Our Practice

The full HR spectrum, delivered with precision.

Eight practice areas for organizations. Two advisory tracks for leaders. Four ways to engage. One firm accountable for all of it.

For Organizations

Eight practice areas. The complete people function.

Engage us for one area or several. Each practice is led by the same principal, which means your compensation work informs your performance design, and your compliance posture shapes your culture strategy. Nothing operates in a silo.

01

HR Strategy & Infrastructure

For organizations building a people function for the first time, or rebuilding one that has outgrown its original design. We establish the structure, systems, and operating rhythm that let HR run as a strategic function rather than an administrative one.

Includes
  • HR function design, staffing, and build-out
  • HR audit and gap analysis
  • People operations and process design
  • HRIS selection and implementation support
  • Organizational design and reporting structures
  • Board and executive reporting on people metrics
02

Compliance, Policy & Employee Relations

The area where organizations carry the most unseen risk. We develop policies that are legally sound, operationally realistic, and written in language your managers will actually follow. When issues arise, we provide the structure to handle them well.

Includes
  • Employee handbook development and revision
  • Federal, state, and local compliance review
  • Policy development and rollout
  • Workplace investigations and employee relations frameworks
  • Leave, accommodation, and wage-and-hour practice
  • Manager training on compliance obligations
03

Talent Acquisition & Workforce Planning

Hiring is a strategy, not a transaction. We design recruiting processes that are structured, equitable, and aligned to where the organization is going, then plan the workforce you will need to get there.

Includes
  • Recruiting process design and hiring manager training
  • Structured interviewing and selection frameworks
  • Employer value proposition and candidate experience
  • Workforce planning and headcount modeling
  • Onboarding program design
  • Search support for senior and specialized roles

Total Rewards & Compensation

Pay structures that are defensible, competitive, and internally coherent. We bring rigor to compensation decisions so leaders can answer the hard questions about equity and market position with confidence.

Includes
  • Compensation philosophy and pay structure design
  • Market benchmarking and salary band development
  • Pay equity analysis and remediation planning
  • Job architecture and leveling frameworks
  • Benefits strategy and total rewards communication
  • Pay transparency compliance
05

Performance Management & Engagement

Performance systems that develop people instead of just rating them. We replace once-a-year rituals with practices that create clarity, accountability, and the kind of feedback that changes behavior.

Includes
  • Performance management system design
  • Goal-setting and feedback frameworks
  • Engagement survey design, analysis, and action planning
  • Recognition program development
  • Retention strategy and stay interviews
  • Manager capability building for performance conversations
06

  • Emerging leaders and people manager programs
  • Executive team development
  • Custom curriculum and workshop design
  • Facilitation and program delivery, virtual and on-site
  • Learning measurement and evaluation
07

Culture, Change & Organizational Effectiveness

Culture is what happens when leadership is not in the room. We help organizations define the culture they intend to have, close the gap with the one they actually have, and lead change in a way people can follow.

Includes
  • Culture assessment and strategy
  • Values articulation and operationalization
  • Change management planning and communication
  • Employee resource group strategy and governance
  • Merger, restructuring, and growth transition support
  • Internal HR and people communications
08

Includes
  • People analytics strategy and dashboard design
  • AI integration in HR operations and workflows
  • Ethical AI governance for talent functions
  • AI-augmented learning and development design
  • Change management for AI adoption
  • Data-informed workforce decision frameworks
Engagement Models

Four ways to work with the firm.

Organizations engage Praxis in the way that fits their need and their capacity. Many begin with a defined project and move to a retainer or fractional arrangement once the relationship is established.

Model 01

Fractional & Interim HR Leadership

Senior HR executive capacity on a part-time or interim basis. For organizations that need a Chief People Officer's judgment without a full-time hire, or coverage during a transition.

Model 02

Project-Based Engagements

Defined scope, defined timeline, defined deliverable. Handbooks, audits, compensation studies, program builds, and organizational design work are typically structured this way.

Model 03

Advisory Retainer

Ongoing strategic counsel for executive teams and boards. A monthly arrangement that gives leadership a trusted advisor to call before decisions are made, not after.

Model 04

Training, Facilitation & Speaking

Workshops, leadership programs, offsites, and keynotes delivered virtually or on-site. Available as standalone engagements or as a component of a broader program.

For Leaders

Private advisory for the individuals who carry organizations.

Alongside our organizational practice, the firm maintains a select advisory portfolio for executives, senior professionals, and rising leaders. These engagements are confidential, personalized, and open to leaders of every background.

Executive & Leadership Coaching

Three engagement tiers

For leaders navigating complexity, transition, or the particular weight of being accountable for other people. Coaching is structured, outcome-oriented, and grounded in the same evidence base as our organizational work. Pricing is provided upon inquiry.
