Whinging about wanting to be at the table? Or like an embedded TV reporter* in the hull of the tank? Let\u2019s take stock\u2026.<\/h3>\n<p>Business is changing and it is a fast moving ship \u2013 not an ocean liner that takes days to shift direction. Data and analytics are more than a trend. Cloud computing, i.e., SaaS is here to stay. Social media platforms prevail.<\/p>\n<p>And, all of these are more than touching HR processes, departments and professionals. HR is colliding with social, mobile and technology platforms and getting their ass kicked into a proverbial Boot Camp.<\/p>\n<p>So if you want to \u201chave a seat at the table\u201d bone up, hone up and get off the personnel round about and on to the HR super highway. Speed up, learn the new stuff, get embedded and assume the reins. Uncomfortable with financials \u2013 log on and learn how to read and interpret an annual report. Does the term \u2018big data\u2019 scare your socks off? Leverage your fear to learn what it is and how and when to use analytics to drive insights about your organization\u2019s human capital.<\/p>\n<p>Want a seat at the table? Get comfortable with a variety of technologies, learn the numbers, and dive in head first to have them do your heavy lifting so you can steer the <em>when<\/em> and <em>where<\/em> not just the <em>how<\/em>. Then grab a chair, saddle up to the table and help your organization to make sense of competing demands, accurately predict human capital needs, and become the HR Advisor known for uncovering human capital insights and empowering your company to act on your data-driven perceptions. Become seamlessly efficient with data, technologies and social media but not burdened by them.<\/p>\n<p>Whether the table is formal or casual, make sure it is set with cutlery, glassware, place settings and serving dishes that you are at ease with and know how to use. No fumbling with the service \u00e0 la russe. No eyes turning in two different directions wondering, \u201cDo I use the cutlery from the outside toward the plate or the other way around?!?!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll see \u2013 you\u2019ll like it at the table when you are confidently armored with technical skills that are driven by perceptive knowledge and guided by acute insights. So stop whinging and get armored to impart insights to your organization\u2019s successive human capital needs.<\/p>\n<p>Note:<br \/>\n* Thank you to Jeff Perkins, former VP\/CPO at NPR in Washington DC for the concept.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-xs-12 source-blog\">\n<p>Reference:<br \/>\nGherson, D.
