Transforming Human Resources

July 9, 2008

Deloitte Consulting's Human Resources Transformation Survey is critical of the approach companies are bringing to revamping their human resource departments, finding that, while 84% of the 150 companies surveyed are currently working on transforming their HR functions, many are missing an opportunity to make HR an integral part of their business strategy. Instead, the focus is still on savings, systems and processes, not long-term strategy:
  • 85% of respondents cited cost savings or efficiency as key drivers behind HR improvements;
  • 75% cited effectiveness of service;
  • Only 1/3 cite building HR capability as a driver for their overhaul;
  • Even fewer (30%) claimed to be working on freeing HR to take a more strategic role;
  • 40% cited training the next generation of leaders as a key business issue driving HR improvements;
  • 33% cited building and managing a global workforce;
  • 27% cited an aging workforce;
  • 21% identified mergers and acquisitions as an issue driving change in HR; and,
  • Only 40% of respondents have structured processes for future HR planning.
