Presidents Forum Performance Measurement – some myths and realities in HR Speaker – Sir Andrew Likierman, London Business School 4.45pm for 5.15 until 7.15 on 15th September 2009
HR is constantly required to justify what it does in terms of results. Whether it’s talent management, executive education or coaching, the function is often faced with the question “Yes, but how can you measure the results?”
In his presentation, resulting from his work, he will suggest that there are a number of myths in HR which inhibit the ability to give satisfactory answers to challenging questions about measurement. He will propose ways to dispel the myths and, as a result, provide better ways to answer the difficult questions.
