As organizations operate across countries and continents there is
an increasing demand for the development of an HR function designed
to deliver global support. This requires rethinking the structure
of HR, how it is managed and how it operates. However, adopting a
fully global model is not the right answer for all organizations.
HR has a key role in determining the business strategy in terms of
the required scale of operations (i.e. local/regional/global), and
in delivering the business transformation required to realize that
strategy once it has been agreed. As a result, HR must be both able
and prepared to transform itself to support the new business model.
Going Global outlines of the types of activity and capability
needed to establish an HR function able to supporting business
operations at a regional or global level. It focuses on two areas,
the decision to go global and the activities needed to deliver a
global HR function. This latter section targets three areas:
designing the right service; building a cohesive team; and
delivering HR talent. The authors point out some of the key
decisions you will need to take, together with advice on your
overall approach, and some of the lessons learned by other
organizations along the way. About The Gower HR Transformation
Series: The Human Resources function faces a continuing challenge
to its role and purpose, in many organizations it has suffered from
serious under-representation at strategic, board level. Yet, faced
with the challenges of globalism, the need to innovate, manage
knowledge, attract and retain the very best employees,
organizations need an HR function that can lead from the front. The
process of transforming the function is complex and rarely linear.
It involves understanding and adapting to the needs of your offices
in the various countries, cultures and markets within which you
operate. All of which involves a highly complex and, often painful,
process of change. The Gower HR Transformation Series will help; it
uses a blend of conceptual frameworks, practical advice and global
case study examples to cover each of the main elements of the HR
transformation process. The books in the series follow a standard
format to make them easy to read and reference. Together, the
titles create a definitive guide from one of the leading specialist
HR transformation consultancies; an organization that has been
involved in HR transformation for clients as diverse as Bombardier
Transportation, Marks & Spencer, Barnardo's, Oxfam, Schroders,
UnitedHealth Group, Nestle, BP, HM Prison Service, Transport for
London and Vodafone.
