SUMMARY: The business case for addressing HR’s role within an organizational profit chain can be difficult to express. HR has to get better at meeting the “wallet test” by illustrating the alignment between HR and aspects of business strategy relating to driving employee behavior and organizational capabilities that result in customers and shareholders reaching for their wallets!
There is a growing recognition that financial performance and profits are based on, and driven by, a number of performance indicators which are carried out through human behavior.
Performance-measurement models are doing a better job of making the case for investing in the soft employee issues which make a difference to the hard business results. For example, employee attitudes and performance (i.e., soft employee issues) drive customer satisfaction which creates revenue and growth (i.e., hard employee issues). This session will explore how to articulate, measure, and deliver key objectives to align with the strategic goals of an organization to meet the “wallet test” and deliver results that effect the bottom line of any organization.
