What Past Clients Say

Verbatim excerpts from PPQs submitted by HR Directors, Deputy Directors, and General Counsel on prior HSG engagements. References available on request.

U.S. Department of State — U.S. Embassy Pretoria, South Africa · 2008–2010 and ongoing

Standing Key-Personnel Reference — Gilda Weech-House (Senior HR Officer)

Engagement value: Multi-post Foreign Service HR program · Gilda Weech-House served as Senior HR Officer under Ms. Haskell's supervision; HSG Key Personnel on RFP 902714.

5/5 overall
I loved working with Gilda Weech-House — 2 years as her direct supervisor and many years seeking her advice on thorny HR issues. She is knowledgeable, helpful, and available. She always knows what needs to be done and gets it done. She presents the case for the 'right thing to do' while remaining within rules and regulations. Her broad international experience — where she had to be deeply familiar with local labor laws, various compensation plans, and a wide variety of positions — sets her apart from most HR professionals. She handles stakeholder communication with compassionate directness. Gilda is amazing at building relationships with the people necessary to make positive changes in the many embassies where she worked, often with workforces over 2,000 local staff and 1,000 U.S. hires. She is the most exceptional HR person I have worked with. Gilda is the best HR professional I worked with in my 30+ year career.
