Episode 223 - HR Riskonomics and Running HR As A Business - with George Akle from GOVERNHR

The A Better HR Business podcast looks at how consultants and tech firms in the broad Human Resources field grow their businesses; and how they help employers get the best out of their people. Are you struggling to manage HR risks and run your HR function as a business? In our latest episode of ‘A Better HR Business’ podcast, we had the pleasure of talking with George Akle, founder of GOVERNHR. With their expertise in HR Riskonomics, GOVERNHR helps organisations address challenges like compliance, succession planning, crisis management, and tech implementation. They also assist in Running HR As A Business, aligning HR practices with strategic goals, and driving innovation and accountability. In this engaging conversation, George explains the two fundamental aspects of GOVERNHR™: HR Riskonomics and Run HR As A Business. HR Riskonomics involves strategically recognising and addressing risks within the HR function, such as compensation, employee turnover, vendor management, and technology implementation. On the other hand, Run HR As A Business focuses on aligning HR practices with an organisation's strategic goals and financial objectives. The discussion delves into the challenges that these approaches solve for employers, including compliance and legal risks, succession planning, crisis management, and efficient tech implementations. George shares his experiences in implementing these principles in various businesses around the world and emphasises the positive impact it has had on HR teams and organisations as a whole.
