Welcome to the Pre & Onboarding Summit 2021, where Gitte Mandrup, the author of Forretningsdrevet HR (Business-Driven HR), shared with us some important insights on the essence of working with business-driven HR. She mentions that whether the company goes up or down in profit, Business-Driven HR will never be out of style. This is a way to ensure that companies generate revenue and value no matter the circumstances.
Gitte discussed how organisations can take full advantage of the HR team, how you can use your skills and capacity wisely, how HR can communicate properly what value you generate from various activities, the ROI of HR activities, and how you can establish a strong link between HR and the business. Gitte has more to share. Get her insights here.
We (HR) fail to communicate the value we actually generate, and this is why I would like to give you some input on how to achieve this.

That afternoon we took the main leap into the necessity, understanding and effect of good and employee-oriented Pre & Onboarding. We also invited some of Denmark’s sharpest HR professionals to present and answer your questions, reflections and comments. Among them, Ulf Hahnemann, former CHRO at A.P. Møller Mærsk, shared with us really insightful thoughts and hacks.
We must go in and work with our organization, do different things that work and then we get better results. And this is what business driven HR is about.
