What CEOs want from HR
The Henley Centre for HR Excellence, ledt af Nick Holley, har undersøgt, hvad HR’s key stakeholders, CEO’s forventer af HR både som en funktion og som individer. På baggrund af interviews og en kvantitativ undersøgelse konkluderer rapporten, at du som HR-ansvarlig skal:
- Listen to your CEO about what he or she wants and then challenge them on what they actually need
- Get the basics right before trying to be strategic
- Engage with the business agenda to ensure what you see as strategic is truly strategically relevant
- Focus on upskilling your strategic and commercial skills
- Focus on delivering this more pragmatically, concentrating on ‘fit for purpose’ rather than ‘world class’; you need to make simplicity a watchword for HR or you will alienate not only your CEO but also the whole business
- Take accountability for its delivery even if you don’t have to deliver it
- Have the self-confidence to challenge effectively for what is right
- Finally, do all this with unquestionable integrity
