Michèle, HRD - France: HR, Useless people and pain in your neck? Prompt the change!
HR, one doesn’t know what that is used for! It is true! A survey led in 2016 by Cegos, confirms that the HR profile holds the most uncomfortable position within the steering committee.
And another one led in 2015 by ADP shows that only 24% of the employees are “extremely or very satisfied” with the HR function in their company.
Then, well: prompt the change! Recruit an HR Director and, while requiring of him a strong participation within the steering committee, check that he/she has phobia of HR offices.
Michèle is an HR Director with expertise in international environment and matrix organisation. Specialized in middle-size companies and subsidiaries. Experience in a wide range of sectors. Design of HR strategies and operational implementation. Keen to establish constructive social relations. Strong support to business. Resolutely engaged in CRS. Promoter of digitalisation and agility.
