Chicago, Illinois (PRWEB) August 28, 2007 -- Capital H Group has been ranked 134th on Inc. magazine?s 26th annual listing of the 500 fastest-growing private companies in the United States. Founded almost four years ago, the human capital consulting firm has rapidly expanded to seven offices and nearly 200 employees, growing nearly 1,400 percent in just the last three years.
"We attribute our rapid growth to the quality of our people," said Dan Weinfurter, Chief Executive Officer, who previously led Parson Group to the No. 1 spot on Inc.?s 2000 list. "We?ve been able to attract exceptional talent and that talent has become our competitive advantage."
Capital H Group is building a national consulting firm to help companies create more value, through their workforce, for better business results. Its clients are mid-sized to large companies in all industries, including the not-for-profit sector. Clients include Bank of America, Merrill Lynch Global Commodities, LaSalle Bank Corporation (member of ABN AMRO Group) and International Truck and Engine.
"While strategy and market positioning matter, I believe the most valuable asset of any company is its people," Weinfurter added, "and our focus is to recruit and retain the right people in the right positions."
In 2006, Capital H Group received a $25 million funding commitment from FTVentures, a private equity firm focused on business services and software companies. "FTVentures has helped us aggressively expand our geographic reach to service clients coast-to-coast," said Greg Silich, Capital H Group?s Chief Operating Officer. "Their capital commitment has accelerated our organic growth to date, with more acquisitions slated for the future."
Capital H Group ranks 14th among the 48 companies listed in the "human resources" category on the 2007 list. "We feel we are in good company," said Keith Swenson, Managing Partner. "The rapid rise of our industry reflects the growing realization by CEOs that they cannot achieve their business strategy without attracting, hiring, rewarding, training and retaining the best talent they can possibly find."
