The Value of People to Organizational Decision Makers
One of the most elusive tasks facing Human Resource (HR) professionals today is figuring out how to accurately measure and report information about the value of people to organizational decision makers; reporting this in a form that is useful for strategic decision making is even more difficult. Tackling this topic and applying it in the workplace requires a quantitative skill set that many HR professionals do not possess, so it is reasonable to assume that building skills in this area might make us more valuable on the job market and more useful in the eyes of future employers, especially as the HR profession continues to move beyond tactical and transactional functions.
