New practice led by industry veteran Julie Cummings helps organizations turn workforce challenges into business opportunities.
MERIDIAN, Idaho — Sorren, a Top 50 accounting firm, today announced the launch of Human Capital Advisory Services (HCA), a new advisory practice designed to help organizations address increasingly complex workforce challenges that impact business performance, growth, and risk.
Leading the practice is Julie Cummings, MBA, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, who joins Sorren as National Managing Partner of Human Capital Advisory Services. With more than 25 years of experience, Cummings has helped organizations navigate growth, transformation, leadership development, and workforce strategy, partnering with executives to align people strategies with business objectives.
Organizations across industries are facing workforce shortages, leadership transitions, compliance complexity, retention challenges, technology-driven skill gaps, and the workforce demands that accompany growth. While these issues often appear operational, they frequently have broader business implications.
Human Capital Advisory Services was created to help clients address those challenges before they become business obstacles.
“Workforce challenges don’t stay in HR for long—they quickly become business challenges,” said Cummings. “Whether an organization is struggling with talent shortages, leadership development, organizational change, compliance risk, or scaling for growth, the solution requires more than traditional HR support. It requires a strategic advisor who understands how people, operations, and business strategy work together. That’s exactly why HCA was built.”
Unlike traditional HR consulting firms, Sorren’s Human Capital Advisory Services combines strategic human capital expertise with the resources of a national advisory and accounting firm. This integrated approach helps clients address workforce challenges through a broader business lens—connecting people strategy to growth, risk management, operational effectiveness, and long-term business performance.
Human Capital Advisory Services helps clients:
- Build strong HR foundations and reduce organizational risk
- Improve workforce operations and efficiency
- Strengthen talent acquisition, retention, and workforce planning
- Develop leaders and enhance organizational effectiveness
- Navigate growth, transformation, and organizational change
- Align workforce strategy with long-term business objectives
Josh Tyree, CEO of Sorren, said the launch reflects the firm’s continued investment in delivering integrated advisory solutions.
“Our clients aren’t asking for standalone HR consulting—they’re asking for help solving business challenges that happen to involve people,” said Tyree. “Human Capital Advisory Services expands Sorren’s ability to provide the strategic guidance organizations need as they grow, build leadership teams, navigate workforce complexity, and prepare for the future.”
As workforce issues become increasingly intertwined with business strategy, Sorren sees an opportunity to help growing and multi-state organizations address workforce complexity through a more connected advisory model. By combining specialized human capital expertise with the resources of a national professional services firm, Sorren is helping clients build stronger organizations, mitigate risk, and position themselves for long-term success.
