Dr Glensor mentioned how the HR Practitioners should acknowledge their role in the changing global economy and how fellow HR Practitioners need to become more involved in the management of employee risk and performance by assisting their employees to become their best brand ambassadors. The interview also focused on how HR can add more value to a business and with a more sensitive approach to employment equity and affirmative action, transformation in an organisation could then be adequately addressed.
