I bet you don’t have the guts to commit to this philosophy HR:
“I am a leader who is responsible for everything that happens in my organization first; and I am responsible for what happens in HR second.”
I bet you don’t know enough about how your company actually generates revenue, manages expenses, contracts with vendors, takes care of its customers, or grows market share.
I bet you’re not willing to be held accountable for a weak quarterly earnings report, or problem in the supply chain.
I bet you’d rather lament the fact that HR isn’t recognized for being “special” just because you’re HR.
In fact, I bet its easier to sit in your chair and complain that you don’t have your rightful place in the corporate hierarchy.
Guess what, if you aren’t willing to take any of my bets, you don’t deserve a place in the corporate hierarchy.
How About You
How are you feeling right now; angry, embarrassed, indifferent? Step up and make something happen HR. You can do it…all you have to do is start trying.
