From Operational to Strategic: HR’s influential new role
Transactional, short-term, cost-centric—that’s the traditional Human Resources (HR) function. But there’s a new era of HR: one that’s transformational, oriented towards long-term outcomes, and investment-centered.
If you aim to bring about change that empowers HR to drive business transformation, then this program is for you. Our Strategic HR Business Partner Program is designed to help you pivot to this strategic role by enhancing your business acumen and analytical skills to effectively partner with business owners and leaders.
The program will equip you with insights and skills to improve your organization’s performance amid changing work environments, employee expectations, and talent shortage. The frameworks and skills you learn in this program will help you elevate your HR role.
