Satisfied employees lead to successful companies. It is as simple as that.

What many realize, but what may not be so cut and dry in the eyes of management, is that HR executives remain one of the most critical components to a content and productive work force. And because of that – they should never be viewed as a department that operates strictly behind the scenes – or relegated as such.

In fact, a movement has been underway for quite some time to secure Human Resources’ spot at the boardroom table. More and more, businesses nationwide are beginning to realize that this unique department is composed of more than just glorified personnel wranglers who handle benefits issues, payroll responsibilities, and organizational demands.

Particularly now, as the country and its businesses begin to move forward in the wake of a pandemic, the need has never been more crucial. Human resource specialists engage with employees, helping them to feel satisfied and safe, while reinforcing a sense of purpose and productivity. They also ensure that your company’s efforts are aligned with local, state, and federal regulations.

But HR executives also foster open lines of communication between the highest levels of business, their managers, and the employees that they serve. They share a symbiotic relationship with leadership. And this relationship can be strategically leveraged to enhance the power of your company’s people.

If your business’s HR executives tend to be an afterthought where operational and long-term strategy is concerned, here are four reasons to reconsider your decision-making hierarchy.

HR executives:

• Add value, foster trust, and set your company’s specific tone.
• Drive cultural impact throughout your organization, which in turn affects everything from morale to reputation.
• Establish and monitor employee budgets.
• Attract, engage, and retain stellar talent.
