Why Lefkow is in the wrong zone.

Hi Folks,Hr department is considered as a cost centre that lacks innovation and R&D.

I partly agree with Dave as well as Gautam.
Recruitment function was decorated because industries became more skill intense; demand for talent and knowledge based workers are increasing due to growing competition.

The recruitment function was shifted from HR to other departments.
As per (IPD-1999) in UK organisation, line manager have important role in recruitment as compare to HR.
But still considers under the HR umbrella.

Presently, in the world of offshore outsourcing the HRO (Hewitt associate) emerges after IT and BPO. There is continuous demand for talent that resulted into RPO. The RPO arises due to some of its outsourcing features (non-core activities) like attracting, screening….. (os2i) and emerges as a separate entity. The RPO is in initial phase and continuously to grow.
But the performance of other functions will also grow.
The performance management is inherent in the organisation and required in all functions including RPO. All these separate entities are embedded together towards organisational goal.

Cheers
