Changing Nature of Human
Resource Management
Jack Welch- Winning (Chairman and CEO of General Electric between 1981 and 2001)
“Elevate HR to a position of power and primacy in the organization, and make sure HR people have the special qualities to help managers build leaders and careers. In fact, the best HR types are pastors
(preachers) and parents in the same package.”
“The head of human resources at any company should be at least as important as the CFO.”
