Description
The CPO role has finally taken its rightful place on the Executive Committee and people management is recognised as a true differentiator of success for modern organisations.
However, CPOs face a challenge. In a world of increasing regulation and litigation, and with greater expectations than ever of how organisations should support their people, the role risks being overwhelmed. Managers are drowning under the weight of people-related tasks, while employees demand ever more from their workplace. CEOs and Boards need everything done yesterday.
Facing these pressures, the most impactful people work, ironically, risks being dehumanised.
It’s time to bring humanity back to the workplace. It’s time to empower our managers and leaders, lighten the load, harness technology and re-introduce some agility in order to optimise impact and bring back some enjoyment to this complex role.
Using a tried and tested framework, this book de-constructs the CPO role. It links people management to three core areas of Culture, Strategy and Execution. It guides the reader through seven stages of the end-to-end employee lifecycle and breaks down seven HR Centres of Excellence. Moreover, it looks to the future of people management and how we must evolve from here.
This engaging, comprehensive book condenses almost 50 collective years of experience of working in and around people into a solid framework for the new or aspiring CPO. It is also an important reference for Boards, Committees and all leaders who want to get the best from their people in order to position their organisations for success.
