Review and development of HR strategy for a leading Global Telecommunications Company

A FTSE 100 global telecommunications business needed to review its current people strategy to ensure that it was investing effort and resources into the activities that would make the biggest difference to achieving the Group strategy.

It recognised that effort was being duplicated, HR employees were unclear about priorities and the business did not always see the value of HR activities.

SOLUTION:

Review and recommendations for change to ensure that the new people strategy was clear, specific and measurable, and that HR functions in each business had clear priorities and knew how they were contributing the organisation's strategic aims.
