Growing demand for organizational change management solutions
Companies are looking to align their workforce and focus on retention, leading to a surge in the demand for HR services to help reorganize workplace structures. For instance, Piedmont Healthcare, a Georgia-based healthcare system collaborated with Willis Towers Watson in 2015 to develop proper job descriptions. This collaboration benefited Piedmont greatly. It also helped them develop applications for talent and performance management.
Need for expert solutions to design compensation programs
Companies increasingly rely on the expertise of consultants to design programs to address the challenges faced during designing executive compensation programs.

Growth of contingent workforce segment
Companies such as Uber and Airbnb employ a contingent workforce to achieve cost savings. This has resulted in the increased demand for HR consulting services to manage this contingent workforce.
