“Strategy must be created from the future backwards,not the present forwards.”,Gary Hamel,Management Thinker on foresight, strategy and innovation.(www.rogerdennis.com)
Participants rated recruiting and retaining human capital as the biggest challenge for 2009, at the Jacob Fleming HR forum 2008. Reduced man-force against the same work-load is the issue that HR is facing in today’s financial crisis. In this very crisis lies an opportunity for HR to prove its integral role in business operations.
Being named a strategic team member in your organization isn’t enough. Performance is key for HR credibility. How can you retain and strengthen your talent pool without compromising your budget? How can you source into the Middle East the huge talent pool available in the U.S. and Europe that resulted from the crisis ?
The temporary solution of laying-off people will pose a much bigger problem in the coming fiscal years. Learn to let go of personnel without burning your bridges. The economy will inevitably rise. Stabilize your talent assets for the time when business operations expand.
Fleming
Gulf presents in response to the latest HR demands, Human Capital Management Forum 2009 in
Dubai, 19-21 May, Dubai-UAE 2009.
Find the opportunity in the crisis by investing in strategies that will strengthen talent management. Turn our academic breakthrough into physical results. Smart-size. Don’t down-size.
