Description
What difference can an aspiring HR strategist really make to business value? Is HR making the most of its new opportunities to become
a pivotal part of the business? In a world where HR can suffer from a low, administrative profile, Linda Holbeche shows how some HR
strategists have impressed and delivered at the highest level.
Building on surveys undertaken through Personnel Today magazine, and
research via Roffey Park Institute, Holbeche provides a set of tools and case studies that show how HR strategists have utilised their
skills to deliver a variety of key business objectives, often within their current job role. The relationship between an effective people
strategy and business success is hard to quantify in financial terms, but Holbeche provides persuasive examples to add to the growing
body of evidence.
Case studies include Mergers & Acquisitions policies, organizational design, retaining high flyers in an international
environment, and core competency approaches.
Linda Holbeche's previous book on Motivating People in Lean Organizations was shortlisted
for the MCA book prize in 1998.
