"Focusing On People, Processes and Systems"
HR RESULTS, LLC was started in 2006 to address the human resources challenges and
issues of companies under 100 employees and to assist individuals "in transition."
As the founder and Principal of HR RESULTS, LLC, Al Lichtenstein is a former senior human
resources executive who has worked for companies in the professional services and life
sciences industries as a contributing member of their senior management teams. Being a
hands-on head of HR, Al is used to recommending strategic HR initiatives and then
"rolling up his sleeves" and implementing them. The Human Resources departments under his
leadership supported organizational growth and development by being customer focused and
highly responsive.
He has extensive experience addressing strategic organizational HR issues, designing and
implementing results-based performance management processes, and aligning them with
organizational reward and recognition systems. He developed programs for his company's
talent acquisition processes, implemented and facilitated management development training
programs, and directed cross-functional teams in the creation of career ladders and career
development programs.
As a former client of an outplacement firm, Al is an active career coach and is instrumental in
helping others explore and better define their professional competencies. He clearly identifies career objectives and guides his clients in developing, executing and managing a successful job search campaign.
