Our Work
At Berger HR Solutions, we know that every organization has its own unique challenges, goals, and people. While no two client engagements are exactly the same, the examples below reflect the work we do every day—based on real experiences, measurable results, and the lasting impact we’ve had across different organizations.
These case studies offer a glimpse into how we partner with clients to build stronger teams, navigate complex HR challenges, and create workplaces where people and businesses thrive. They highlight the kinds of work we do every day—grounded in real experiences, measurable results, and the lasting impact we’ve had across diverse organizations and industries.
Curious how we can support your team? Let’s talk.
Case Study 1:
Start-up
Client
Within three months, the client had a fully operational HR foundation and were ready to scale confidently
The Client
A fast-growing tech start-up with fewer than 10 employees, preparing for rapid scaling and its first round of venture capital funding.
Why They Came to Us
The founders were focused on product development and fundraising but lacked the internal resources to build a compliant and scalable HR infrastructure. They needed support with hiring processes, employee documentation, and foundational policies.
Our Approach
We began with a comprehensive HR Assessment to identify gaps and risks. The Berger HR team developed a Roadmap to prioritize the next steps. From there, we developed a tailored onboarding process, created an employee handbook, and implemented essential policies covering PTO, remote work, and performance management. We also advised on compliant hiring practices and helped them select an HRIS platform that could grow with their team.
The Outcome
Within three months, the client had a fully operational HR foundation and was ready to scale confidently—with the systems, structure, and support to back their next stage of growth. Our work allowed them to more than double in size in just over a year.
Case Study 2:
HR Advisory Client
Our consistent, strategic support helped reduce turnover, improve employee engagement, and ensure compliance
The Client
A non-profit organization seeking ongoing HR support without the cost of a full-time HR department.
Why They Came to Us
Following the pandemic, the organization was struggling to keep up with their evolving HR needs—particularly in compliance, employee relations, and performance management. They needed a trusted partner to provide both strategic guidance and day-to-day support.
Our Approach
Through our monthly HR advisory retainer, we became an extension of their leadership team. We provided proactive compliance updates, handled employee relations issues, supported performance review cycles, adjusted the culture to accommodate remote work and led quarterly strategy sessions to align HR efforts with the organization’s mission.
The Outcome
Our consistent, strategic support helped reduce turnover, improve employee engagement, and ensure compliance —all without the added expense of a full-time HR professional resulting in more funding being available to support the cause.
Case Study 3:
HR Project Support
With our support, the HR function became more strategic and proactive, managers gained key leadership skills, and employees felt heard and supported
The Client
A national professional services firm with a small internal Operations/HR team, seeking support with key projects outside their daily responsibilities.
Why They Came to Us
While the internal HR team managed daily operations well, the organization needed outside support for larger strategic projects, including employee engagement initiatives, leadership development, and policy updates as the team spanned multiple states.
Our Approach
We partnered closely with the internal Operations/HR lead to identify project priorities. We facilitated an organization-wide employee engagement survey and guided the action planning process. We also delivered custom manager training and modernized key HR policies to reflect both compliance and culture.
The Outcome
With our support, the HR function became more strategic and proactive, managers gained key leadership skills, and employees felt heard and supported—leading to stronger morale and alignment across the organization.
