Small and mid-sized organizations are the lifeblood of the American economy, creating two-thirds of new jobs and driving innovation and competitiveness.

California, as the largest economy in the nation and, by itself, is the 6^th largest economy in the world. There 3.6 million small to mid-sized organizations in the state, which encompass 99.8% of all businesses here.

In fact, 50% of California businesses have fewer than 500 employees. Yet many are overlooked when it comes to HR companies providing a broad range of human resources practices.

The Pendolino Group was founded with a commitment to bring professional HR services to these underserved organizations.

A human resources strategy is integral to organizational success

During her corporate career, Dianna Wilusz realized that small and medium sized businesses and nonprofits need – perhaps even more so – access to the deeply experienced professional talent that many larger companies can easily afford. She started the Pendolino Group, as a business person, herself, who also has a depth of experience in Human Resources.

Small to mid-sized organizations often don’t have the funds to hire an HR person full-time or they don’t really need to hire a full-time HR specialist. The Pendolino Group is designed to bring experienced professionals together with small companies, local governments, and nonprofit organizations to fulfill that need.

Human resources drive business results

The Pendolino group helps clients achieve meaningful results in business operations, as well as in human resources. We provide strategic planning and business process design, using a visual, graphic methodology that fully engages the entire team in the organization’s vision, strategy, and game plan for achievement.

As HR professional, our job is to make sure our clients get just the right type, and the right amount of HR to scale up their businesses. We provide access to a full-service HR team and, as our client’s business grows, we help them to develop self-sufficiency within their organization, as they grow their own HR team.

Our ideal clients are also committed to continuing to learn, grow, and evolve. Our clients often comment that they feel like we are one of them. That may be because we’ve been down similar paths.

Several of the consultants at the Pendolino Group are business owners by their own right, who know and have dealt with many of the challenges that face business owners and entrepreneurs.

At the Pendolino Group, we are an HR consulting firm fueled by the desire to do business differently. If you’d like to learn more about us and how we can support you, please take a look at our FAQ’s, and contact us to talk about what your specific HR challenges and needs.
