How HR can build business skills
Is having an experience in a commercial role a must to develop business acumen?

A study by a global recruiting and HR solutions firm — where more than 200 chief human resource officers (CHROs) from around the world participated — found that about 41 per cent of CHROs have noticed business skills or business acumen lacking in talent seeking HR roles.
Why is that? Well, most of the HR leaders HRKatha spoke to, feel HR professionals lack such skills because they love being in the comfort zone of their corporate offices. They are not really curious about the business side of things in the organisation.
In fact, many of the new breed of HR leaders do not even come from a plant HR experience. They have no understanding of how things operate at the plants.
