In a Small Business, One Employee Can Make a BIG Difference

In 2002,  Carla Corley founded  Corner Office Consultants, an outsourced Human Resources consulting firm that specializes in the attraction and retention of people for rapidly-growing small businesses.

Throughout her entire career, she has worked with either startup or small to mid-sized companies and saw their struggles in taking care of their most important asset: people. As a national and international consultant, she saw problems in hiring and taking care of people first-hand and started Corner Office Consultants to address them directly. She observed

• Most human resource professionals were too overwhelmed with day to day tasks to tend to needs of employees
• Most small businesses thought HR was simply an employee handbook and that was it – leaving them open to compliance and legal issues
• Many recruiters were not qualified to handle another person’s career and were just focused on a transaction and commission, unconcerned with the needs of the candidate or the company
• Most businesses thought their turnover was due to the WRONG employee and not the company environment.
• Most small businesses are just too busy running their company and don’t have the time, nor expertise to address complex HR issues

Therefore … Corner Office was created to provide General HR expertise to small businesses…tailored the way you want it.

The only unique thing that differentiates a company from its competitors is its people. And yet, that is the area in which the least amount of time and effort is placed. Hiring and developing talent is where huge mistakes occur. That’s where we help. – Carla Corley
