Despite vetting by human resources (HR), organizations and brands often face significant fallout due to the actions of individual personnel. In today’s hyper-connected world, a single misstep can ignite social media outrage, spark viral stories, and dominate news cycles. What may begin as one person’s lapse in judgment can quickly escalate, tarnishing the reputation of an entire organization.
When billions in revenue, careers, and livelihoods are on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher. At Reveille Advisors, we understand these challenges and offer tailored HR consulting services to mitigate risks before they become crises.
Modern leaders often exist in the public eye, engaging through social media accounts, branded content, speeches, and other media appearances. This heightened visibility makes it crucial for HR and executive hiring committees to conduct comprehensive background evaluations during the hiring process.
A $19.99 online background check or a quick LinkedIn reference won’t uncover hidden risks in prospective leaders. Reveille Advisors’ screening process identifies potential vulnerabilities that could pose significant challenges to your organization.
Our approach leverages open-source intelligence (OSINT) to examine the full scope of publicly accessible internet data and records. This includes deep dives into social media for inflammatory statements, controversial connections, or behaviors that could lead to reputational harm. Additionally, we assess known interests for potential conflicts, audit primary associates, and, where possible, scrutinize investments and assets to identify any red flags.
By providing actionable insights, Reveille Advisors equips HR teams with the tools to make informed, strategic decisions when selecting leaders to represent their organizations.
Including personnel screenings and character vetting in your organization’s HR processes can have lasting effects by reducing your exposure to risk in the future. Similar to our executive searches, we research traditional personnel and new hires.
This includes background reviews (Fair Credit Reporting Act-compliant options are available), social media sweeps, and verification of past employment, salary, education, location history, and more. The intent is to identify those who are too risky or have had poor behavior in the past, which could negatively affect your organization.
In the staffing industry, “temp napping” poses a significant threat to business operations and profitability. This term refers to the practice where a client bypasses their agreement with a staffing agency to directly hire temporary workers supplied by that agency.
Not only is this a breach of contract for both the client and the employee, but it also results in a double blow to staffing agencies. They lose the client’s account and the revenue tied to the service agreement, while also losing access to valuable temporary workers as a resource.
Reveille Advisors has a proven track record of helping staffing agencies combat this growing issue with our HR consulting services. Our team specializes in gathering evidence to support litigation against former clients who engage in temp napping.
Some leaders will see a competitor or familiar brand experience hostile ridicule and develop concerns for their own vitality. That’s for good reason, too, as there can be a depth of separation in large organizations. Members of different departments or management roles are disconnected and may not even know who really works for them.
Like competitor and opposition research, we audit your organization and personnel’s visibility and vulnerabilities. The good news is that you’re in control of that information and not your adversaries. This gives you the time and tact to address issues internally while avoiding embarrassing or challenging public inquiries.
We want you to make informed hiring decisions that reduce the risk of potential hardships for your organization. Nothing is guaranteed in life, but one can insulate oneself from those who wish to mislead during the hiring process, carry too much baggage to be the face of your brand, or have behaved internally with misconduct. Let Reveille Advisors help you during this process with our HR consulting and support services!
We offer 30-minute consultations for you to share your challenges and we’ll determine what solutions are available. As always, discretion is provided and secure communication options are available. We’ll speak with you soon!
