The Need For More Interactive HR Programs May Make The Generalist Obsolete The era of the generalist as HR leaders may be waning as automation of many functions takes hold. Some experts see the rise of self-service as reducing the need for generalists across sthe industry. This means that in 2012 it is likely that we will see the eradication of the middle man in HR. According to Michael Custers, Vice President, global Marketing, Northgate Arinso, pure HR transactions will be increasingly automated, for instance via a Global HR & Payroll system. Self service will make it easier to enforce HR policies through technology and as companies are able to do this at the local and global level, fewer business partners (HR generalists) are needed to deal with any exceptions. However, it is not a totally bleak outlook for the HR industry. HR specialists who provide expertise within areas such as talent management, leadership development or analystics will grow their roles and provide serious business value. This trend will also affect smaller, domestic enterprises as well. (more) 60 experts offer HR executives Solutions To Today's HR Challenges. |
