LOS ANGELES, July 28, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- The Winter Consulting Group (wintergroup.com), which specializes in human resources and compensation management, has expanded its U.S. presence with the opening of a Los Angeles office. Nadine Winter, the firm's founder and president, will oversee the new office.
"Although we serve companies throughout the nation and our work is not geographic-specific, we determined that both the firm and our clients would benefit from our having a greater West Coast presence," Winter said.
Winter, formerly a partner with Hay Management Consultants, established The Winter Consulting Group in 1989 to bridge the gap between traditional approaches to human resource management and changing workplace realities. It has since become one of North America's premier HR consulting firms, working with companies in a variety of industries, including aerospace, healthcare, financial services, energy, high technology, insurance and publishing, as well as government and nonprofit organizations. Clients have included American Express, Citibank, TD Bank Financial Group, Duke Energy, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center, Manulife Financial, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, Accenture and the Toronto Star.
The Winter Consulting Group specializes in the development of carefully tailored human resources programs that align employee performance with organization purpose. The firm offers a variety of services, including compensation surveys, job evaluation, performance management, and executive and employee compensation programs featuring both cash and equity-based incentives. The firm also utilizes proprietary survey methodologies to help clients identify and address employee attraction, retention and engagement issues.
Winter Consulting Group is particularly noted for its ability to find common ground between employers and employees -- to the benefit of the overall organization.
Nadine Winter, who has more than 15 years' experience in human resources management consulting, is a frequent speaker on topical workplace issues and has appeared widely in print and broadcast media, including major daily newspapers, business magazines and HR and executive compensation trade journals.
