• HR has moved from being just an enabler to becoming a key driver of
organizational outcomes. Moving from looking at HR as a resource manager,
organizations are opening up the fact that the function of HR is to create a
‘Human Operating System’ that actually propels the organization towards its
goals. Erstwhile roles included the typical functional HR roles, but across the last
five years, HR has become a key differentiator and enabler of mindsets,
unleashing potential for performance by embedding and strengthening values-
based leadership.
• The most important people related challenges include fostering of cultures of
values based behaviors and the unleashing of human potential in the face of
ambiguity.
