HR as Accelerator of Business Agility
Fabiola Eyholzer's work as executive advisor and transformation consultant reveals a key aspect of creating organizations fit to
compete in an uncertain, volatile, and fast paced environment.
Without the ability to create meaningful employee experiences in combination with building engaging, inspiring, and fun places of work t
hat are in line with Lean | Agile values and principles, organizations can no longer thrive - and HR will have failed in its mission.
To succeed, HR must embrace the new realities and reinvent itself. (This is likely to include a name change to People Operations,
Talent & Culture or another suitable name).
And the impact is clear: Believing in people and building on their strength while scaling learning and collaboration will increase
engagement, innovation, and adaptability, and ultimately translate into high performance, customer value and business results.
“We cannot leverage the power of Lean-Agile without aligning our people approach to the new way of working. That makes HR the secret to Business Agility.”
