Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP) Development

This week’s assignment is two-fold. Please discuss the case, then complete assignment.

Part One:

Add your opinion about the choices and decisions being made in the case. if this was your company, would you make this choice?
What would you do differently?
Use at least five quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: You may only use the resources listed in the Course Guide and those that are specifically provided by the professor.

Part Two:

Your previous contributions addressing a variety of important topics outlined in all previous assignments for this course are deemed essential in supporting the business’ overall organizational structure and competitive advantage strategy. It is now time to consider developing your own HR department team to ensure they have the requisite skills and competencies necessary to perform at high levels over time. Effective and motivated HR business partners (HRBP) will be the key to translating HR and business strategy into action. The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Body of Competency and Knowledge (BoCK) can be an invaluable resource to help develop and certify HR professionals. You must now explain to the management team the components of this model and how it can be leveraged to achieve operational success for the HR department. A one-hour meeting has been scheduled, and the CEO will be in attendance.

Create a 20-slide minimum PowerPoint presentation with your script or discussion or commentary in the Notes section of each slide, in which you do the following:

Include a cover, presentation agenda, conclusion, and reference list slides, all of which may count toward the total slide count.
Provide a slide with an overview of the importance of having a highly-developed staff of HR business partners. Be clear with your position.
Provide 1-4 slides introducing the SHRM BoCK model and its components. Be sure to highlight each of the areas of the model. Note:It is highly recommended to insert an image of the actual SHRM BoCK model into the presentation.
Include in the remaining slides the following required presentation information:

Provide a minimum of four bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing the specifics of the SHRM BoCK’s “Behavioral Competencies.”
Provide a minimum of three to four bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing the specifics of the SHRM BoCK’s “HR Expertise: Domains 1 & 2.”
Provide a minimum of three to four bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing the specifics of the SHRM BoCK’s “HR Expertise: Domains 3 & 4.”
Provide a minimum of three to four bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing specifics on certifying your HRBPs.
Note:Good PowerPoints have very few words on the slides themselves—almost all of the information you need to include should be in the Notes.

Use at least five quality academic resources in this assignment. Note:You may only use the resources listed in the Course Guide and those that are specifically provided by the professor.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

Have headings for each section with all bulleted information aligned properly and using the same font and size. Images may be used but must be professional and relevant to the topic.
The source or sources of all images must be credited with both citation and reference. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
Include citations and references for all information received from other sources.
All bullet-point information in the Notes sections must be descriptive and have a minimum of 3-4 full sentences.

ANSWER

Part One: Case Analysis

In assessing the choices and decisions made in the case, it’s essential to consider the context and potential implications for the company. If this were my company, I would evaluate the choices based on their alignment with organizational goals, values, and long-term sustainability. Decisions should prioritize employee well-being, organizational effectiveness, and ethical considerations. Without specific details of the case provided, it’s challenging to offer a definitive opinion.

To address potential areas for improvement, I would focus on enhancing communication channels, fostering a culture of transparency and inclusion, and investing in employee development initiatives. Additionally, I would prioritize building resilience and adaptability within the organization to navigate future challenges effectively.
