I\u2019m not sure anyone knows what HR 2.0 actually is.\u00a0 I\u2019ve taken my shots a few times, but more often than not I\u2019ve been talking about HR\u2019s role in innovation.\u00a0\u00a0 Terrance<\/a> pointed out a conversation that\u2019s been going on at Linked-in that I found interesting.<\/p>\n

First, there\u2019s a guy over there that is claiming to have created the concept of HR 2.0.\u00a0 This is like Gore and the internet.\u00a0 (I like Al BTW)<\/p>\n

The response that really interested me though, was this one:<\/p>\n

If HR 1.0 has been characterised by a focus on the individual (performance management, talent management), HR 2.0 needs to focus on building social capital, at least in the UK and Europe where individualism is not the dominant force.<\/p>\n

By Social Capital I’m referring to the sum total of relationships within the business. In that sense, if what we might call HR1.0 has focused a lot on individual talent, HR2.0 (in Europe and the UK at least) will have to focus much more on building productive relationships.\u00a0\u00a0 ((Retrieved from Linked-in Answers<\/a>))<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I like this response because it doesn\u2019t really talk about the further transformation of the HR function.\u00a0 Sure enough, benefits can get better, and maybe we need to find better ways of managing performance and such.\u00a0 But the key is HR\u2019s growing involvement in what makes the organization actually work.\u00a0 I\u2019ve talked about innovation networks and collaboration networks.\u00a0 The author above is talking about the same thing \u2013 how we in HR can get involved with our employees to create relationships that are meaningful to the organization and it\u2019s product.<\/p>\n

What is web 2.0?\u00a0 It\u2019s the collection of collaborative technologies that happens to have manifested itself in the rewriting of the languages used to program it.\u00a0 At the core it\u2019s still the same, a collection of sites and addresses and content.\u00a0 But how those sites, addresses and content relate to each other and how we relate to them has changed completely.\u00a0 I believe it\u2019s the same for HR 2.0.\u00a0 HR may undergo some minor function transformation, but the real transformation will take place in how we and our customers relate and interact.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
