โœฆ Synopsis

Abstract

HR professionals must always be โ€œbecomingโ€ or constantly changing and adapting. For the last
decade, many have argued the business partner role as a complement to traditional HR administrative work. We
argue in this paper that HR professionals should move beyond partners to become players. HR professionals as
players are โ€œin the game, on the field, making a differenceโ€ through their HR work. In this article,
we suggest that to become players, HR professionals must learn to coach, architect, build, facilitate, lead, and
provide a conscience to business leaders. Specific knowledge and tools for each of these roles are described.
