A friend of mine recommended that I sit down with Laurie LaBrie as she knows I am a small business owner with some questions and concerns about improving morale and acquiring better relations with my staff. We discussed various aspects about my business, ranging from some concerns I had with the staff members' behavior to recommendations for how to deal with a problematic employee I was hoping to let go. One thing I found to be particularly interesting was that during our discussion, Laurie not only took the concerns of my employees into consideration, but seemed to be very concerned with the health of the business (and making decisions with that being of the utmost priority). As she has a B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance, these matters come second-nature to her. This sets her apart from the majority of HR companies. We brought Laurie in to sit down with our staff. She was able to easily identify where there was a disconnect with certain staff members, and find a way to remedy the problems we had communicating effectively with one another. She was able to express my concerns in a way that was non-threatening to the employees and brought about a great improvements in their behavior. I couldn't believe the way she was able to handle every situation we presented with care, humor, compliance and business sense. I can't recommend Laurie and Integrated HR highly enough! read more

Human Resource issues are often thorny, complex, difficult. Yet it is important for all business owners, no matter what size, to stay on top of them, make sure they are compliant with laws and regulations, and mitigate or eliminate liability. Most small business owners do not have the in-house expertise to handle them. They should look to Integrated Human Resources to outsource that expertise and let the experts handle their HR compliance issues. Laurie and her team are experienced, savvy, well versed in compliance. read more
