Human resources management should be considered as a part of business strategy. HR should aid the operation and line managers for better utilization of people, processes, and systems.
The world of work is changing at breakneck speed, and this book is your roadmap to navigating the new terrain. The author delves into the rise of artificial intelligence, the importance of organizational agility, and the need for a workforce fueled by resilience, sustainability, and inclusivity.
Employers believe HR to be like "achar," (pickle) preserved but not exactly thriving. They don’t understand that there is something beyond administrative work in management. They don’t believe in strategic planning either; While many HR managers struggle to gain the credibility needed to establish strategic roles within their companies, the author has successfully implemented strategic HR initiatives across diverse commercial enterprises through his travels. It was mainly because of his networking, honesty, and forthrightness.
The cases exemplify the importance of strategic workforce planning, HR foresight, and collaboration with line managers. By leveraging HR expertise and acting proactively, we can address future challenges effectively, minimize risks, and ultimately contribute to the organization’s success.
