The Need

Tough economic conditions and an increasingly competitive business environment require improvements across the organisation. Gone are the days when businesses regard HR as a simple and convenient post box to be used whenever the need arises – very useful when it comes to disciplinary and grievance matters.

The agenda has changed and HR professionals should take responsibility and be accountable as a full business partner. This means on the one hand the Setting Up of Professional HR Departments and on the other HR Adding Value.

The Oakwood Group are particularly well placed to work with Business Leaders on expanding the role of HR.

The Need

Rapid Growth across organizations and changes in legislation require the setting up of an HR Function or improvements to existing HR Structures, Policies and Procedures. Businesses can no longer regard HR as a luxury. This is where Oakwood International Consulting can provide valuable input.

    • Review what you have at the moment
    • Work with you to ensure your existing structure is what your business requires in a way that adds value (see HR Adding Value) rather than being seen merely as a cost centre
