Making a Bang in '07: Partnering with the
C-Suite for Organizational Excellence
January 2007 Newsletter
As we begin 2007, most of us have set new goals, higher
goals, in our work and personal lives. Professionals in all industries
are looking for ways to become more valuable in the New Year -- make a
bang so-to-speak. One theme that's common in the human resource
industry is how we, as human resource professionals, can position
ourselves as a corporate strategy driver and executive partner, rather
than a tactical dept.
This month's issue includes articles that highlight the
various strategies human resource professionals and departments are using
to partner with the executive suite to gain organizational excellence.
You will find what some in the industry are doing to help their
organizations meet complicated competitive challenges, and how to take
the HR department to new levels.
We hope this issue will help in your partnership with the
C-Suite and start your 2007 with a bang.
