H
- HR business partnering
A model in which HR specialists work embedded alongside a business unit's management, contributing to its decisions directly rather than only providing central, transactional HR services.
- Human resource strategy
A plan aligning HR policy and practice to the organisation's overall strategy, so resourcing, reward and development choices actively support where the organisation is trying to go (CS Management Principles and Practice, on planning and organising).
The full glossary adds every term from the other 11 chapters, A to Z, each with the chapter that teaches it.
