Recommendation

As the title suggests, teams trump individuals. After analyzing more than 32,000 survey responses worldwide, authors Dave Ulrich, David Kryscynski, Wayne Brockbank and Mike Ulrich present evidence that while great HR professionals matter, they quadruple their impact when they organize into effective HR departments.

    Muszą też czuć że mamy kompetencje do podejmowania decyzji. Kompetentny hr musi rozumieć pozycję dyrektorów.
