    Sixty per cent of CEOs are rethinking the HR function, expecting HR leaders to be “broad-gauge business executives”. This expectation varies widely across organisations and business leaders, making it a challenge for aspiring and current CHROs to understand their key competencies, duties and priorities.

    The Model of a World-Class CHRO:

    • Creates visibility in all of the components that comprise the CHRO role
    • Establishes a standard baseline for excellence
    • Enables you to take stock of key priorities so you can develop a plan that will guide you to success

    Achieve a level of personal and functional excellence with action-oriented guidance to:

    • run a credible, capable and fiscally responsible HR function;
    • integrate HR strategy and business strategy;
    • act as the board’s leader in human capital management;
    • drive culture and purpose for the organisation; and
    • become a trusted advisory to the CEO.
