From HR to Human Capital Management
Effective human capital management is the most vital determinant of market success, and in many organizations, human resources professionals are being offered the opportunity to lead the way. But human capital is not an extension of the traditional HR function, nor an administrative process. It is a new business science based on a paradigm shift from cost to asset-based talent management, and requires an entirely new mindset and skills.
Building HR Business Partners
Increasingly, administrative HR is being outsourced and taken offshore, because one company's 401k plan is no more strategically important than another's. As a result, HR professionals with purely administrative and soft skills are increasingly at risk. As the human capital paradigm gains traction, great organizations cannot afford to delegate talent acquisition and development to administratively-skilled HR departments. Acquiring the best and brightest people and unleashing their creativity are not "by the book" processes. They rely on risk-based decisions that require mature business judgement, sound financial skills and decisive action.
Crisis or Opportunity?
This sea change presents a crisis for many HR practitioners, and a welcome opportunity for others. HR professionals have an opportunity to move front and center to the strategic table and contribute on the front lines. But to do so requires entirely new competencies that are not being addressed by traditional education or HR organizations, becuse they simply do not understand them yet. The Human Capital Institute is the only organization that is focused entirely on the knowledge-era skills required to build the talent-driven market leaders of the future.
