Practical advice on developing strategic HR measures

HR Directors are under unprecedented pressure to demonstrate the value of HR to the business. Senior managers, along with other stakeholders inside and outside the organization, are looking for hard evidence of HR’s contribution to business development and performance.

The new HR measurement agenda is being driven by a number of groups:

• Senior managers looking for a demonstration of HR's bottom line contribution.
• Government and regulatory bodies calling for companies to report on human capital and people performance issues
• Investors, analysts, partners and other stakeholders who want greater understanding of HR’s impact on the business.

Not least, those HR Directors who want to be accepted as equal partners by the business and know how vital it is to demonstrate incontrovertibly that HR is essential to the achievement of business goals.

For all these reasons, there is a new strategic HR measurement agenda in the making.

World-Class HR: the new measurement agenda combines the experience of innovative companies with emerging best-practice principles to show you how to build indicators and measurement programme that supports the development of a world-class HR capability.
