Abstract

In our previous book Leading HR, we argued that HR is being repositioned as a function in part because of internal organization design pressures resulting from complex business models, but also: as a consequence of changes in the importance of external inter-dependence and partnership. The organizational “value web” is, in almost every case, extended across traditional organizational boundaries. This interdependence is a defining characteristic of business model change. Relationships with external bodies which were previously characterised as adversarial at best are suddenly having to be redesigned under a partnership model, as long term contracts are developed with other organizations in the same value web.
