    The Changing World of Human Resources: Why Human Resources (HR) is still Relevant

    I recently responded to an article posted on a social media website written by a prominent “performance” consultant that went viral. The article leads with the author’s suggestion that HR departments should disappear and that HR professionals may think they are strategic partners, but in reality the profession is filled with administrative “paper pushers” who don’t understand performance or how to drive it. The article continues to deride the entire discipline of an evolving segment of the workforce without paying homage to how HR has truly changed. After reading the article and many postings, I could not understand how the author dismissed the correlation of the Human Resources profession as a viable factor in driving corporate and organizational performance.
