You can trust us to provide the expert support you need to comply with complex State & Federal Employment Regulations, achieve positive Employee Relations and optimize HR Strategies.
What Does Over 225 Years of HR Experience Look Like?
Meet TPO’s Team of HR Experts!
Each “TPO’r” is a certified, skilled, versatile and inspired HR generalist. That said, each one also has specialized expertise that we routinely call upon for client and member needs and initiatives. It helps that we genuinely like each other and have one another’s backs.
When we think we’ve dealt with every challenging employee and leadership situation we haven’t. Not to mention that HR regulations are super complicated and change constantly. To be true experts we absolutely must share information among ourselves – and we do. Both formally and informally and every day on our client’s behalf.
Every “TPO’r” is a bona fide staff member. No smoke and mirrors of independent unknowns passed off as a team. Every consultant brings decades of HR knowledge, experience, and education – totaling a stunning 237 years of collective HR horsepower on your behalf. The word team gets tossed around a lot, but we truly are your TEAM OF HR EXPERTS!
