Willow Creek Consultants
March 30th 2007(208) 762-8638
Willow Creek Consultants will help you spend less time hiring good employees, eliminate employee turnover, and build a high performance workforce. Because labor costs are typically second only to material costs, Willow Creek's systems are used by many companies to reduce costs and improve profitability. By combining the best tools on the market with the latest technology in Internet-based delivery, even the smallest company has access to human resource capabilities typically found only in large corporations. Programs from Willow Creek Consultants include:
 
  • Labor law compliance
  • Employee selection and background screening
  • Performance evaluations
  • Leadership development programs

Willow Creek's Step One Survey Assessment (a candidate screening tool) has been proven in study after study to take the guesswork out of hiring employees that are reliable, honest, hard-working and substance-free. This 20-minute assessment, at a cost of less than $20, consistently reduces first year employee turnover by more than 30%.

Changing business practices involves risk. Willow Creek Consultants has been successful at taking the risk out of change. First, their tools and systems meet or exceed all government requirements and have supporting documentation. Their systems are used successfully by over 35,000 companies. Next, they provide training seminars and newsletter articles to educate members on simple tips and techniques that improve productivity at little or no cost. Then, at no cost, they provide a 30-minute Confidential Needs Analysis to identify specific problem areas and improvement opportunities. A no-cost demonstration allows each member the chance to see how their programs provide immediate improvements, without adding administrative burden. Finally, there is no long-term subscription or service contract to fulfill. Assessment tools and support services are charged at a discount, as-used price, with additional discounts for volume purchases.
 
See the WFC document library for a Special Report describing The New Art of Hiring Smart which has been proven to reduce employee turnover and improve productivity. Also attached is a case study for a Fire and Rescue Department describing how they are able to hire top-performing firefighters eighty percent of the time.
