A popular question among many business professionals is, “why aren’t all HR functions already operating strategically?”. History tells us that the human resources function gradually developed over time and began with a focus on controlling tasks and administration. It quickly became a compliance-based profession and some organizations still erroneously refer to it as “personnel administration”. However, the function has evolved significantly in the last two decades having been recognized as a key part of the business value chain.
It is more important than ever for HR pros to understand how it must act as a strategic segment of the business and should serve on the leadership team as a business partner. But what does this mean? How can HR be “strategic”?
View this previously recorded HR Community event to learn best practices and guidelines for becoming a true business partner.
