Washington County HR Division Assessment

Jensen Strategies conducted a comprehensive operational and cultural assessment of Washington County’s Human Resources Division.  The assessment was initiated to inform the development of several County initiatives including: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI); Employer of Choice; a recent County-wide reorganization; and the recruitment of a new Chief Human Resource Officer.  The project included information gathered through: 42 County staff interviews; outreach and information collected on comparative data from several other jurisdictions; as well as trends and best practices research in the human resources industry.  Findings and recommendations were developed to inform the County’s future structural and operational decisions related to the Division and broader organization.
