Who We Are
McDougal Consulting is a transformative, innovative, and modern human resource consultancy driven by our dedication to serve people well. Our people-centric focus is achieved through the various personal and organizational support services we provide. These are primarily aimed at individuals and organizations who hope to achieve their highest standards and ultimate vision.
Every individual and organization is indeed unique, and as such our business seeks to remove the mundane, time-consuming, and complex process of dealing with human resource related issues, replacing them with more efficient, responsive, and strategic HRM.
We know business and we know human resources management. We also know that your business needs to maintain accurate records, meet industrial standards, adhere to labour and employment laws, as well as to effectively communicate to your key stakeholders. We recognize that these stakeholders, your employees, your management team, your board of directors, your investors, and strategic partners will all benefit from a nimble and progressive organization built on sound HR strategy. We focus not only on industry-leading practices related to employee recruitment but also on sustainability strategies such as employee retention, talent acquisition and management, and human capital investment and development.
We also believe that the heart of every organization is its people and are therefore dedicated to and find great satisfaction in helping individuals realize their potential and find roles that give them enjoyment and fulfillment. Many are often indecisive as to what is the next best step in their career, how to develop personally and professionally, and what skills they need to overcome existing challenges and prepare for future ones. We understand these obstacles and have built significant experiences in providing individuals with clarity and confidence on their career path and equipping them for the crucial steps in career seeking.
