Recording: How to build HR’s strategic influence in today’s landscape

For CHROs who want to elevate their HR function

How does a CHRO get the function to where they want it to be? First, you have to win the mandate.

Your first strategic step is to get the attention of top leaders. This means transforming your relationship with the business and becoming, as the CHRO, completely sewn into business priorities.

In this one-hour webinar 4xCHRO Asad Husain and Deborah Wilkes explored how to create a platform from which HR can lead and influence, win the mandate to elevate the function, and get that on track.
