For a business to transform effectively, HR must transform with it—or faster. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eLeadership-Driven HR\u003c\/i\u003e is a breakthrough road map for HR to drive value for the business, guide HR to deliver value through leaders, and ensure that HR is driven to lead. It looks past the critiques of the ways that HR may have functioned in the past and instead looks toward what HR needs to become—forward-thinking leaders who actively shape the future instead of being reactive. HR needs to embrace this new reality rather than attempting to hang on to the way it was in the past. The past is gone. HR needs to shape its own future so that it can be of greater value to the business. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBusinesses need \u003ci\u003eLeadership-Driven HR\u003c\/i\u003e in order to succeed. The challenge to HR is to unleash its own potential to gain insight and discover solutions for how to deliver value for the business. HR also needs to lighten up other work that is of a lower priority. When HR is effective at \u003ci\u003eLeadership-Driven HR\u003c\/i\u003e, it moves from an important internal service to an essential partner of the business that is highly strategic and important to the competitive and comparative success of the enterprise. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHR also must be able to articulate a compelling story of what HR is, how it delivers value to business leaders, and how all HR priorities eventually deliver value to external customers. \u003ci\u003eLeadership-Driven HR\u003c\/i\u003e tells that story to executives, business leaders, and HR professionals so that they will know how to transform HR to deliver value for the business.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jossey-Bass","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989515550949,"sku":"NP9781118362822","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781118362822.jpg?v=1761784418","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/leadership-driven-hr-isbn-9781118362822","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
