Return on People
The March issue of the Harvard Business Review has an interesting, comprehensive article titled Maximizing Your Return on People. Authors Laurie Bassi and Daniel McMurrer of McBassi & Company explain “New tools can show you which investments in employees are driving company performance now and which you should emphasize to advance your strategic goals.”
Quantifying the results of HCM practices has been an elusive goal. It’s worth paying the nominal reprint fee for a copy of this article. It’s based on 10 years of research, and includes a framework and checklist to use for your own organization.
