functions.• creating a culture for supporting a happy workplace that is an experience, not just a job.
People Before Strategy: A New Role for the CHRO (Harvard Business Review)• CEOs know that they depend on their company’s human resources to achieve
success. Businesses don’t create value; people do.• Elevating HR requires totally redefining the work content of the chief human
resources officer.• Business will benefit from better management of not just its financial resources
but also its human ones.• CHROs should recommend ways to use human capital to unlock or create value.
