02

Function

Understand how HR operates

03

Capability

04

Measurement

Make HR’s value visible.

HR earns influence when its value can be demonstrated.

What is expected from HR has changed. Strategic clarity, the right operating model, the capabilities to deliver and the evidence to demonstrate results now matter as much as the initiatives themselves.

Vera HR Excellence helps HR leaders understand where the function stands, what the business requires from it and what needs to change.

Where does your HR function need clarity?

Each service looks at a different part of HR effectiveness – from strategic direction to the evidence that shows whether the function is delivering.

SERVICES

Strengthen the HR function where it matters.

Four services focused on strategy, function, capability and measurement.

Most people strategies are a catalogue of HR initiatives rather than an answer to the business strategy.
VERA works with HR and business leadership to identify where people make or break the strategy and build the people agenda around those priorities with clear ownership and outcomes the board can follow.

RIGHT FOR YOU IF

Your business strategy is clear but your people strategy is a list of HR projects and the connection between the two is asserted rather than demonstrated.

WHAT YOU GET

  • A people strategy derived from the business strategy, not run in parallel to it.
  • A prioritized people agenda: what matters most, in what order, and why.
  • Clear ownership and measurable outcomes for every strategic priority.
  • A strategic narrative HR can defend in the boardroom.

Every HR transformation starts with an assumption about the current state. The HR Audit replaces that assumption with evidence.

It begins with VERA’s HR Maturity Assessment and develops into a broader review of how the function is organized, what it delivers, what it costs and how well that matches what the business needs.

RIGHT FOR YOU IF

You are planning to transform, restructure or invest in HR and want the decision built on evidence rather than impressions.

WHAT YOU GET

  • A clear maturity verdict on the HR function where it stands today and what the next stage looks like.
  • Strengths worth protecting and gaps worth closing, named specifically.
  • A clear view of how HR's delivery matches what the business actually needs.
  • A prioritized improvement roadmap, sequenced by impact.

An ambitious people agenda can fail when the team executing it does not have the capabilities it requires.
Vera HR 360 Competency Assessment measures the capability of HR professionals as experienced by the people they serve rather than relying only on self-assessment.

RIGHT FOR YOU IF

HR is delivering real work and cannot yet show it and “we believe it’s working” is no longer an acceptable answer.

WHAT YOU GET

  • The metrics that matter, selected from a library spanning every area of HR and curated to your strategy.
  • Executive-ready dashboards and a reporting the board can follow.
  • Baselines and targets that make progress visible and claims defensible.
  • A measurement discipline the HR team owns and sustains.

HR earns credibility when its work is measurable.
Measuring HR establishes the indicators, dashboards and reporting that connect people work to business results and make HR’s contribution visible to executives.
A scorecard of everything measures nothing.
