About the Book

A fresh perspective on the HR function, High Performance HR challenges the traditional view of HR as a service function and replaces it with a new vision of HR as an internal business accountable for the return on investment of essential corporate assets--people and organizational processes. High Performance HR not only challenges HR's traditional role, but also provides practical strategies for leveraging HR's role, priorities, accountabilities, and organizational design. It positions the human resources function as a key business partner in helping any organization achieve its strategic goals. HR has an important role in aligning itself and all organizational functions to deliver value to the external customer and to ensure competitive advantage for the organization. HR's focus should be on how to help people internally to deliver value externally. High Performance HR also focuses on what not to do--how and why HR should abandon specific types of work for a better fit with the company's strategic goals. The focus is on abandoning work appropriately, focusing on alignment with corporate strategic objectives and on work that truly adds value. High Performance HR provides a roadmap for executives and HR leaders attempting to leverage the HR function for competitive advantage:

  • Describes how the HR function should be positioned for the future--as a strategic business partner, not simply as a service function.
  • Provides a practical roadmap to align HR with the rest of the company in a common strategic direction, in order to deliver value to the external customer.
  • Features questions and checklists that help assess the readiness of your company's HR function to be a highperformance department.
  • Explains how HR can organize and streamline its "traditional" work, as well as how it can help to transform the entire company through strategic business processes such as cultivating a flexible culture, championing strategic alignment, implementing change and transition, and insuring return on investment in human capital.
  • Defines clearly the expectations executives can and should have of their human resources leaders, an area that senior management often struggles with in assessing what the value should be from their HR function.
  • Proposes an innovative organizational design that aligns HR with other internal service businesses in the organization, to help the company succeed.
  • Gives HR professionals the concepts and practical strategies to revitalize their function and to deliver value to the company.
