"This is the Center for Effective Organizations' (CEO) fourth
national study of the human resources (HR) function in large
corporations. It is the only long-term national study of this
important function. Like the previous studies, it focuses on
measuring whether the HR function is changing and on gauging its
effectiveness. The study focuses particularly on whether the HR
function is changing to become an effective strategic partner. It
also analyzes how organizations can more effectively manage their
human capital and outsourcing decisions. The present study compares
data from earlier studies to data collected in 2004. The results show
some important changes and indicate what HR needs to do to be
effective. Practices are identified that enable HR functions to be
high value-added strategic partners."--BOOK JACKET.
