From Partners to Players: Extending the HR Playing Field
主张人力资源专业人士应从传统的行政和业务伙伴角色转变为“玩家”，即通过教练、架构师、建设者、促进者、领导者和良知提供者等角色，在业务中发挥实际影响。
Abstract HR professionals must always be “becoming” or constantly changing and adapting. For the last decade, many have argued the business partner role as a complement to traditional HR administrative work. We argue in this paper that HR professionals should move beyond partners to become players. HR professionals as players are “in the game, on the field, making a difference” through their HR work. In this article, we suggest that to become players, HR professionals must learn to coach, architect, build, facilitate, lead, and provide a conscience to business leaders. Specific knowledge and tools for each of these roles are described. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
