With an overwhelming emphasis on HR’s transition from the transactional role to a strategic business partner, the department needs to put its metrics where its mouth is! Metrics provide tangible, measurable evidence of HR’s impact to the business, and allow HR to validate their role to upper management while influencing profitability and impacting the bottom line. Additionally metrics serve to evaluate, analyze and assess where the organization stands across various sectors of business- not only to measure success but also to identify areas of opportunity to promote the utmost organizational efficiency!

Companies need to be innovative in developing metrics- not just any metrics but rather the right strategic metrics. Moreover, organizations need to link these key strategic metrics to the company’s overall business strategy and goals to ensure that HR secures their role as the strategic business partner.
