This one-day workshop covers tools for implementing, developing, and assessing the effectiveness of HR Business Partnering

Introduction

The most common challenges experienced in implementing business partners generally relate to developing the role appropriately. Almost half of respondents whose organisations have introduced HR business partners agree that they have been drawn into activities that are not relevant to the role and just under half recognize that there has been tension between responding to corporate and business unit needs. A quarter think that the business partner role is or has been unclearly defined.

During this one day program, participants will be introduced to HR Business Partnering and the various tools for implementing Business Partnering, developing as an HR Business Partner and assessing the effectiveness of HR Business Partnering.
