| Prior to launching Platinum
Resource Group, Christi Haley Stover, a strategic consulting and recruiting
expert, noticed how typical professional service firms were viewed
as cold and corporate, while jobs and clients were viewed as a one-time
holes to be filled. Christi also noticed a shift amongst front-line
business leaders in the way work was being done.
In the past, senior management committed to a variable workforce
strategy: employees executed routine processes, while contractors
were tapped for peak period work and specialized expertise. With
new financial constraints, the variable workforce was the first
to go. Then employee headcount was reduced, but the pressure to
perform remained.
| To cope with these new business
challenges, front-line business leaders started taking a new approach.
Instead of simply filling roles with permanent or contracted positions,
work and workers were being defined by smaller specialized projects
each defined and monitored to achieve specific business needs.
By shifting to this results-oriented approach, the most experienced
professionals could be engaged for the appropriate amount of time
and focused on the most critical work.
Christis vision was to develop a company with this results-oriented
approach, helping businesses achieve and do their next new thing.
Within this vision is a company that values personal long-term relationships
and conducts business with warmth, integrity and trust. As a result,
Platinum Resource Group was born. From our team to yours, we look
forward to serving you.
