Abstract

Any HR professional who hopes to earn a place in the C-Suite needs to face the reality that getting there will not be easy. The total number of places in the C-Suite is limited. And, in virtually all companies, the total number of seats in the C-Suite available to be occupied by a senior HR professional is likely to be just one, if any. The quest for a seat in the C-Suite is further complicated for HR professionals. HR has an image problem with many current and future business leaders that adds to the difficulty of earning a place in the senior leadership of an organization. Obviously, the negative opinions of HR must be overcome before a place in the C-Suite can be truly earned. Earning a seat in the C-Suite won’t be easy but it is not impossible. Getting there requires the right set of personal and business skills.
