When Cognizant fell in love with the human resources function! Check this article by Cognizant: An Evolving Profession: 21 New HR Jobs to Watch For (cognizant.com)
Yeah, I call it a "function" after CEO coach and mentor Ram Charan asked us to keep the function while letting go of the "department"!Have a look at these 21 jobs (or roles or tasks within those roles?)
It looks like Cognizant pulled out more pigeons than it could manage, and then searching holes for them appears to be a rehabilitative act!
Honestly speaking, HR needs introspection rather than acts of deception!
Our MEA S Jaishankar said, "Europe will have to come out of the mindset that Europe's problems are World's problems, while World's problems are not Europe's problems! "
Likewise, ladies and gentlemen of HR (and other adorable pronouns as HR wears), many HR's problems are not organizational problems!
Dave Ulrich invoked HR as a function of change makers, trend setters, culture curators, employee advocates, catalysts, Business Partners, etc. But soon, HR, after lots of demands of learning and knowing business first, chose to remove the business part from the HRBP and adopt the people-people-partner role! HR shall look within and ask if they are really ready for the 21 new #metaverse avatar roles that this time Cognizant is invoking. (You should check if Cognizant's own HR team picked these avatars in the first place.)
Having said that, Cognizant has highlighted the high touch points (in the name of jobs) that HR will care about. They are all real and need attention.
