How to build a united, business-led HR Team

Lead your team to move from cost centre to value creators

How do you get your whole HR function working well together, clear about your organisation’s priorities and eager to deliver value?

As organisations become more flexible, responsive and customer-driven, so must HR. However, we’ve got to be honest about why this is hard.  Many HR functions are under-resourced and struggling to take on new demands while coping with problematic tech and disjointed data. These pressures can undermine teamwork, and distance can creep in between the different parts of HR.  This results in under-optimisation of HR’s precious resources.

One HR Team model

In this webinar we explored how to unite all your HR talent into one strong team that’s focused on delivering value. Getting the most from your resources is probably more about relationships than structure.  We show you how to lead and evolve the Ulrich operating model so that you become business-led. Strategic partnering is a critical element, and we explored what that actually means. We will also provided inspiration and practical ideas on how to lead one united HR team to new levels of performance where they will create real business value – and get the credit for that.

 

Our previous webinar – ‘How to Build One HR Team‘ – explains our build on the Ulrich operating model (which he endorses) and sets out how to get the whole team lined up behind your organisation’s priorities and delivering results together. Watch the recording here.
