DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION
What this document is intended to do is stimulate revelations on the topic of Human Resources ? to stimulate the little grey cells further than ever before on this topic. If my 48 years of consulting around the world has shown me anything, it is that the issue of Human Resources still remains somewhat of a mystery to many organizations and their Senior Executives as well as too often being undervalued while at the same time being a critical success factor for your organization.
For literally centuries ? and even into recent times in some organizations where I have had hands-on experience ? well-known organizations you would recognize immediately - employees were cast as ?tools to get a job done ? thinking not required'. Yet we know that in reality this cannot be further from the truth! Just have a look at Fortune Magazine's annual list of ?Best Companies to Work For' and see who is on the list and if your organization is one of them. Done anything innovative in the Human Resources area lately? Based again on what I have seen, probably not. Even if you are on the Fortune list does not mean you can sit idly by twiddling your thumbs feeling complacent or feeling that ?hey we've made it, so let's check that box and move on to something really important!'
But the fact remains that employees are truly an organization's greatest asset! Why then are the appropriate investments not being made pervasively across organizations in all industries and sectors to ensure that the potential contribution from each and every employee is being reached ? maximized - and the organization reaps the greatest return possible? As an aside, keep in mind that your employees should represent a competitive advantage which no other organization can hope to duplicate!
What are the ?true' drivers of employee satisfaction, motivation and engagement? You will find actual research contained within this document which will spell it out. And at the same time do an excellent job of explaining ?employee engagement'. While becoming more recently an overworked phrase see why it is critical to your organization's future success! You need to grasp this concept in its simplicity and the requirements necessary to execute flawlessly against to ensure it happens. What you will be told is that ?employee engagement' is the outcome of doing a lot of things well! Find out what these requirements are at last! Your future may depend on it!
And then there is the matter of the Human Resources function in your organization. In many organizations, while the name has been changed from Personnel to Human Resources possibly to protect the innocent, how often are Top Management in the Human Resource Function treated as true strategic partners by the Leadership Team let alone, in some organizations, even being a full-fledged member of the Leadership Team! Instead, they are too often relegated to the position of being the proverbial ?water boy/girl' or ?whipping boy/girl' who simply follows directions and does what he or she is told to do ? ?no thinking required?'
For your organization to be truly successful ? to reach its full potential, the Human Resource function must be restructured! But how? This document will provide you with the structure you should seriously consider adopting immediately!
Last but not least we take a peek into the future and explore Human Performance Excellence and be even more forward looking, driven by strategic thinking and foresight/vision to thus be shown where things could or should go in the future for your ?people' ? being the wind under their wings to carry them higher than you or they ever thought possible and to ensure remarkable contributions/creativity and innovation from one and all.
If you truly wish your organization to ?be the best it can be' ? to have a commanding leadership role and sustainable competitive advantage, you need to read, absorb, reflect and apply/flawlessly execute what is contained in this document.

For us, it is an invaluable resource to increase our impact and value."
– David Coloma, Consulting Area Manager at Cynertia Consulting
"As a consulting firm, we had been creating subject matter training materials for our people and found the excellent materials on Flevy, which saved us 100's of hours of re-creating what already exists on the Flevy materials we purchased."
– Michael Evans, Managing Director at Newport LLC
"Flevy is now a part of my business routine. I visit Flevy at least 3 times each month.
Flevy has become my preferred learning source, because what it provides is practical, current, and useful in this era where the business world is being rewritten.
In today's environment where there are so many challenges and there is the need to make the right decisions in a short time, with so much scattered information, we are fortunate to have Flevy. Flevy investigates, selects, and puts at our disposal the best of the best to help us be successful in our work."
– Omar Hernán Montes Parra, CEO at Quantum SFE

– Julia T., Consulting Firm Owner (Former Manager at Deloitte and Capgemini)
"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.
I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me.
Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current.
Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world."
– Roberto Pelliccia, Senior Executive in International Hospitality
"FlevyPro has been a brilliant resource for me, as an independent growth consultant, to access a vast knowledge bank of presentations to support my work with clients. In terms of RoI, the value I received from the very first presentation I downloaded paid for my subscription many times over! The quality of the decks available allows me to punch way above my weight – it's like having the resources of a Big 4 consultancy at your fingertips at a microscopic fraction of the overhead."
– Roderick Cameron, Founding Partner at SGFE Ltd

"As a small business owner, the resource material available from FlevyPro has proven to be invaluable. The ability to search for material on demand based our project events and client requirements was great for me and proved very beneficial to my clients. Importantly, being able to easily edit and tailor the material for specific purposes helped us to make presentations, knowledge sharing, and toolkit development, which formed part of the overall program collateral. While FlevyPro contains resource material that any consultancy, project or delivery firm must have, it is an essential part of a small firm or independent consultant's toolbox."
– Michael Duff, Managing Director at Change Strategy (UK)
