Why an HR Competency Study?
• What are the competencies required of HR professionals to add greater value?
• How can HR professionals develop these competencies quickly and efficiently?
• How can HR competencies and HR practices align to business performance?
HRCS Background• History
– Conducted by The RBL Group and Ross School at University of Michigan
– Major data collection five times in the past 20 years– 40,000 HR professionals and line management associates
have contributed to date (10,000 respondents in latest 2007 survey)
– Most comprehensive empirical review of the HR field available
• Composition– Small, medium, and large firms– Virtually all industries– International in scope, from six regions of the world– “360-degree” methodology
• HR professionals evaluated themselves• HR and non-HR associates (internal clients) evaluated HR
colleagues
Round 5 Results – HR Landscape“The business context and organization capabilities required to succeed have raised the bar for HR professionals. Those who succeeded 30, 20 or even 10 years ago likely would not succeed today.
HR professionals are expected to play new roles… [they] need to learn how to play roles that require technical expertise and apply that expertise to business performance. HR professionals need new competencies to play such roles.”
HR Competencies, p 18
Round 5 Results – Way Forward
• We now know the basics of what good HR people need to know and do to be effective.
• We can develop these competencies.
• Business units that develop these competencies perform better – they get better bottom-line results.
