Highly recommend Penny! She helped me so much in reviewing a severance agreement when I was RIF'ed. She gave great perspective on my rights and leverage, as well as negotiation strategies. She obviously has great experience and skills!

We are so incredibly lucky Penny was recommended to us. We run a developmental therapy center and our staff has grown significantly over the last few years, leading us to need more support in the realm of HR. We were definitely struggling but then Penny stepped in! It feels like she knows our business inside and out and always has an answer for everything. We have called her with many a concern and every time we get off the phone we feel supported, acknowledged, and confident in our next steps. We appreciate her patience and guidance more than we can say. We highly recommend Total Circle HR to anyone with HR needs - you will not be disappointed!

Penny at Total Circle HR is truly exceptional!

I recently encountered a dilemma concerning sensitive HR matters and sought clarity on legal obligations. Without hesitation, I turned to Penny. Within just 15 minutes, she not only outlined the legal framework but also imparted invaluable advice on navigating the situation with empathy.

Penny's expertise is unparalleled; her insights surpass any attempt to sift through information independently. Her seasoned proficiency in the field shines brightly through her counsel and delivery.

Penny has solidified her place as my ultimate HR resource, and I will undoubtedly rely on her for all future inquiries.

I cannot say enough about Total Circle, HR. I had the pleasure of working with Penny and her team over the course of the last few months. Our organization needed a restructure and we need an outside consultant and external perspective to get us over the finish line.

Penny helped us not only restructure, improve our internal processes, determine our core values and strengthen our leadership skills. It truly was a Total Circle HR approach.

Penny provides the expertise, skill, and positive energy to help a stressful situation run smoothly. She is patient, asks clarifying questions, and quickly analyzes the team dynamics and overall culture. She was a gem during our organization’s transition.

I highly recommend Total Cicrle HR for all of your needs. I would contract them again in a heartbeat.

We were very happy with our experience with Total Circle HR. Our firm was put in a very awkward and delicate situation based upon circumstances beyond our control. Penny helped us walk through the issues with clarity and expediency, explained the potential pitfalls of taking certain positions and stayed on a call while we dealt with the situation at hand. She greatly exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend her for any and all outsourced HR needs.

Penny was a godsend at a time when I needed expert advice for a tricky issue. She took the time to really listen to what I had to say and didn't give an immediate answer - which I appreciated. She took a moment and thought about what the best strategy for me would be and we arrived at a solution that I was very pleased with. She took her time with me, did not rush me out of our session, and was more than happy to answer my numerous questions. I would not hesitate to use her services again. Every small business needs Penny in their corner!
