As strategic leaders, human resource business partners (HRBPs) help their organizations answer business-critical (even existential) questions. HRBPs need access to all levels of an organization, from high-level strategy to operationalized tactics. They lead organizational design and culture, and lead change and transformation. However, the demands of the role often make it difficult for HRBPs to focus on their own development — and unlike other specialized HR areas, they rarely have access to robust peer communities.
Explore the HRBP Framework
Over the past year, we have collaborated with senior HRBPs, CHROs and business leaders from CAHRS' partner companies to design the World-Class HRBP Framework. This comprehensive model defines the key elements of the HRBP role and sets a clear standard for what “great” looks like. Built to address the realities of a rapidly changing workplace, the framework provides practical guidance to help HRBPs elevate their influence, drive strategic outcomes and lead with confidence.
Assess Your HRBP Capabilities
Put the CAHRS World-Class HRBP Framework into practice with the World-Class HRBP Assessment. The assessment helps HR business partners identify their strengths and development opportunities across the key capabilities in the framework.
After completing the assessment, you will receive a personalized report showing your results across the framework and highlighting areas to focus on as you continue developing as an HRBP.
Build Your HRBP Capabilities
Continue building your capabilities with the CAHRS HRBP Resource Library, a curated collection of research, tools, videos, and other resources aligned with the World-Class HRBP Framework.
Use the library to deepen your knowledge of each dimension of the framework, address specific development priorities and find practical ideas you can apply in your role.
