✦ Synopsis

New organizing factors are emerging as human resources professionals seek performance breakthroughs, with process and competency emerging as key facfors in determining how the H R function is organized. While the process focus rides the wave of interest in total quality management and reengineering, a growing number of organizations see competence as the key to enduring performance and to making H R most effective. This article combines experience from the authors' work with some emerging possibilities to describe a competency-based approach for designing a high performing H R organization.
