Recommendation

Human resources educator and consultant David Forman demolishes every prejudice against HR departments and professionals with data, facts and evidence – but he doesn’t let HR off the hook. According to Forman, HR leaders are failing to keep up with rapid changes in the economy and their impact on organizations. He urges HR executives to earn credibility and make a greater contribution by studying the business and the goals of their parent companies. He tells them it’s time to wake up, learn business basics, embrace data and analytics, and boldly position their departments at the highest levels in organizations. Corporate leaders will find much food for thought that they can apply effectively to their HR departments. getAbstract recommends Forman’s call to action to HR professionals, who will embrace his message, advice and tools.

Take-Aways

  • Human resources departments and professionals suffer poor reputations and low regard.
  • HR professionals should face this criticism, address the facts and move on.
  • HR departments provide value to their organizations, but most have not kept pace with organizational and economic changes.

    This was an interesting read, but I think to focused on old dichotomies that haven't truly existed in many HR depts for awhile now (i.e. it's HR vs the rest of the company). There are many silos in companies' corporate functions and breaking down those walls to invest in tech solutions for better partnering as well as drive the communication between them is more important to keep operations going. I think culture and C-level leadership drive this more than anything
