The CURRENT state of Human Resources is awful and needs a transformation
​
Human resources is way overdue for an overhaul; the attempts in the past years have only been distractions and superficial attempts. Many leaders currently in charge of HR are holding back their company's growth.
​
The people leading HR today are the establishment and are not capable of leading this change because they are the very system they say they want to change.
​
CEOs, BODs, and Executive Teams need to expect real value from HR- they have been enablers for far too long.
As Einstein stated “We cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.”
