Alinhamento dos recursos humanos com a estratégia

A propósito deste postal "O que faria diferente (parte II)" e do desafio do indicador "Formação profissional", é fácil concordar que a formação profissional pode ser relevante para melhorar o desempenho de uma empresa. Já não é tão claro perceber qual é a formação que interessa (ver este excelente filme sobre o custo da oportunidade).
.
Assim, este trecho faz todo o sentido:

"I talk with CEOs across the globe who are disappointed in their HR people. They would like to be able to use their chief human resource officers (CHROs) the way they use their CFOs—as sounding boards and trusted partners—and rely on their skills in linking people and numbers to diagnose weaknesses and strengths in the organization, find the right fit between employees and jobs, and advise on the talent implications of the company’s strategy.
.
But it’s a rare CHRO who can serve in such an active role. Most of them are process-oriented generalists who have expertise in personnel benefits, compensation, and labor relations. They are focused on internal matters such as engagement, empowerment, and managing cultural issues. What they can’t do very well is relate HR to real-world business needs. They don’t know how key decisions are made, and they have great difficulty analyzing why people—or whole parts of the organization—aren’t meeting the business’s performance goals."
