Should HR Be Split into Two Branches?
The TalentCulture #TChat Show is back live on Wednesday, February 4, 2015, from 7-8 pm ET (4-5 pm PT). Last week we talked about how authentic storytelling in the workplace impacts talent strategies, and this week we\u2019re going to talk about whether or not\xa0HR in the enterprise should be split into two branches. In fact, one of the hottest topics being discussed at the C-suite level is whether HR should be split into two distinct functions \u2013 one that handles administration and one that manages leadership and organization.\xa0 Research by Bersin by Deloitte supports the recommendation because HR is swamped with administrative tasks. In fact, nearly 50 percent of business and HR leaders surveyed said their companies are \u201cweak\u201d on preparing HR to deliver programs aligned with business needs. \xa0 The right technology enables HR to scale certain tasks in a way that humans never can, bringing\xa0efficiencies to a complex administrative process that can\u2019t be achieved otherwise.\xa0 HR needs to leverage this ability, so it can fulfill a critical role in the organization\u2019s business strategy.
