A qualified Principal consultant is attached to your business, providing advice and guidance in all areas of People Management such as recruitment, training, contracts etc. Smaller organisations may have the consultant retained as their Personnel or Human Resource manager or director.

This is the same as above but on a project or fixed time basis. It tends to be a specific area of People Management. Typical projects will include:

• Design and implementation of a Performance Management System
• Development of a Leadership Development program
• Audits of a Personnel/HR function
