want.


Strategy Design
If your strategy for the future is unclear or unlikely to produce the results you desire, AB agents will help you improve that vision. If you are confident in your strategy, AB agents will utilize it as a tool to support your other improvement activities.


Culture Instillation
AB agents will help you and your leaders apply the new culture and tie it closely to your strategy. We can help you and your leadership drive the culture through the organization in a way that employees see their place in it. Employees can then discover the personal benefits of living in this new environment. Only then will employees support and help lead change.


Critical Position Analysis
In many circumstances, a company’s success depends upon 2-3 critical positions performing well. This CPA provides an assessment and training method to ensure the success of these critical positions.


Business Needs Assessment
