Rethink HR

HR challenges everyone. But who challenges HR?

HR is expected to enable change, support leaders and create business value. Yet it is rarely challenged with the same scrutiny, while structures grow complex and responsibilities blur.

An independent perspective

Rethink HR brings an independent, practical perspective to the effectiveness of HR. I examine how HR is organised, which activities create value, how resources are deployed and where processes, technology and capabilities need to evolve.

The objective

Not transformation for its own sake.

The aim is an HR function that works more efficiently, contributes more effectively and is ready for the future.

Who it is for

  • CEOs and managing directors
  • HR directors
  • Organisations reviewing their HR function

Typical starting points are the HR operating model with its roles, interfaces and capacities, and the question of what HR contributes to the business.

Frequently asked questions

What do you need from us for an HR Reality Check?

Scope, access to data and deliverables are agreed individually with each organisation.

How is Rethink HR different from Leadership Development?

Rethink HR is a separate offer for organisations and looks at the HR function as a whole. Leadership Development works with individual leaders and their teams.

Does a review always lead to a large change programme?

No. Any support beyond the review is tailored to the maturity and needs of your organisation.
