Syzygy is a boutique HR consultancy focussed on three core areas (Click each to see more):
Virtual/remote or face-to-face assessment – selection, development or de-selection of candidates
Identifying the right people with the right capability to deliver for your business
You’ve got a vacancy and you need to find that ‘one special person’ to fill it. Your business is doing well and instead of recruiting 3 graduates this year, you need 30. You are restructuring your team and need to identify the best fit for the new roles.
We can build and run a virtual/remote or face-to-face selection process using a bespoke, secure on-line platform to help you whittle down the best candidates for your jobs from the shortlist of applicants you have. We offer an end-to-end solution for you – from liaising with your recruitment agencies, competency matching (and developing a framework if we need to), materials selection or development, training your assessors, scheduling and running your assessments (with our team of expert assessors), helping you make well-informed and robust decisions, and providing feedback to candidates. Our virtual/remote assessments can utilise almost all of the different types of exercises we can use in face to face assessments, so you don’t have to compromise the quality of your selection decisions, even if you don’t meet candidates in person.
Whether it’s for selection (recruitment), development (identifying the ‘gap’ between where someone is performing and where you need them to perform) or de-selection (if you are right-sizing a team), we can help you.
We have a wide range of materials in our library which you can buy ‘off the shelf’:
- fact finds
- role plays
- scheduling activities
- in trays
- case studies
- group exercises
We are happy to advise you on selecting the most appropriate exercise to meet your needs. If we don’t have one which ‘hits the nail on the head’ for you, then we can either tailor one of our existing products, or create one for you which can be for your exclusive use, and branded as you wish.
People Management – operational HR support through training, systems and processes
Ensuring you have the right HR and people management processes in place
When was the last time you reviewed your HR policies? Do your managers know what they can and cannot ask at interview? How well are your managers equipped to handle disciplinary investigations?
We can help you with these questions and more – many of our consultants have held operational HR roles and understand the challenges that HR generalists face in partnering with ever-growing and ever-demanding internal client bases. We can share the load, we can provide interim support, or we can run short and sharp development interventions to upskill managers.
Development – helping people to understand each other and work together
Enabling teams and individuals to contribute to your success
How well does your senior leadership team make decisions? Are they effective and do they make the most of their personal styles at work? How aware are key individuals about the impact they are having on others?
We use a range of approaches to enable teams and individuals to work smarter and more effectively. We can facilitate workshops, we offer coaching and mentoring on a one-on-one basis, and we help individuals and teams to better understand themselves and how they can make the most of their work-related preferences. Accredited to use a range of personality profiling and 360-degree tools our aim is to raise awareness with a focus on achieving business-related goals.
So we can help you to build the right team – from finding the right people, to managing them, and developing them to deliver.
