Kennebunkport, ME - A human resources consultant who literally wrote the book on how to manage employees effectively is celebrating the 15th anniversary of his firm, Dacri & Associates, this summer.

“During my 25 years in human resources – including the last 15 as owner of a consulting firm – I have seen a huge change in the laws that govern employees and in the expectations of both supervisors and workers,” Rick Dacri said. “Fortunately, there also has been enormous growth in the sophistication of HR techniques available to employers looking to get the most out of their human capital.”

With the economy still unsettled, employers should be particularly aware of the dangers posed by wrongful discharge claims to ensure they have effective and sustainable HR processes in place, said Dacri, who recently published his book on how to effectively oversee employees, “Uncomplicating Management.” Proactive HR policies are the best way to avoid lawsuits and other problems, he said.

Recognized within the profession as an expert in Human Resources theory and practice, Dacri regularly speaks to national and regional organizations about workforce and human resources issues. He has authored more than 100 professional articles and served as president of HR associations in Maine and Massachusetts.

Dacri & Associates offers senior executives the human-relations expertise and hands-on skill they need to improve employee productivity and engagement, mitigate risk and position their organizations for success. More information is available at www.dacri.com, rick@dacri.com or 1-800-892-9828.
