Evolve Your HR Function & how you lead it

Running HR and talent management can be a lonely place. This mentorship-style service (sometimes called "consigliere") provides you with a safe space to feel heard, to vent, to ideate, to pressure test decisions – all with someone who’s been in your shoes and gets where you are coming from. Angela will partner with you to advise on solutions (the what) and importantly on the approach (the how) so you’ll feel equipped, prepared, supported.

Additionally, she can help guide the development of your HR/People team strategic plan as well as your team's HR transformation. Based on your organizational needs and team capabilities (current or aspirational), she can redesign your HR operating model and team roles, to maximize your HR team’s efficiency, contributions, strategic approach, aimed towards delivering increased business value and impact. Your team will appreciate that she can speak their language and truly understands the HR function as an insider.

More About Talent Centric Designs and Angela Heyroth

TALENT CENTRIC DESIGNS, a registered trade name of TLD Solutions LLC, is an HR consulting and advisory firm that helps organizations rethink how talent, culture, and employee experience connect to real business performance. Founded by Angela Heyroth, the firm partners with HR leaders and business executives who believe that treating people well should not be a tradeoff against results, but a powerful driver of them. With more than 25 years of experience across recruiting, talent management, learning and development, organizational design, and HR leadership, Angela brings both strategic perspective and practical, hands-on expertise. Her work focuses on growing businesses and mission-driven teams navigating complexity, change, and growth. Talent Centric Designs focuses on helping organizations move beyond well-intended but ineffective programs to build talent systems that actually work in real workplaces. This includes employee experience consulting and strategy, improving employee engagement and retention, organizational design, and designing talent strategy and HR strategy that align with organizational goals. The work is grounded in the belief that people have inherent worth — not because they are “resources,” but because they are human — and that organizations perform better when this belief is reflected in how work is designed. Services include HR consulting and advisory services, talent and employee experience strategy, organizational effectiveness and organizational design, manager workshops and facilitation, and speaking/keynote engagements. Angela also serves as an adjunct faculty member in a graduate HR program and regularly contributes insights on culture, employee experience, and talent management through publications, podcasts, and industry forums.

TL/DR: Angela Heyroth partners with organizations to create environments where people can do their best work, and where performance, engagement, and culture reinforce one another instead of competing.
