Description - HR Leadership by Linda Holbeche
One of the greatest challenges for anyone wanting to become an HR leader is that most HR functions are now organised along some variation on Ulrich's three-legged-stool model of Business Partners, Shared Services and Centres of Excellence. Many HR professionals are finding difficulty navigating the 3 legs to gain the skills they need to move up the ladder. HR Leadership draws on the personal experiences of talented HR professionals at different levels who demonstrate a set of capabilities not commonly demonstrated in HR and are making a difference to their organisation in a variety of sectors. The book considers their career routes and how they developed their skills to give practical advice on how developing HR professionals can get exposure to the kinds of experiences which will help them become HR leaders. Talent and culture are not only themes for HR development, they are also key areas of competitive advantage in business. HR Leadership also discusses the role of the HR leader as a driving force in building competitive advantage and creating value.
