Webinar: What Differentiates a Great HR Director?

Written By Karen Ward, Dan Caro, Jennifer Duvalier, Nick Holley

For over 25 years CRF have been researching what differentiates great HR functions and great HR people, whilst our sister organisation, Strategic Dimensions, has talked to hundreds of business clients and CEOs and has a deep understanding of what they look for in their HR people. Combining insights from both sides of the business, CRF’s webinar will explored the qualities and commercial capabilities of truly exceptional HRDs that will help aspiring HRDs assess their strong qualities but also focus on developing weaker capabilities.

During this webinar we explored the qualities of great HRDs and discussed the following:

The importance of value creation in any business and the role of HR
How organisations really work and how to get things done in the real world
How to create credibility within the business
Measuring the impact of HR initiatives.
