The sole purpose of HR must be on affecting the business. Just like every other department that gets paid to bring solutions to business challenges, HR must move away from being a “people advocate.” To be clear, I am not advocating that we move back to the ways of the sweatshop. However, it is imperative that HR better understand how the people of the business help the business succeed, not the other way around.

Successful HR can be boiled down to developing an HR strategic plan that supports the company’s strategic plan and boosts the organizational culture. Based on that HR strategic plan, develop your plans for learning and development, compensation and benefits, performance management, and work-life fit. Getting those items right will lead to the attraction of quality talent and the retention and motivation of the talent we already have. This, in turn, leads to engaged, productive employees who will drive business results.

We are going to break the mold and rebuild it! This seminar, based on Ed’s book, is for any executive who recognizes that business can only succeed through its people and is looking for the roadmap to get there. We’ll explore the key activities we must do as executives to ensure we are managing our human resources functions effectively and that they are delivering the business results we require.
