      The international best seller Human Resource Champions helped set the HR agenda for the 1990s and enabled HR professionals to become strategic partners in their organizations. But earning a seat at the executive table was only the beginning. Today's HR leaders must also bring substantial value to that table. Drawing on their 16-year study of over 29,000 HR professionals and line managers, leading HR experts Dave Ulrich and Wayne Brockbank propose The HR Value Proposition. The authors argue that HR value creation requires a deep understanding of external business realities and how key stakeholders both inside and outside the company define value. Ulrich and Brockbank provide practical tools and worksheets for leveraging this knowledge to create HR practices, build organizational capabilities, design HR strategy, and marshal resources that create value for customers, investors, executives, and employees. Written by the field's premier trailblazers, this book charts the path HR professionals must take to help lead their organizations into the future. Ulrich is a professor at the University of Michigan School of Business and the author of 12 books and more than 100 articles on the subject of human resources.

      Leaders know that as markets and strategies change, organizations must evolve. The traditional hierarchical organization has long been under fire, resulting in numerous new organizational experiments. Leaders need a synthesis of what we know about these emerging models, along with an integrated perspective that can guide practice. What is the new organization, and how does it work? Arthur Yeung and Dave Ulrich provide that much-needed synthesis and offer leaders a practical, integrated framework for reinventing the organization. They explain how to build a new kind of organization (a "market-oriented ecosystem") that responds to changing market opportunities with speed and scale. While other books address individual pieces of the puzzle, Reinventing the Organization looks at all the decisions leaders need to make--choosing the right strategies, capabilities, structure, culture, management tools, and leadership to deliver radically greater value in fast-moving markets.-- Provided by publisher

    • Podtitul: Šest kompetencí pro HR budoucnosti Může řízení lidských zdrojů napomáhat samotnému „podnikání firmy“? Ano, může a musí. A právě způsoby, jak toho může dosáhnout, jsou náplní této knihy. Překlad „bible“ HR business partneringu „HR From the Outside In“ je plný rad a doporučení směrujících pracovníky řízení lidských zdrojů tak, aby dokázali každému v organizaci přinášet hodnotu nového druhu. Na základě poznatků studie „Human Resource Competency“ Study (HRCS) vás kniha naučí šesti klíčovým dovednostem řízení lidských zdrojů, od umění být strategickým pozicionérem až po roli inovátora a integrátora HR. Dále zjistíte, jak rozvíjet pracovníky HR tak, aby fungovali jako vysoce výkonní a plnohodnotní business partneři, jak nastavit strukturu oddělení řízení lidských zdrojů, aby přinášelo maximální hodnotu, nebo co je třeba pro udržení konkurenceschopnosti a aktuálnosti v neustále se rozšiřujícím světě pracovníků HR. Pokud jsou vynikající pracovníci HR přizváni, aby se ještě více zapojili do všeobecného fungování společnosti, dokážou přispívat skutečnou, finančně vyjádřitelnou hodnotou k jejímu vyššímu hospodářskému výsledku. Jen málo firem si proto může dovolit luxus nepoložit si následující otázku: „Využíváme plnohodnotně veškeré nadání, kterým v oblasti řízení lidských zdrojů disponujeme?“
