How Our Story Began…
Driven by a passion for solving HR challenges and an entrepreneurial spirit, Robin Throckmorton founded Strategic Human Resources, inc. in her basement in 1995. Starting her own company was no easy task – especially as a mom of two babies born only 13 months apart. Yet, rarely can you stop a woman on a mission. And unstoppable she was as Robin worked to grow her business helping small and mid-sized organizations to meet their critical needs with exceptional, customized HR support.
As a result of building an outstanding reputation as a trusted partner in developing, strengthening, and managing clients’ HR and recruiting functions, the company’s client base quickly grew. This led to the addition of HR and recruiting experts as employees and contractors working out of their own home offices to help Robin fulfill our mission. Watch and learn more about Strategic HR.
Evolving into strategic HR inc.
Along the journey of growth and innovation, our company name evolved into strategic HR inc.
In 2014, the first strategic HR inc. brick and mortar office opened in Sycamore Township, giving the team a centralized space where we could work together, connect, and collaborate with each other and our clients.
As the company continued to establish itself as a leader in outsourced human resources, a long list of satisfied clients and many awards have followed. Our team continues to be sought after as keynote speakers and HR trainers both locally and across the nation.
Becoming Strategic HR Business Advisors with Clark Schaefer Hackett
In May 2020, we proudly celebrated our 25th year in business. Shortly after reaching this milestone, strategic HR inc. joined Clark Schaefer Hackett to lead their Strategic HR Business Advisory Division.
As we continue to grow and evolve, we remember the place (or basement) where we began. Our roots have allowed us to use our own experiences of being a rising small business as we provide outsourced HR support to our clients, helping them to prosper and grow – and we wouldn’t have it any other way!
