People are the most important part of any business, and to that end, the HR function can and must play a role in driving value, in its myriad forms, for businesses.

In this episode of The HR Leader Podcast, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with consultant Jane Edgar (who has served in senior HR roles in numerous major Australian businesses) about the importance of HR’s role as an enterprise value driver, what has held HR back from fulfilling certain functions over the years, why the current climate provides a window for HR to showcase its worth, and the questions HR needs to ask of itself in being an enterprise value driver.

Edgar also delves into the practical steps HR needs to implement to drive value, hurdles standing in the way of HR’s success, navigating time constraints, lessons she’s learnt from running a P&L, taking a holistic approach to creating value for the business, and what excites her about the prospect of HR being more of a value driver.
