HR is at a turning point. For a decade now it has been undergoing a process of transformation. But for many, it has been a process that has increasingly failed to produce the results expected of it. During these times of rapidly changing economics, we believe HR is faced with a stark choice. It can either evolve and make a significant contribution, or be diminished and dispersed into the business.
Our new report, 'Shaping up: Evolving the HR function for the 21st century', takes a new look at HR Transformation and the journey that HR has taken up to the present day. We believe that the modern day HR Director is presented with a real opportunity to transform into a CHRO, in the same way that the Finance Director became the CFO and the IT Director the CIO. In today’s market environment, HR should be at the heart of helping the business navigate through organisational change, driving improved productivity and performance whilst retaining talent, and contributing to board-level strategic discussions by demonstrating more business and financial acumen.
