HR and Workforce Consulting for Organisations Navigating Change
Not every people challenge is a recruitment problem. HR functions stretched beyond capacity, leadership capability that has not kept pace with growth, workforce structures that no longer fit the strategy — PERSOL’s consulting practice works with HR and business leaders to address these at the root.
Our consulting practice is built on the combined expertise of BTI Consultants and Intelligence SMC, two of Asia Pacific’s established HR advisory practices, now unified under PERSOL and delivered regionally under the PERSOL Consulting Group (PCG) brand.
HR practitioners across the region operate in a fast-moving environment. Regulatory change, talent market shifts, and the pressure to manage headcount efficiently while retaining key people all require advisory support grounded in current market reality. Our consulting team draws on PERSOL’s live recruitment intelligence and decades of employment experience across Asia-Pacific to provide advice that is practical, specific, and implementable.
Four Practice Areas, One Integrated Approach
Advisory, capability building, and transition support that work together.
Organisation Development
When workforce structures, HR processes, or team capabilities are no longer aligned to where the business is going, surface-level adjustments rarely hold. We work with leadership teams to diagnose current-state gaps and design practical solutions across Organisation Design, HR Diagnostics and Strategy Development, Labour Law Consulting, and HR Systems Design and Implementation.
Learning Academy
Building leadership capability is one of the most consistently underdeveloped priorities in the region’s SME and mid-sized business community. We deliver bespoke Leadership Development, HR Development, and Corporate Development Programmes designed around your business environment and specific capability gaps.
Programme areas include: leadership fundamentals and executive presence, business succession planning, coaching and delegation, conversational leadership, negotiation, managing workplace dynamics, and women in leadership.
Advisory Service
Staying current with employment law changes, compensation benchmarks, and workforce trends requires ongoing attention most HR teams cannot sustain alone. Our Advisory Service provides regular workshops and seminars on local labour law and market trends, compensation and benefits strategy guidance, and access to our Learning Management System, a 24/7 e-learning platform with an HR document template library.
Career Transitions and Outplacement
Restructures and workforce reductions carry real organisational risk, including reputational exposure, declining morale among remaining staff, and the obligation to support departing employees well. Our practice covers notification coaching, employee separation advisory, retirement readiness assessment, change management for remaining teams, and sustained career direction support.
Events, Workshops and Seminars
Our consulting team runs a regular programme of workshops and seminars covering employment law updates, compensation and benefits benchmarking, and the workforce trends shaping hiring across Asia-Pacific.
These sessions are designed for HR managers and business owners who need to stay current with legislative and market change without dedicating significant internal time to monitoring it.
Reports & Insights
Our research programme tracks workforce sentiment, compensation movement, and hiring intent across the region, giving HR and business leaders an evidence base for planning rather than anecdote.
