Challenges Ahead
• Globalization
• Value Chain for Business Competitiveness & HR services
• Profitability through cost and growth
• Capability Focus
• Change, change, and change some more
• Technology
• Attracting, retaining, & measuring competence & intellectual capital
• Turnaround is not transformation

9. • People go into HR
because they like
people
• HR departments are not
designed to provide
corporate therapy or as
social or health-and-
happiness retreats.
• HR professionals must
create the practices that
make employees more
competitive, not more
comfortable.

10. • Anyone can do HR. • HR activities are based
on theory and research.
• HR professionals must
master both theory and
practice.

11. • HR deals with the soft
side of business and is
therefore not
accountable.
• The impact of HR
practices on business
results can and must be
measured.
• HR professionals must
learn how to translate
their work into financial
performance.

12. • HR focuses on costs,
which must be
controlled
• HR practices must
create value by
increasing the
intellectual capital
within the firm.
• HR professionals must
add value, not reduce
costs.

13. • HR’s job is to be the
policy police and the
health-and-happiness
patrol.
• The HR function does not
own compliance- managers
do.
• HR practices do not exist to
make employees happy but
to help them become more
committed.
• HR professionals must help
managers commit
employees and administer
policies.

14. • HR is full of fads. • HR policies have
evolved over time.

see their current work
as part of an
evolutionary chain and
explain their work with
less jargon and more
authority.

15. • HR is staffed by nice
people.
• At times, HR should
force vigorous debates.
• HR professionals should
be confrontative and
challenging as well as
supportive.

16. • HR is HR’s job. • HR work is as important
to managers as are
finance, strategy, and
other business domains.

join with managers in
championing HR issues.
