In order for your organisation to build a competitive advantage, as well as contribute to your country's growth, you need to approach HR as a business strategy.
It is time to reposition your organisation's HR function by redesigning the traditional view of HR and functions performed, to a new era of HR professionals who fulfill the strategic roles of business partners.
