That said, more than 8 in 10 HR leaders report critical misalignment between their department and the broader business, creating $8.9 trillion in economic losses yearly. And that leads to much more than just organizational efficiency, contributing to 8 in 10 workers looking for other jobs.

Is HR Really Strategic? Or is it Something Else? 🤔 According to recent Gartner research, only 28% of HR professionals agree that HR strategy is aligned with business strategy. This statistic raises a crucial question: Why isn't HR more strategic? And more importantly who's to blame? The easy answer might be to point fingers at HR leaders or the HR function itself. But the truth is far more complex. 🔑 Leaders and Executives: Does your leadership team prioritize HR as a strategic partner, or is HR still seen as a "support function" that focuses mainly on admin tasks? Strategic alignment starts at the top - HR needs executive buy-in to drive meaningful change. 🛠 HR Leaders: Are HR professionals equipped with the right skills, tools, and data to link HR decisions to overall business goals? HR needs to embrace a more data-driven, agile approach to truly add strategic value. 💡 Business Functions: Is there a clear and open dialogue between HR and other business units? Strategy alignment only happens when there’s mutual understanding, collaboration, and a shared vision across the entire organization. The reality is that HR's strategic role is still evolving. To bridge the gap, we need more collaboration, better tools, and a shift in mindset from both HR and the broader leadership team. Are you ready to make HR a true business partner? Or are you still stuck in the traditional "support role" mindset? #HRStrategy #BusinessAlignment #Leadership #HRTransformation #TalentManagement #FutureOfWork #StrategicHR #HRtalkbyJasminaRidzi

Any organization's backbone is its human resource team. #hr professionals face a number of challenges. To deal with these challenges, a wide range of skills, knowledge, and concepts are needed #HR is all about understanding the difficulties that a business faces and charting effective solutions with the assistance of a diverse workforce. Managing #humanresources differs from managing physical resources, such as a building or machine, in that physical resources have limitations and can be easily replaced, whereas humans are finite and cannot be easily replaced in most cases. While exceptional #HRleaders do a lot of things, they are also known for NEVER doing some things, which make them great. 🙅♂️NEVER operates in silo 🙅♂️NEVER ignores organizational brand image 🙅♂️NEVER neglects the importance of technology 🙅♂️NEVER ignores the relevance of changing trends 🙅♂️NEVER prioritizes the immediate over the strategic 🙅♂️NEVER complains when offered "a seat at the table" to engage in strategy 🙅♂️NEVER neglects the importance of people regardless of any business motivation 🙅♂️NEVER thinks of monetary compensation as the only key factor for employee engagement HR leaders often tackle the toughest challenges with empathy, kindness and diligence, yet their role can sometimes cast them as the 'bad guy' in tough situations. One of the most positive themes for HR leaders is to focus on their willingness to “walk the talk,” to be role models and to honor commitments and promises. HR leaders are frequently put into the position of ensuring that others in the organization do the right thing and follow established procedures. For those in the HR function, this competency holds great importance. Remember, the difficult tasks you've managed this week are crucial to your organization's success. Forget the naysayers, #hrprofessionals you truly are making a difference!

When it comes to smaller companies, C-suite executives often find themselves stepping into HR roles. This seems like a effective, cost-saving move at first glance—after all, who better to manage HR than your trusted leadership team? But here’s the reality: every moment your executives spend on HR tasks is time they’re not spending on driving strategy and innovation. What’s the real cost of “saving money”? Having a C-suite handle #HR may seem efficient, but consider these factors: ⏳ Time: Every hour spent on HR is an hour not spent on critical business strategy. 🧠 Expertise: Executives are skilled in leading the business, not in managing the complexities of #employmentlaw or #employeerelations. 💡 Employee Satisfaction: HR requires neutrality. When #leadership takes on HR responsibilities, it can create conflicts of interest that undermine trust and morale. Relying on your executives for HR can lead to missed opportunities, slower decision-making, and even compliance risks. So, is your leadership team spread too thin? Are they reacting to #HRchallenges instead of proactively growing the business? Don’t let the hidden costs of distracted leadership and #HRmismanagement hold you back. #HumanityInHR #Leadership #StrategicHR #BusinessGrowth #CLevelInsights #HRManagement #HRCommunity #HR #HRConsulting #SmallBusinessHR #HumanResource
