An Investment in Peace of Mind
Ensuring you get the most out of your staffing investment is a specialty of The Lindquist Group. Whether you’re new to home staffing or simply need to reassess your current arrangements, we offer consulting and training to help you establish and sustain a harmonious and well-ordered home.
Here are the three main components:
Global needs assessment. Assessing the needs, priorities, and schedule of care for all the people, pets, places and things that comprise your household and family agenda is difficult to do alone. We apply our years of experience and multidisciplinary expertise to help you pinpoint what’s most important. Through onsite visits and personal interviews, we determine the right steps for sustaining your home and your preferred lifestyle with efficiency and excellence.
Baseline staffing recommendations. Based on how you live, entertain and travel, we determine the appropriate level of staffing—and the personalities and skill sets that will serve you best. After discussing the minimum staffing requirements and roles needed for optimal results, we help define your expectations in writing, a vital step to training and retaining the right people.
As many clients discover, we often recommend fewer staff than are currently employed in the home. Sometimes changing a single key staff position or clarifying current staff roles can have profound results.
Detailed road map for success. Finally, we develop a comprehensive home manual that inventories everything from pet and family members’ prescriptions and dietary preferences to all the art objects and finishes in the home, with detailed instructions and schedules for their care. In this essential guidebook we present your written expectations with regard to staff roles and accountability. As your passport to peace of mind, it ensures your home is cared for without constant intervention or instruction on your part. And should your needs or priorities change, it can help you more easily integrate new staff or responsibilities within the global plan.
Wherever you are in your hiring or management process, The Lindquist Group can help. Initial consultation and training can help you get it right the first time—or indeed repair what might be broken in your staff relations and household maintenance.
