Business is changing, are you keeping up?

The 4 Essential CHRO Skills

Business is Changing. HR Leaders Need to Change With It

Digital transformation is a top priority for CEOs. Yet, according to Gartner’s 2018 Future of HR Survey, more than 60% of CHROs worry they’re unprepared to manage coming technological disruptions.

So, while the core attributes of a good CHRO—critical thinking, creativity, leadership, and communication—have stood the test of time, they need additional skills to build talent organizations that can move at the pace of today’s business.

CHROs need four key skills to thrive in the future. And the skills may surprise you.

  • Move fast, communicate faster
  • Think (even more) strategically
  • Know your workforce
  • Build—and sell—your vision

Move fast, communicate faster

According to the Deloitte Global Human Capital Trends report, 91% of companies still rely on the traditional HR practice of annual reviews. But in a world where entrenched business models are being systematically disrupted, employees need feedback on a continuous basis, not just once a year.

To build organizations that can change course quickly, CHROs should embrace an agile approach, favoring faster feedback and ongoing reassessment over multi-year planning. They can use AI-powered performance review tools like ADP Compass or Humu, which crunch data on workers’ productivity and give them “nudges” on how to improve it in real time.

Think (even more) strategically

CHROs need a strategic vision to be indispensable in the boardroom.

Know your workforce

More than half of workers say their job responsibilities are too opaque, that they strain under too many demands, and that they’re entangled in to too many professional relationships, according to a recent Gartner study. Yet only 18% of CHROs rank rethinking and reconfiguring organizational structures as a priority within the next three years.

Build—and sell—your vision

CHROs who want to transform entrenched HR processes need to effectively communicate their vision to win buy-ins from key stakeholders across the company. This includes articulating a hiring and growth strategy that accounts for changing workforce dynamics.

In the United States alone, more than 40% of workers are engaged in contingent and gig work, according to a 2018 Deloitte study. Forward-leaning CHROs need to think about building teams with the right mix of full-time staff and project-based freelancers. They also need to future-proof their talent pool by reskilling and upskilling employees for evolving business objectives. For CHROs to succeed on these shifting sands, they will need to lead the way from old HR processes into digitally advanced ones.
