Author
Wright, Patrick M.; Snell, Scott A.
Abstract
[Excerpt] Is HR at a crossroad? A number of signs seem to be pointing that way. Increasingly HR executives are faced with a critical decision: Will they continue on their journey to be business leaders, , with full sway and equal influence in organizational decision making, or will they take the short-cut by sacrificing professional ethics and values for a "seat at the table." This challenge is exemplified by the story of Delta Airlines.
