training for HR business partners - from HR manager to management partner

The importance of human resources has increased across all industries, both in SMEs and large corporations. For a long time, HR decisions were mainly made on the basis of gut feeling and without being integrated into a business plan, but today HR departments in companies are usually directly linked to management. In this training for HR business partners, you will learn everything about an even closer link between company management and the HR department and how you can set the course for successful company growth. After all, in addition to innovative strength and economic stability, "human capital" plays a decisive role when it comes to a company's competitiveness and prospects.

 

The new role for decision makers in HR management

Today, HR business partners stand for the continuous further development of human resources in companies and demonstrate the increased appreciation for this area. An increasing shortage of skilled workers and growing competitive pressure due to digitalization and globalization are ensuring that HR planning is becoming more and more of a focus and needs to be. Today, companies and managers can no longer afford to do recruitment and HR planning "on the side". The importance of "human capital" is now too great. With this training for HR business partners , you lay the foundation for ensuring that your HR management is in line with your company's economic goals in the future. This gives the management and extended management the opportunity to invest more time in their core tasks.

Please note: We use third-party tools for selected events. Personal data of the participant will be passed on to them for the implementation of the training offer. You can find more information in our privacy policy.
