Overview: Faced with increased competition, advances in technology and a relentless focus on innovation, senior business executives and Human Resources (HR) leaders agree that people are vital to all aspects of their company's performance. "Aligned at the Top," a new survey report shows that the strategic people agenda is not being addressed by HR - presenting a common challenge to HR leaders and senior business executives alike.
When senior business executives talk about HR, they focus on administrative activities, such as rewards and benefits, performance evaluations, and HR operating efficiency. When those same executives talk about people issues, they focus on talent management, workforce productivity, and leadership development, and in many cases the HR function isn't even mentioned.
This survey report presents some interesting and important results and conclusions. It should foster a healthy discussion on how HR leaders and senior business executives can develop new approaches and a new collaboration to tackle their strategic people challenges.
