A world that seems to hold surprises around every corner requires that businesses can constantly evolve their strategy. Approaches that at one time seemed rock solid, begin to erode and new factors emerge overnight to create opportunity, and peril.

But adapting to these changes cannot happen in a silo. Organizations can only change as rapidly as the employees within them do and employees need information and guidance from leaders, managers and HR to navigate changes in the work they do every day.

HCI research suggests that organizations that are mindful of their employee’s daily experience are better positioned to help them thrive in a changing world and the key to that advantage lies in a HR function that is steeped in strategic understanding.

HR teams that understand strategy better are more able to partner with leaders in deploying talent in ways that meet the organization’s changing needs and provide a better employee experience to every member of the team.
