Product Description

Product Description

Human Resource Champions issues a challenge to HR professionals: define the value you create and institute measures for your performance, or face the inevitable outsourcing of your function. Ulrich identifies four distinct roles that human resources staff must assume-strategic player, administrative expert, employee champion, and change agent. He provides hands-on tools that show HR professionals how they can operate in all four areas simultaneously and offers specific recommendations for partnering with line managers to deliver value and make their organizations more competitive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must reading for any leading edge HR leader, 24 Oct 1997
By A Customer
Ulrich presents one of the better models of human resources management. He addressess and answers once and for all the stress which is felt by all HR practitioners between the demand for providing administrative support for their organizations and the need to paly a role in the proactive business strategy development. Ulrich is one of the few academics who clearly knows his way around the HR practitioner world. His strategy chapter is worth the purchase price of the book. The only regret is the title of the book which I am afraid will diminish possible readership.

5.0 out of 5 stars The HR managers Guru, 3 Feb 2003
Ulrich is the HR managers thought leader. All the contents build into a rational framework for making HR a high value part of the strategic team.His style apeals to the pragmatic but he gives enough theory to satisfy the academically minded in us.

It must be the best buy in the HR catalogue.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic Reference for Human Resource Professionals, 8 April 1999
By A Customer
Purchased the book after hearing Mr. Ulrich speak at the 1998 American Society of Healthcare Human Resources Association Convention in Phoenix. One of his initial comments at his talk was that he would be guilty of taking his ideas and making them practical realities. Although the talk was excellent, the book was better. A practical guide to taking HR to the next level. A challenge to practitioners to move beyond doing things to delivering quality activities to the organization. This book will become a classic.
