Addressing Executive Blind Spots Transforming HR into a Strategic Asset with: Yara Banks

If you want to work on the frontlines of shaping organizational culture, consider a role in the human resources department. This position allows you to establish the principles that define the organization. As an HR professional, you will be responsible for evaluating the most important asset to the company’s viability: its people.   This is arguably one of the most challenging yet rewarding times to be in HR. With many business issues driven by people, talent, and workforce dynamics, it is the perfect moment for HR to have a seat at the table.   However, creating and sustaining a positive and productive work environment is not automatic. Five key shifts can help HR make a significant impact and thrive in their role.   The good news is that 89% of CEOs believe HR should play a central role in the business, according to recent data from Accenture. The bad news is that only 45% of CEOs report that they are creating conditions for HR to effectively lead business growth.   Accenture's data also found that high-performing Chief Human Resource Officers (CHROs) are four times more likely to cultivate strong relationships across the organization, particularly at the executive level. They tend to have mutually influential relationships with the CEO and senior leaders in finance, technology, and operations. Moreover, they typically possess strong overall leadership skills.   Hi, I’m Yara Banks, author of "The Executive Blindspot."
